The method I developed for beginners focuses first on the pleasure and quick learning of essential concepts of the guitar. Not necessarily music theory! The basics of guitar and musical technique can be taught on a mix of intuitive and didactical.

The idea is to have fun playing your favorite songs but also discovering the main concepts that will allow you to be autonomous quickly.

For those who already have some experience but feel "stuck", my approach will be more focused on identifying difficulties and developing both theoretical and practical knowledge that will allow you to quickly fill your gaps. I will accompany you in studying pieces of increasing difficulty so that you can surpass yourself quickly!

I also give advice in case of purchase of instrument, and I am also available in case of questions.

Folk or classical acoustic guitar.

The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation.

For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...).

For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...).

Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points:

-Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear
- Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords
- Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand
- Learning of different pieces of your choice
- Left hand control exercises, speed and precision
- Learning arpeggios
- Work around muscle memory
- Learning improvisation, musical play with others
- Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used
-Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results
-Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument
- Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone
-Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge
- Learn tablatures / tabs & in English.

Note :
- Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase.
- As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy.
- Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.

THE TEACHER :
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

- ABOUT THE COURSES -
The courses are aimed at all levels.
Whether you have never touched a guitar or want to deepen your technical or theoretical knowledge, my teaching method adapts to your expectations in order to best accompany you throughout your learning.
Depending on the student's wishes, I also teach music production (computer-assisted music), as well as composition and arrangement

- ABOUT THE PROF -
Professional musician with more than 10 years of experience, I specialize in contemporary music, with an orientation in rock and blues derivatives. The atmosphere of my classes aims to be benevolent and relaxed, and I will listen to your needs in order to accompany you as best as possible.

From 2010, I took private guitar lessons at the BBM74 music school in Neuchâtel, with which I took part in several tours in the region.

In 2013 I formed a Rock n 'Roll trio from the 50s and 60s, with which we scoured concert halls, festivals, bars, and private parties throughout French-speaking Switzerland.

In 2018, I decided to go to England for 3 years where I obtained a Bachelor at the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance in London, and joined various live and studio projects. I had the opportunity to study all aspects of modern music with renowned teachers and musicians such as Martin Goulding (Guitar Techniques, Total Guitar, Guitar World) or Nate Williams (Jamiroquai).

I am also a composer for films and other media, disciplines that I studied with Audrey Riley (Muse, Coldplay, Foo Fighters).

It is on the strength of these many experiences that I offer you a holistic method allowing you to acquire the essential skills you will need, whatever your pretensions and your projects.
