Private Lessons
When is the right time to take lessons?
There is so much information online, available for anybody who knows how to search for it. Many of us spend hour and hours watching videos, reading blogs, and buying sheet music in the hopes that something will unlock that next stage in our growth. Despite this accessibility, so many feel stuck in a loop of gaining information but not knowing what to do with it.
This is where a teacher can offer their expertise, guiding you through the endless possibilities of what you could do, toward what you should do in order to help move toward your goals. They can help sift out what is important to know and more importantly, help you understand why.
If any of this resonates with you, then it may be time we get to know each other!
What to expect.
My lessons are all about you and your goals. I will do everything I can to help you reach them, offering insights, guidance, and support throughout the entire process. A very important aspect of my teaching is to build that human connection and one-on-one support needed to build confidence in yourself and your abilities. We are humans first, guitar players second.
What I offer:
Personalized lessons, exercises, and teaching, centred on your musical goals.
Compassion and an understanding of the learning process.
A wide ranging expertise, including topics of theory, composition, scoring, improvising, and recording.
Techniques such as thumping, selective picking, legato, finger picking, and chordal playing.
Lesson notes and organization to make sure we can always keep track of your learnings and goals.
20+ years of guitar experience including a Bachelors in Music (Jazz Guitar) and a Masters in Composition.
First steps.
If you are interested in having me as a teacher, or even just curious and want more information, you can book a free 20-minute consultation in which we can chat about lessons - no commitment necessary. From there, we can get any details set for moving into a regular lesson schedule.
If you already know you want lessons, great! You can contact me to let me know what you want to work on and we will figure out a schedule that works for you.
