My teaching approach for Guitar encompasses a blend of expressive musicality, sight reading, creativity, engagement, and ear training. I cater to various levels, from kids to adults, beginners to advanced players, ensuring personalized learning experiences for all. I leverage tech tools like Amp Simulators, DAWs, and Guitar Tuner Apps to enhance practical learning. While following diverse curricula like A-Levels, AP Program, and IB, I focus on nurturing technical skills and fostering creativity in performance and composition. With a student base of 50+, I create a collaborative and motivating environment to help students enjoy and excel in their musical journey.

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.
