About your guitar teacher

I'm Brady Thomas, a passionate and dedicated guitar tutor with over 7 years of hands-on teaching experience. I specialize in personalized guitar lessons on acoustic, electric, and bass guitar. My areas of focus include mastering chords and strumming patterns, fingerpicking, improvisation, and developing a strong foundation in music theory and harmony—ideal for more advanced students looking to deepen their understanding. I hold a Bachelor's degree in music with minors in Latin and Mediterranean music, which allows me to bring a rich cultural perspective and stylistic versatility to my lessons. Whether you're a total beginner picking up the guitar for the first time or an experienced player aiming to refine your technique, I tailor every session to your goals, age, learning pace, and preferred genres. I'm committed to helping each student grow not only as a guitarist but as a well-rounded musician. Let's make great music together—I look forward to working with you!

Guitar lessons overview

My teaching methodology combines a strong emphasis on foundational elements—such as tone, phrasing, and rhythm—with a personalized, song-based approach that puts the student’s musical interests at the center of every lesson. I believe that expressive playing starts with mastering the basics, so I help students develop solid technique while breaking down complex ideas into smaller, achievable goals. This keeps progress clear, manageable, and motivating. Whether you're picking up the guitar for the first time or refining advanced skills, I adapt each lesson to your pace and needs. Just as importantly, I build every session around songs or pieces you genuinely want to learn. When students connect emotionally to the music, they practice more consistently, have more fun, and see better results. This approach not only reinforces theory and technique in context but also cultivates long-term musical growth, creativity, and confidence.

Guitar concept taught by Brady

Nombuso learned 5 days ago

Lesson date:

Brady Thomas taught Nombuso guitar, focusing on the One Direction song "Last First Kiss." They used a capo on the fourth fret and worked on chord transitions (C, Fmaj7, Am) and a specific strumming pattern involving downstrokes and muted upstrokes. Brady recommended practicing the strumming pattern with a metronome and will provide a visual aid in the next lesson.
