Guitar concept taught by Paula
Paula Robinson conducted a piano lesson with a student from Dallas. During the lesson, they reviewed the student's arrangement of "So Long London," delved into 1-4-5 chord progressions common in rock and roll and blues, and practiced several ABBA songs. Paula encouraged the individual to create a setlist and prepare for potential performances. Future plans include continuing work on current songs and exploring new material, such as songs by The Beatles.

This has been an amazing journey of learning. Robinson doesn't just show me how to play; they also explain why specific techniques are effective. I'm from Old farm and having a teacher like them here is a blessing. Their emotional phrasing technique helped me with my solos.

In Hamilton Proper, Robinson worked with a 13-year-old guitarist, helping her progress from basic strumming to shredding solos. Thanks to Robinson ’s speed drills and scale practice, the student now plays metal solos with precision.

With her infectious energy in downtown, Robinson creates a warm and engaging atmosphere in every lesson. My child picked up strumming, capo techniques, and dynamics while learning popular songs.
