He is offering 1-2-1 guitar lessons to beginners/intermediate and advanced guitar students of all ages.

He DBS certificated so he can offer private lessons to children in a completely safe environment.

.

The lessons can be online, at his studio in Willesden Junction in London or in the nearby areas like Webley, Acton, Kensal Green, Kensal rise etc. At the studio there is all the necessary equipment to teach students to play guitar. I can also show you how to record and mix guitars tracks on Logic Pro X recording studio.

Music is something incredible, specially when you start to understand it! In this class I will go through the basics of music theory to help you understand the songs you choose to sing and teach you all the guitar basic for you to be able to take on a song and make it your own.

This class is specially suited for people who really want to learn how to play so they can play and sing and make real acoustic performances without needing backup tracks.

Somethings we'll cover in class:

- Guitar chords
- Building a chord on the guitar
- Learn how to use both hands in different ways and play with rhythm
- Play from your soul and not just because you've learn it!

Playing an instrument isn't a gift or a natural talent, it's a skill, like anything else. Anyone can learn to play an instrument, just as long as its something they really want to do!

Whatever pathway you want to go down, whether it be taking the grade exams and learning complex, elegant classical pieces, or if you're put off by the idea of having to read notation and would just like to to learn how to play/ the songs you love, and understand the inner workings of music, then I would love to help!

In my lessons, as well as going through how to actually play, I cover a variety of areas such as:

- Improvisation
- Playing by ear
- Ear Training & Aural skills
- Composition
- Harmony & Theory

Some of my favourite artists include Jimi Hendrix, D'angelo, Erykah Badu, John Mayer, Royal Blood, James Blake, Lianne La Havas, etc. A lot of soul music mixed with jazz, hip hop, funk etc. But generally I enjoy almost everything, from Rock to Rap to classical.

I'm a guitar student at ICMP London at the moment. For almost four years I've been dedicating myself completely to the guitar and all his surroundings, such as improvisation, tons of music theory, composing, producing, recording... I can give classes to anyone and any age. I have 2 years of experience giving music classes. Thanks a lot for reading!

My name's Luca and I've been a full-time professional musician for the past 10 years. I mainly work as a session musician and recording artist/producer, and also as a private guitar tutor.
My goal when it comes to teaching is to share my knowledge and passion for music and to help you improving and having as much enjoyment from it as I have for it.

I base my lessons on my student’s ambitions and on their weaknesses, so they can improve quickly and efficiently, without loosing interest on the instrument, and so they can reach their goals, giving them a personalised lesson plan, having fun and playing different styles and techniques. Everyone is welcome to join my teaching plan if they want to spice up their playing or simply start from scratch.

I specialise in all popular musical styles, such as Pop, R&B, Funk, Jazz, Rock and more, on both electric and acoustic guitar. I'm extremely passionate in music theory, composition, arranging, and also music production. If you're interested in developing your skills in any of these areas, please don't hesitate to get in touch!

I believe that anyone can play guitar.

We don't all arrive through the same path, and rarely with the same goals in mind, but I do believe we can all do it if we are willing to put in the time.

Are you a parent looking for a teacher for a youth's first instrument?
Perhaps you have always wanted to try the guitar but had countless excuses not to?
Maybe you are already a player but you wish to improve and feel stuck playing the same things?

Among other things, I can teach you:

*How to play chords and scales
*Music theory and how to apply it on the guitar
*How to transcribe a guitar part
*How to rearrange a song for the guitar
*Sound and effects
