Enhance your guitar skills. Master the Fundamentals blending theory and technique while keeping the fun in it!

Hello! I am Edgard Fonseca, a guitar tutor with over a decade of teaching experience, both in music schools and personal tutoring. I have studied modern music and jazz In Mexico and Barcelona earning a diploma in modern music and jazz in the latter. I also studied classical composition for a year in Mexico. I have 15+ years of playing experience all over the world (Nicaragua, Mexico, Spain, Australia, New Zealand, etc.) in various bands in various genres such as rock, jazz, metal. etc. I have also played as a showband guitarist in cruise ships, in which I was required to play almost every music genre and be proficient at sight reading. My lessons are personalized and adapted to the specific needs and objectives of the student. I teach electric guitar in a variety of genres (metal, jazz, rock, blues), jazz improvisation, music theory, solfege, audition preparation, sight reading. I teach from complete beginners to advanced students. Let´s start your music journey together!

My teaching methodology is built on personalization. I recognize that every student picks up the guitar for a unique reason and has a different schedule; therefore, I adapt every lesson to your specific goals and availability. I firmly believe that fundamentals are the cornerstone of musical mastery. Regardless of your preferred genre, we focus on building a rock-solid foundation before diving into specific stylistic nuances. To ensure a well-rounded education, I structure my lessons into four key pillars: 1)Fretboard Knowledge: Navigating the neck with confidence and theory. 2)Technique: Developing the physical dexterity to play with ease. 3)Reading & Ear Training: Learning to understand and internalize music. 4)Repertoire: Applying your skills to the songs you love. My curriculum is progressive and cumulative, ensuring that each lesson builds directly upon the last to create measurable momentum. Above all, I prioritize keeping the "play" in playing guitar. Music should never feel like a chore; my goal is to help you reach your potential while keeping the process engaging, rewarding, and fun.
