About the tutor

Hi there! I'm thrilled to introduce myself and share my journey as a music educator. My name is Ashlen de Armero, and I am passionate about teaching guitar, piano, and voice to students of all ages. Music has been a vital part of my life and, it's a privilege to help others discover their musical voices and express themselves through this beautiful art form. Music has been a vital part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was captivated by the melodies that surrounded me, whether it was my parents playing classic records or the sound of my friends jamming in the living room. As I pursued formal training, I not only developed my skills but also uncovered my calling as a teacher. The joy I felt when sharing my knowledge with others was unlike anything else. Watching a student's face light up when they finally grasp a challenging concept or successfully play a piece for the first time is a reward that never gets old. This experience solidified my commitment to music education, and I've dedicated myself to nurturing the next generation of musicians. Let's make beautiful music together! I am excited to meet you and help you unlock your musical potential, express yourself creatively and achieve your goals in a fun, inspiring and supportive environment.

Teaching methodology

To bring this philosophy to life, I incorporate a variety of teaching methods that encourage engagement and handson learning. I believe that music education should be an interactive experience, where students are not just passive learners but active participants in their musical journey. I often use exercises that promote creativity, such as improvisation and songwriting, allowing students to explore their unique musical voices. For younger students, I use games and playful activities that make learning fun and enjoyable. These methods help maintain their interest and motivate them to practice. For older students, I engage them in deeper discussions about music theory and the elements of songwriting, connecting lessons to their personal interests and favorite genres. This not only reinforces their learning but also cultivates a deeper appreciation for music. As a teacher I aim to be a supportive mentor, providing constructive feedback that inspires growth. I celebrate my students' successes, no matter how small, and encourage them to embrace challenges as opportunities for learning. It's all about building a strong foundation of confidence that allows them to express themselves freely through music.

Playing guitar for three years has involved both professional instruction and self-guided learning. Practice has centered on mastering chord shapes, fingerpicking techniques, and rhythmic patterns.

Singing has been a core part of life since the age of 8. Over the years, the voice has developed into a primary instrument, providing a personal means of expression.
