Guitar Lessons California

Instruments: Guitar, Violin, Viola

My method of teaching is simple. My first step is to determine the student's playing level by asking them to play something they like, it can be anything! My second step is to ask them what they want to learn, what they want to accomplish with music, and their life goals. After we have gone through this diagnosis we proceed to schedule regular weekly lesson either in person or online, or hybrid. Read More

Since 2006 I have been teaching vocals in music schools and for the last 5 years as private vocal coach in my home studio and in a second studio location. I have been teaching in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Orange County and Austria and am very passionate about singing and vocal coaching. I want to share my experience and expertise with my students and help them develop their voice and become the best singers they can possibly be and most imporatantly have fun with it. I always encourage my students to participate in recitals, sing and play in bands, choir, musical theaters etc to explore as many genres as possible and experience different situations like recording in a studio and performing live.

Instruments: Guitar, Bass Guitar

I let the student drive the lessons if they have some experience. If they like Led Zeppelin then I will find a way to use Zep licks and solos to teach them the basics of the instrument to the advanced understandings of solos. For beginner students I always start with basic chords, chromatics, and ways to warm up. I often use the CAGE system when starting with beginners so they will get the basic chords and understand how they are applied all over the neck of the guitar. Read More

Instruments: Guitar, Voice, Music, Acoustic Guitar

It has become very addictive to me to see my students succeed. It is not all about them learning how to play an instrument, but also to have them believe in themselves. Trusting they can go beyond and know they can learn more than they could possible imagine. My students gain a lot of confidence when this happens. This does not happen from one day to another, but with a lot of discipline, effort, dedication and love for the music and the instrument that will make the sound become music. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 8 years ago, and have been constantly teaching students in my home studio for last 3 years. Also I have experience teaching in a non- profitable organization " SLAM", where I thought middle school children. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the students progress and gain a passion for the instrument.
