Enjoy lessons from a caring instructor who uses both theory and personal creativity to guide your growth.

During their recent guitar lesson, Tomi and Ace focused on guitar practice, specifically covering finger exercises, major and pentatonic scales, and working through a song. Ace received personalized guidance on singing while playing, hybrid picking techniques, and chord progressions. Tomi assigned homework to practice specific song sections and review major/minor chord shapes, with their next lesson set for Wednesday at 2 PM.

Tomi and Erin kicked off their guitar journey with their first lesson, covering essential fingering exercises, common open chords, and basic strumming patterns. Erin then dedicated time to practicing chord transitions and began tackling "Knockin' on Heaven's Door," concentrating on rhythm and singing along. For her practice back in Fort Worth, Erin was tasked with refining the song, experimenting with a capo to discover a comfortable vocal register, and curating a Spotify playlist for Tomi to consider for future song selections.

Tomi provided a guitar lesson focusing on technique, including hammer-ons and pull-offs, rhythm, chord progressions, and the skill of singing while playing. The individual, who balances these lessons with their studies at Laney College in Oaktown, worked on specific songs like "Leila" and "I Really Want to Stay at Your House," and practiced chord transitions (C, G, Em, D). Tomi offered resources and guidance, with plans to continue lessons weekly.

A recent guitar lesson saw the instructor introduce various guitar techniques, including alternate picking and pentatonic scales, to a student attending West Wind Estates High School. The learner also began working on playing and singing "I Really Want to Stay at Your House," focusing on chord transitions and rhythm while singing. They plan to continue refining the song and vocal skills in their next lesson, scheduled for Friday.

Tomi and an individual from East Shore worked on guitar techniques, focusing on strumming patterns and song structure for "Millionaire," "Way of Your Word," and "I Want You in the Worst Way." Tomi provided guidance on simplifying rhythms, adjusting keys, and using body movement to enhance rhythm. Tomi will send the learner an audio file of "Millionaire" in a new key and a chart of common open chord shapes.

Tomi Insaurralde and Ace Cruz had a guitar lesson covering dexterity exercises, minor pentatonic scales, and learning the song "Castaway." Ace practiced various exercises with a focus on rhythm and picking techniques, explored different shapes of the minor pentatonic scale, and began learning the chord progression and finger placements for the song. They scheduled the next lesson for Thursday at 2 p.m.
