Derek Roland - Guitar lessons

FAST results in LESS time on guitar: you've come to the right place. Demonstration, implementation, leading to your transformation! Using easy methods 'outside the box' and getting you equipped with the right mindset and toolset to build your skillset, you'll gain a lot of skill in a short time!

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced player looking to refine your skills, I am here to help you achieve your musical goals! I'm Derek Roland. I've been teaching others guitar for over 20 years; and have been playing myself for 27 years. This is a fantastic opportunity for you to be guided by a player who has taught literally thousands over the years; and has lived and taught internationally. Over a span of time, I developed a formula for better results when practicing- one to maximize time, two to maximize outcomes of better playing. You may have gotten overwhelmed in the information age, or plateaued, or maybe get confused trying to figure out how things work together on guitar- but it doesn’t have to be that way. You’ve come to the right place to make all those connections second nature in your playing. I went to school for Guitar in Jazz Guitar Studies and started instructing professionally while going to college. On the side, I write guitar E Books, create songs and instructional material. My teaching style is motivational, interactive, and focused on problem-solving within the realm of music.

brian roark - Guitar lessons

Transform your musical journey with personalized guitar instruction from a seasoned professional with over 30 years of experience. From beginner basics to advanced techniques, I'll help you achieve your musical goals through proven teaching methods and individualized attention.

Greetings, I am Brian, a seasoned guitarist and dedicated music educator with over three decades of experience in performance and instruction. My musical journey began in a family deeply immersed in music, where my brothers introduced me to the guitar in the mid-1980s. This early exposure ignited what would become a lifelong passion and profession. After receiving my first guitar in 1985, I devoted myself to mastering the instrument, culminating in the start of my teaching career in 1990. From 1993 to 2005, I established myself as a professional musician, contributing to over ten albums and participating in numerous recording sessions across multiple studios. These experiences allowed me to collaborate with diverse musicians while performing at venues throughout various states, enriching my understanding of different musical styles and performance techniques. Although I transitioned from professional performance in 2005, my commitment to education has only strengthened. I have since dedicated myself to teaching, expanding my expertise beyond music to include martial arts instruction (2005-2020) and English as a Second Language education. This diverse teaching background has enhanced my ability to connect with students of all ages and skill levels, from beginners taking their first steps into music to advanced players seeking to refine their technique. My teaching philosophy centers on personalized instruction tailored to each student's individual goals and learning style. I continuously strive to enhance my teaching methods, drawing from my extensive experience and cross-disciplinary teaching background. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute to your growth as a musician and artist.

The value I receive from every guitar session consistently exceeds my expectations. Jackson arrives with a structured approach, yet he's also flexible enough to explore my spontaneous musical interests. I recall once being curious about the blues, and he instantly illustrated a 12-bar shuffle pattern along with a neat riff to work on. His profound musical understanding means that any inquiry I pose is met with either an explanation or a practical demonstration.

Every class seamlessly connects to the previous one, ensuring I always understand how the pieces fit together. However, this structure isn't inflexible; if I encounter difficulties, Chandler readily adjusts our focus and dedicates time until I grasp the concept. She possesses an excellent intuition for knowing when to advance and when to reinforce previous material, which has enabled me to improve consistently without ever feeling bogged down.

It's been wonderful watching my 10-year-old's musical journey blossom through her guitar lessons. Her instructor possesses a remarkable talent for working with young learners, demonstrating endless patience and a consistently cheerful attitude. Bodhi has a knack for selecting enjoyable tunes that truly capture her interest. Each session seems to bolster her self-assurance, and she's even taking the initiative to practice independently, driven by a desire to showcase her skills to her tutor.

My aim in taking acoustic guitar lessons was to accompany my singing with strumming, and my tutor Sias has excelled in this area. We concentrate on well-known acoustic tracks that resonate with me, and he's shown me various rhythmic strumming techniques along with fluid chord transitions. Ultimately, these lessons have perfectly fulfilled my initial aspirations.
