Guitar/Bass/Ukulele Lessons! Over 15 years of teaching experience

A partir de 31.62 $ /h

My main teaching philosophy is to teach students to play the music they enjoy. It sounds like a no-brainer but I have had teachers in the past who only showed me songs that they enjoyed or used method books that teach you "Mary Had A Little Lamb" or "Hot Crossed Buns" (and if you like those songs then we can learn those). All that to say, whatever the student's goal on the instrument, I will take them step by step until they reach it.

For a beginning musician, the fundamentals of the instrument are given the highest priority: how to tune your instrument, names of all the notes, essential chords, basic strumming, playing in time, and understanding basic rhythm. For someone who already plays but needs a little help getting out of the rut, we'll spend time fixing bad technical habits, hammering home the fundamentals, expanding their repertoire, and slowly moving outside of the comfort zone to new horizons. With advanced players, listening (ear training), transcribing, song analysis, exploring advanced theory concepts, and focusing on composition and improvisation are most important.

With all levels of students, I make playlists that I update after each lesson so they can hear real examples of what we are covering, as well as provide detailed written notes in TAB and standard notation so they can refer to everything we covered and know what to practice. Also, it's fun!

Acerca de mí

I began playing electric guitar in my early teens inspired by the pop-punk music of the time which I quickly dropped once I heard Jimi Hendrix. Soon I was playing poor covers of classic rock tunes with some buddies of mine, but we eventually got a little bit better and wrote a few of our own tunes and made it into a Battle Of The Bands and were even featured at an international music festival!

After high school, I went onto study classical guitar and composition. In my university days, I had a very inspiring, multi-genre teacher who taught me jazz and improvisation, and was able to play in the university Big Band until I graduated. Along with classical recitals, I also performed with my jazz quartet (and sometimes octet depending on who was around) at bars, weddings, corporate functions, banquets and pretty much any gig we could get.

After graduating I moved to Montréal and began to focus more on writing and recording original music. I played with a few different groups (even a gypsy/klezmer band), backed singer-songwriters, and even played the odd jazz gig on bass. My band of several years have released two EPs, a slew of singles, and are expecting to put out a full album in 2022. Currently I am living in Berlin, Germany and involved with several exciting projets.

P.S. For most of this time I have also worked as a guitar and bass transcriber for a few popular music learning websites and several prominent Youtube guitar channels which has exposed me to many styles and playing techniques, so whatever style you are into, I can teach it!

Hi, I’m Andrea!
I’m a professional classical guitar performer and educator from Sydney, Australia. I have been developing my music teaching business for over 9 years, through which I teach a wide range of styles, levels, and ages. Lessons are specifically tailored to meet the needs of each student, whether the focus is on classical guitar performance, chords, pop/rock, or Spanish-style fingerpicking. Music theory, composition, songwriting, improvisation, sight-reading, and preparation for high school exams or University auditions are all options that can be incorporated into lessons.

I have plenty of experience with young children and teenagers as well as adults, from complete beginners to advanced players. My teaching philosophy is holistic in that I strive to help my students become well-rounded musicians with a range of listening, reading, improvisation, and analytical skills, while of course carefully choosing repertoire that will cater to the student’s taste as well as their abilities. Pop/rock guitar and jazz/blues improvisation are also options as well as classical training.

My method is based on each student in particular. It doesn't matter what your level is, I enjoy teaching people who have a commitment to music and art. The main topics we'll work on are: Recognizing the guitar fingerboard, technique, sound, ear training, transcribing, harmony and harmony applied to the instrument, and reading and studying the instrument through the music you like and chose.

In my 45-year career as a musician (guitarist, singer, and composer) I have always seen how music enriches our lives. In this sense, I am motivated to positively influence people around me through music and to get them to actively participate. Of course, I am interested in introducing children and young people to music. It is very exciting for me to witness how you have your first contact with tones and instruments.

With me, you get a seasoned musician with a sense of mission and empathy for the "future" musicians

Your favorite styles: Jazz, Rock, Heavy, Pop, Funk, etc.

Chords: All types, inversions, and drops applied to different styles.
Most used phrases and techniques, both melodically and rhythmically.
Arpeggios, the chords broken down in a practical way.
Scales and modes, to lose the fear of improvising.
Theory and material to suit the student and his objectives.

The classes are focused on the final aspirations of the student, both those who learn as a hobby, to play their favorite songs or those who consider a more serious and complete learning. The theory-practice balance will vary depending on this approach, from focusing the sessions on practical and concrete learning to the in-depth understanding of the exercises and their theoretical why.

Don't think about it, go ahead and embark on this incredible and fun path!

Hello 🙂
I am Dario, an Italian Berlin-based guitar teacher teaching in English, Spanish, and Italian.
I am offering private classes for individuals looking to:

Improve their playing technique
Find their feel with the instrument
Learn how to write songs
Learn how to improvise
Work on stage presence
Work on the interpretation of songs

In my classes we can focus on:
both left and right-hand technique
Songwriting
Improvisation
Performance
Psychology of playing
Body & Breathing Awareness Through Meditation

My sessions are open to singers of all levels and backgrounds and with all genre preferences (I *am* specialize in classical, pop, bossa nova, and jazz).

I offer sessions to all interested individuals, where we will together assess where you are at, and what you want to work towards. I will adapt my teaching to what can benefit you better: my job is to walk beside you and guide you through your own process of self-discovery and exploration, not only working on the guitar itself but also on the emotional implications of playing, often a very vulnerable act of giving and opening up.

If this sounds appealing to you, feel free to slide into my DMs for further info 🙂

I studied classical guitar at the Conservatorio di Musica Italy, and have a Bachelor's in International Relations.
I have a certificate in Public Speaking Technique and attended various guitar masterclasses. I have been working as a professional guitarist, singer, and event organizer in Berlin. I also work as a professional podcaster and podcast editor.

Hi there! My name is Samuel, and I’m a Spanish guitar teacher offering private lessons.

I'm originally from Spain, and although my native language is French, I also speak English fluently, so communication won't be a problem at all. Lessons can be conducted in English, French, or Spanish, depending on your preference.

Alongside technique and repertoire, I incorporate music theory and harmony applied directly to the guitar, helping you understand what you play and why it works. This foundation will also allow you to explore other styles such as pop, Latin, or traditional folk, depending on your interests.

You can take lessons at your place, at my studio in Berlin, or online. Flexible scheduling is available.

I’m a professional musician with over 20 years of experience, having been trained at the Escuela de Música Contemporánea in Buenos Aires and holding a Master's degree in Creative Production from Berlin. I offer guitar and ukulele lessons tailored to your musical taste and goals.

I offer personalized guitar and ukulele lessons for all ages, designed to help students truly connect with their instrument. My approach is based on learning repertoire that the student genuinely enjoys, while developing strong technique and music theory in a practical and musical way.

A key element of my teaching is improvisation, as it allows students to connect immediately with the language of music, build confidence, and express themselves freely from the very beginning.

I also incorporate breathing exercises into my lessons to help students relax, improve focus, and develop a deeper physical and musical connection with their instrument.

In addition to instrumental lessons, I offer early music education for children aged 3 to 5, focusing on musical initiation through rhythm, listening, movement, and play in a fun and nurturing environment.

Lessons are available in Spanish, English, French, and German, and are always adapted to each student’s age, level, goals, and musical interests.

🔹 Format: Online or in-person
🔹 Lesson type: Individual or group classes
