About the tutor

Hello! My name is Angela, and I am a dedicated guitar teacher with a background in musical composition, having studied at the Los Angeles College of Music in California and the Sorbonne University in Paris. With over ten years of teaching experience, I provide fully personalized lessons tailored to each student's needs and aspirations, whether they are beginners exploring their first chords or advanced players refining their skills. My teaching philosophy blends foundational techniques like chords, scales, rhythm, and music theory with creative exploration, encouraging improvisation and self-expression to help students discover their unique musical voice. I’ve developed my own methodology that combines structured skill-building, engaging exercises, and goal-oriented progress to make learning both effective and enjoyable. Whether you dream of strumming your favorite songs, composing your own music, or mastering intricate techniques, my lessons are designed to inspire a lifelong passion for music while guiding you toward achieving your goals.

Teaching methodology

My teaching methodology is centered around creating a personalized, engaging, and comprehensive learning experience for each student. I believe in adapting every lesson to the individual’s goals, skill level, and musical preferences to make learning enjoyable and rewarding. For beginners, I start by focusing on the essentials such as mastering basic chords, scales, and strumming techniques. I ensure that each student develops proper hand posture and gains a solid understanding of music reading through easy-to-follow methods. As students advance, I introduce more complex techniques and deeper music theory. Rather than presenting theory as something abstract, I ensure that it is applied directly to the music the student is playing. I also encourage creativity by allowing students to experiment with improvisation, songwriting, and exploring various genres. This approach fosters individuality and helps students find their unique musical voice.
