Guitar lessons overview

In my personalized guitar lessons, I prioritize building a strong foundation before delving into advanced techniques. Understanding fundamentals like fretting and string muting lays the groundwork for mastering the guitar. My approach is rooted in expressive musicality, engaging students through technique-focused sessions while incorporating ear training for a well-rounded learning experience. I cater to college-level students, aligning my teaching with curricula such as A-Levels, AP Program, IB, and college-level standards. Leveraging tools like amp simulators, metronome apps, and PDF sheet music, I create interactive lessons that enhance musical comprehension and skill development. By emphasizing musicality over speed, I guide students towards not just playing the guitar but becoming versatile musicians ready to excel in a band or explore other related instruments like the bass guitar.
