    Expert Guitar Lessons: All Levels - Beginners to Advanced

    The key to fast progress on the guitar lies in developing good practice habits from the start. I teach a scientific approach to mastering guitar by learning how to train your fingers for physical mastery of the instrument, and learning how to practice effectively.

    I also focus on breaking down songs or techniques into manageable sections. This keeps things from feeling overwhelming and allows students to make steady progress, celebrating small wins along the way. We focus on getting the details right, playing slowly with intention, and ensuring that timing, tone, and technique are solid before speeding up.

    By developing these habits, students can make faster progress, avoid bad habits, and stay inspired throughout their learning journey.

    About Me

    I picked up the guitar at age 9, and by 12, I was already performing in local bars, backing up singers and other talents. Around that time, I helped form a funk rock band called The Lizard Slippers, where I played lead guitar and also wrote songs. By age 15, I spent a year at the Rimon School of Music to further my studies. At 19, I went on to form Vine, a professional events band that continues to perform today. It was during this period that I began teaching guitar.

    At 21, I developed tendinitis from playing too much, and spent nearly two years searching for a solution. That's when I discovered Jamie Andreas' approach to guitar playing, which completely transformed my technique. Her methods allowed me to play without straining my body, and not only did this help me recover from the tendinitis, but it also boosted my playing speed and efficiency. More importantly, it revolutionized the way I approach teaching.

    Since then, I've applied Jamie's methods with all of my students, and the results have been incredible. I've seen firsthand that with the right guidance, motivation, and commitment, anyone can become great at the guitar. Teaching has become one of the most meaningful aspects of my life, and I’m now fully convinced that, with the right tools, anyone can succeed on their musical journey.

    Education

    In 2016 I went and studied Guitar at Rimon School Music and sound engeneering at Pluto Studios in Tel Aviv which included recording, live sound mixing, and producing.

    Experience / Qualifications

    15 years of performing on stage and in recording studios, with a diverse range of musical styles and settings.
    6 years of experience teaching guitar to students of all ages, from beginners to advanced players, with a focus on developing solid technique and a deep musical understanding.

    Guitar Lessons - Jerusalem - Classical Guitar Lessons
    The guitar is a gentle instrument that touches people very deeply. Learning how to create that delicate art is difficult but achievable. Based on my own experience I create pathways for students to learn clearly and quickly; avoiding the many obstacles I faced when learning it. I've trained under the great guitar masters of Europe and studied at the Royal Conservatory of Antwerp and the Jerusalem Academy of Music. I recently founded the Science of Music method which teaches deep music understanding to anyone. I'm proud to have been teaching many people; facilitating deeper relationships to music.

    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.

Do you want to create your own sound on your guitar using amps, and pedals, ...? I can help you with all that!

The lessons would take place at my home in Mol or via webcam. If necessary, we can always agree on something else. Be sure to let me know if you have any questions and I will answer as soon as possible. See you soon! Richard PS: my specified hours are a guideline, if this does not suit you, you can certainly send us a message and we will try to arrange something :)
