    How To Play Guitar - For Serious Learners of All Levels

    I believe that anyone can play guitar.

    We don't all arrive through the same path, and rarely with the same goals in mind, but I do believe we can all do it if we are willing to put in the time.

    Are you a parent looking for a teacher for a youth's first instrument?
    Perhaps you have always wanted to try the guitar but had countless excuses not to?
    Maybe you are already a player but you wish to improve and feel stuck playing the same things?

    Among other things, I can teach you:

    *How to play chords and scales
    *Music theory and how to apply it on the guitar
    *How to transcribe a guitar part
    *How to rearrange a song for the guitar
    *Sound and effects
    *How to improvise
    *How to accompany a singer

    Regardless of where you're coming from, or where you want to go with it - I will be happy to help learn this wonderful instrument.

    Guitar lessons, music theory and its practical applications
    I have been teaching music and guitar for decades, privately and in music schools, and my approach starts with the student and his needs. In my experience those needs, together with goals and expectations, change with time and I can help my students determine what they want to achieve and how to best get there. I also find that there isn’t one way that works for everybody and I enjoy creating space for students to explore what music and the instrument mean for them. Please be aware that I am a working musician and in order to support my student while I do the profession, a degree of flexibility on times and schedule might be needed

    Giovanni
    Giovanni is a Guitar Teacher based in Brent , London
    Giovanni started playing the guitar when he was 6 years old and he never stopped thanks to his passion and his devotion to music. He has played with many bands and artists and has also played on a TV talent show in Italy. He has taught for many years to students of all ages and in several different music schools. In 2016 he moved to London to study music performance at ICMP and to achieve a BA Hons 1st Class in performance and music composition. He is offering 1-2-1 guitar lessons to beginners/intermediate and advanced guitar students of all ages. He DBS certificated so he can offer private lessons to children in a completely safe environment. . The lessons can be online, at his studio in Willesden Junction in London or in the nearby areas like Webley, Acton, Kensal Green, Kensal rise etc. At the studio there is all the necessary equipment to teach students to play guitar. I can also show you how to record and mix guitars tracks on Logic Pro X recording studio.

    Piano lessons - music theory and harmony - for any level
    I teach for all levels, from children starting from zero to students who want to prepare certifications at the Conservatories, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I firmly believe in the importance of knowing how to read music and this is exactly what I teach first, obviously adapting the method to the age of my students: knowing how to read music is knowing one more language, which, if learned well, won’t ever be forgotten (like riding a bicycle!) and it is an invaluable wealth. Starting from that point I teach the position of the hand, the arm and the whole body at the piano, the fundamentals of the piano technique (giving great importance to the percussive movement of the finger and the distribution of weight), the understanding of musical language, the expression of the personality through the keyboard, the search for touch and knowledge of piano repertoire.

    Lydia
    Piano Lessons in Classical and Contemporary Styles for Beginning-Advanced Levels (ages 6 and up)
    Welcome to my piano teaching studio! I am a professional pianist offering private piano and theory lessons for students of all levels. As a pianist with over 14 years of teaching experience in Europe and the USA, as well as over 23 years of playing/performing, I enjoy motivating my students with music of their own preferred style and interest, whether that be classical or contemporary. My main goal is to promote a positive experience and love for music-making during the learning process. If the student is interested in a more structured approach, I guide preparation for grades 1-8 of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM) piano and music theory exams where my students consistently receive highest marks. I also have successful experience preparing students for conservatory entrance auditions, masterclasses, and competitions in the Europe, the USA, India, and Canada. We have class concerts at Pianos Maene for interested students twice per year. I am happy to provide either a more relaxed or a serious approach to learning piano, we simply need to discuss the personal goals and preferences of each student. My own studies are as follows: I have obtained two postgraduate performance degrees at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp: "Concertsoloist" in Piano Performance and "Chamber Music” (under the guidance of esteemed professor Sergei Edelmann). Prior to this, I received my Bachelor and Masters degrees in Piano Performance/Music from the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis (with Prof. Lydia Artymiw) and Texas Christian University, Fort Worth (with Dr. Tamas Ungar). My experience includes collaboration with many different instrumentalists and singers, performing as a soloist and collaborative member in several orchestras, and receiving top prizes in several competitions. While maintaining my performance and recording career in Belgium at present, I am developing my private music studio in central Antwerp and look forward to meeting new students.
