I'm a firm believer in tailoring the lessons to the needs and interests of the student to ensure they make progress in the right direction whilst staying interested and challenged. This means that I'm interested in finding out how you want lessons to go, whether that be learning your favourite songs, learning new chords, studying technical skills, understanding scales, or something completely different.

My lessons are appropriate for beginner to intermediate students and I also teach songwriting and music theory lessons for those interested in learning.

Outside of classes, I'm open to discuss songs, technique, career goals, co-writing, learning resources or whatever else will help you develop as a musician.

I'm a professional songwriter, guitarist, and producer who has been playing since the age of six and have experience in an array of styles but predominantly focus on folk, indie-rock, pop, country, and R&B.

I'm an experienced tutor who has taught scores of students with a range of abilities, interests, ages, and backgrounds.

I am a graduated music teacher and professional orchestra musician, have an experience over fifteen years playing in symphony orchestra and opera theatre, teaching children privately and in schools to play on several classical instruments including double bass, piano, singing, classical acoustic and bass guitars. I am a very dedicated and extremely passionate about music and possess the ability to inspire children and adults.

Performance coaching covers many areas, from being in a band to public speaking and simply developing confidence in daily life.

I teach guitar and other instruments, singing, songwriting, song arranging, stage presence techniques ( yes it can be learned!) and many more aspects to bring out the best of each individual, tailoring each class to the specific needs and goals of the student.

Whatever you wish to achieve, whether it be learning a new instrument or skill to performing on stage or preparing for auditions, this unique approach to custom designed classes has been successful and it would be my honour to share my knowledge with you!

In this class, we'll be looking at the necessary building blocks of the modern guitarist. These topics will include chords, melody, guitar technique, composition and improvisation. Whether you look to implement these skills in jazz or rock, the skills learnt here are applicable to all genres of music.

Nothing is more important for making music that understanding how music works.
From the basics of tempo to sheet music analisys, we will open up the nature of music composition and it's effect on people, as well as learning basic guitar or piano if that is your wish.
I believe it is important to learn music from someone that has true passion for it, someone that would pass it's personal knowledge onto it's student.

Hello! I'm a 16 year old student who has just finished school who is looking to help teach people how to play guitar. Guitar and music in general has always been a life long passion for me and therefore I am interested in helping spread the joy of guitar to others. I have a lot of free time as I have finished school now so I can have a very flexible schedule and will most likely be available at any time. About my guitar journey, I've been playing the guitar for 5 years now and have received a merit in grade 8 acoustic guitar. Now I am currently working to achieve my diploma in electric guitar and therefore can be of help in teaching either acoustic or electric. I have had past experience in helping teach young children guitar, volunteering in the Red Rooster program at my school, Dartford Grammar School, in which I helped teach 7-11 year olds how to play guitar. Transportation won't be an issue as my parents are willing to drive me to wherever I need to be.

I hope I can be of service, Thank you
Ali

Hi music lovers,

My name is Juan Ignacio. I'm a multi-instrumentalist, guitar technician (I repair/build solid body and chambered guitars), music tutor and producer/mixer.

I have 23 years of experience as a guitarist and 18 of them have been as a guitar tutor (beginner, intermediate and advance).

I can teach you at my private studio or at yours. Each lesson will be unique, fun and creative. I will provide you tools which can be applied to songs you love, while we'll be also working on developing important skills such as improvisation, understanding music theory, chords, scales and much more.

What would I ask from you? Passion and commitment.

Send me a message if you dare to enjoy learning guitar!

All the best,

Juan

TUTORING EXPERIENCE:

I've worked as a music tutor providing private lessons and also for different music agencies in London (UK) including: London Music Centre, London School of Music and Musiko Musika. I've delivered guitar lessons at Spotify (Charing Cross Office), different primary schools and kindergartens. In 2018, I taught Brit Award-Winners Bastille how to play the traditional Argentinian rhythms

BIOGRAPHY:

Juan was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina. At the age of nine he started teaching himself how to play guitar, bass, keyboards and drums; before joining local bands and performing around the country.

After studying sound engineering at the Universidad Nacional de Lanús, he worked as a live sound engineer and separately on a number of music productions in his home studio. He also trained as a luthier/guitar technician, building and repairing stringed instruments alongside his father, using his surname as a brand.

In 2014 Juan moved to London to develop his skills and connections. His passion and commitment to music led him to working at guitar repair workshops around the capital city, including Camden Town and the well-known Denmark Street. He repaired guitars for artists like the legendary Jarvis Cocker (Pulp), Mercury Prize-winner Michael Kiwanuka, Grammy-winners Mumford & Sons, and King Krule. He later taught Brit Award-winners Bastille how to play the traditional rhythms of his home country.

In 2017, Juan started composing a wide range of music genres for all kinds of audio-visual media productions, including advertising campaigns for: Samsung, Coca-Cola, MasterCard, Nesquik, Avon and Breil

At the same time, he played with a host of different bands as a guitarist, and busked around town. Juan was hired to work as a guitar technician at Abbey Road on live recording sessions. During this period spent in the studio, mastering engineer Wharton spotted Juan’s potential and encouraged him to focus more of his attention on writing, releasing and performing his own material

Extra information:
I can provide an electric, acoustic or classical guitar.

Music is a rewarding and special way to gain a specific skill set, whether it's as a hobby or a budding profession. Learning the guitar is a brilliant way to open your mind to new movements, sounds and thought patterns. Most importantly, it is a fun adventure to embark on, no matter your age or musical background!
Whether you want to be a rockstar, the next great songwriter or looking for a new activity to challenge yourself with, we can start here!

My name is Pouneh. I'm a guitarist, film composer, and music teacher :)
I graduated with a Master's and a bachelor's degree in "Classical Guitar Performance" and "Music Composition".
I have been teaching music for more than twenty years.
I am passionate about helping students achieve their goals and try to make the learning experience as fun and enjoyable as possible.
I have earned a Bachelor's degree in Performing classical Guitar from the University of Tehran and also I earned a Master's degree in Composition for Film and Media from Pulse College Dublin.

Teaching Style:
In this experience, students will learn everything about classical guitar playing with me.
I'm energetic. So, I promise to offer a great earning experience for adults as well as children.

Being an electric guitarist requires a lot of technical skills, fine motor skills, knowledge of the instrument, but above all expressiveness. To be a great guitarist and perform on stage as Hendrix did, you will not only need a lot of practice, but also to be very clear about where you want to go and have the specific tools at hand to achieve this goal.

Hello, my name is Sebastián, I have been a guitarist for 20 years, I have a master's degree in education and 10 years of experience teaching music.

I have designed this course to cover various techniques (alternate picking, legato, tapping, vibrato, bending, arpeggio, sweep picking, chord inversion, etc.), theory (scales, chords, harmony), knowledge of the fretboard, improvisation, and expression.

Guitar can become your great friend and companion. From solo performance of finger style ballads to joining other musicians to express yourself theres easy ways to learn and enjoy the process.

In the class we will jam and explore sound together with guidance of tracks you are inspired by, we breakdown what the songs are made of and integrate riffs, melodies, chord progressions all into one cohesive musical experience.

As a songwriter and producer myself I recommend to develop vocals along with learning your instrument.
Holistic approach to music gets you enjoying the process immediately

Depending on your personal goals, I am able to teach anything ranging from general music lessons that involves theory, composition, music technology etc. to instrumental classes which are fun and engaging. I teach from beginner to advanced levels.

Want to play guitar but no idea where to start? I can help!

I'm a jazz student at Trinity Laban Conservatoire going into my 3rd year- with extensive teaching experience ranging from preschool to pension, I have helped people to ace grade exams and pushed guitarists to understand music better. I currently have numerous happy guitar students, most of whom I have taught from their first time with the instrument.

I can teach right from the first stage, and help with grade exams if that's the route you choose to take. If not, I often do a more modern, non-graded path as well. I'm also equipped to help in passing theory grades, and very knowledgeable about music tech, recording, effects and gear!

Go on, give me a call!

I’m an experienced guitarist and I can help those of all abilities and ages looking to learn the instrument or develops their skills. I’ve been playing for 16 years and I’m well versed in most genres and styles of music.

I can support anyone looking to gain knowledge of harmony, chord melody, soloing, popular and unconventional song structure and style. Or if you want to learn other songs and build up your repertoire.

My musical background is primarily as a jazz guitarist, specialising in improvisation and composition. This is something I can work on with students once core skills are acquired.

I can also help get students get up to speed with their grade exams and offer musical theory support.

Aside from my
experience as a guitarist, I play in different bands as a Writer and composer. I have experience as a recording artist at Abbey Road studios and I can teach students about song writing and composition.
