When I started working with Octavian , I explained what exathy I wanted to learn and since then I've never had to request for any changes in the way the lessons were planned . I've felt so comfortable with the lessons that I never felt like I am a beginner.

At Cabrini Rowhouses, I found Octavian online electric guitar classes, and they were exactly what I was looking for. Initially, I thought online won't work, but Octavian proved me wrong, he taught me nuances soloing techniques and it really added to my personality!

Being from University Park, I wasn't able to find a tutor that would meet my daughter's need in learning guitar but we found Octavian . He breaks music theory down in a way my 12-year-old can actually understand and even enjoys! He’s now learning to build chords and understanding how scales work, all while learning pop riffs that keep him interested.

We came across Octavian Guitar lessons , and they’ve been amazing for my son. Octavian easy teaching style made practice something my son , incredibly helpful he is.he regularly sends us progress videos and shares simple, practical tips for supporting his practice at home which I’ve found incredibly helpful. It’s clear he truly cares about his students’ growth, and we’re so grateful for his guidance.

One of the best things about my tutor, Octavian , is how easily he breaks the techniques and concepts down for me, making it super easy to work with. Octavian is the best acoustic guitar tutor in Trafalgar, without a second doubt. he has guided me very well on how to whisper, shout, and sing through my guitar.
