I have taught guitar for over twenty years to students of all ages and talents, in individual lessons and groups. I first started in my native Barcelona at the Taller de Msics, where I taught college-level students, jazz guitar, improvisation, and small jazz ensembles. In the United States, I have taught private lessons, group lessons, and after-school programs in Brooklyn and Manhattan. All styles are welcome as many of the techniques are common to all of them, but I mostly focus on Jazz and classical guitar. Read More

I am very laid back as a teacher. I do not expect my students to train and rehearse like professionals. I simply give homework so as to remind what their path is and what is the best method to achieve their goals. The homework is also there to help work on the obstacles they will face in their training. I totally understand that this is a hobby and want people to develop a passion for music in their own time.

The best way to learn is by doing something interesting, so I use drills to help reinforce the songs students actually want to learn how to play. Read More
