Guitar lessons quick guide
My lessons focus on blending expressive musicality, creativity, and technique to enhance guitar skills for students at all levels—school, college, and adult/professional learners. I tailor my teaching to each individual's needs, leveraging tools like amp simulators, DAWs, and ear training software to create engaging online learning experiences. With a repertoire of over 50 students, I emphasize practical applications through chord diagram apps and loop pedals to deepen understanding of music theory and performance techniques. I steer away from rigid curricula like A-Levels or AP Programs, opting instead for a personalized approach that nurtures creativity and skill development. By incorporating metronome apps and PDF sheet music, I ensure a holistic learning journey that caters to diverse backgrounds and learning styles. My methodology's strength lies in its adaptability, making it ideal for anyone eager to master guitar playing effectively and enjoyably.

Taking guitar lessons with Matias Staton has completely transformed my playing. I’m now tackling solos that once felt way out of reach, and I can play most of them confidently.

Movie themes in fingerstyle guitar? My daughter plays them flawlessly now. Matias blends classical precision with contemporary music, and it’s been the perfect mix to keep his challenged and excited.

In New hills, my son had a fantastic time with Matias lessons. He expertly taught him everything from chord changes and scales to even introducing some jazz improvisation, all in a way that was perfectly suited for a 10 year old.
