Hi, my name is Luis, and I play acoustic and electric guitar. I have been a music teacher for twenty-five years. My musical influences encompass a diverse range, including classical music, jazz, blues, progressive rock, traditional Latin American music, and more. I mainly teach acoustic and popular guitar with classical technique. I also teach electric guitar, Solfege, music Theory, and Music Composition. So, my teaching style can best be described as helping the student discover his or her aptitudes and abilities through gentle guidance. My students like me to tell them that patience and persistence as a way to achieve a goal. Practice and perseverance are key to playing an instrument. My teaching philosophy can best be described by saying, “Don't give up, remember that failing is part of training. Failure is the natural path to success.” My favorite thing about teaching is that the students achieve their goals through enjoyable classes. My students love that I give them exercises, tasks, and pieces that they can play easily, to move forward. My approach to teaching music is dedication to the student and a passion for teaching. In addition, I tailor lessons to each specific student's case to meet the needs of each student at their learning level and age. I am committed to helping you grow by providing you with the support necessary for you to succeed. Thanks for taking a look at my profile. Hope to meet you soon!
