Beginner to Advanced Lessons for Guitar Players for all ages

Van 23 € /h

After dedicating 14 years to mastering the guitar, I've developed a comprehensive understanding of guitar playing, encompassing both foundational techniques and advanced music theory. In these lessons, I'll be sharing the wealth of knowledge I've accumulated over this extensive period of learning.

I will be covering a broad range of guitar techniques, including fingerpicking, strumming techniques, major and minor chords, power chords, barre chords, riffs, scales, finger warm-ups, practising any song of your choice, string bending, pull-offs, hammer-ons, harmonics, strumming patterns, and slides. All are provided with diagrams etc.
For music theory, I will begin by covering the fundamentals, including notes, strings, and the musical 12-note chromatic scale alphabet on the guitar. As students progress, we will delve into more advanced topics such as tones, semitones, chord progressions, circle of fifths, scale formulas and chord terminology. Additionally, we will explore concepts like consonance and dissonance and pitch practice to develop relative pitch. (You have to be born with perfect pitch but you can learn relative pitch with practise!)
Then advancing to jazz theory, we'll explore; jazz scale formulas, jazz chord progressions, swing techniques, major and minor 7th chords, major and minor 9th chords, dominant, augmented, half-diminished, diminished, sus2 and sus4 chords. And then jazz scales and the art of re-harmonising a song (changing the chords to jazz chords). All music theory will be intertwined with guitar practice as both can't be done without the other!

One observation I've made while learning guitar through lessons is that information is often doled out incrementally, making it feel like a breadcrumb trail. Guitar knowledge and skills seem to be closely guarded and usually gatekept unless actively sought out. I strongly believe that the extensive knowledge I've acquired over 14 years of playing should be fruitfully shared in a more comprehensive and accessible manner, of course while being tailored to the pace of the students. In essence, I'm convinced that the depth of my understanding I've gained could be effectively conveyed and learnt within a two-year timeframe without including the time it takes to master the skill with practice, of course, I'd like to make it easier for people to learn the guitar and the theory behind it.

I have also graduated with a distinction for my Music Performance and Production UAL Level 3 Course and a distinction in Fashion Communication which included my music playing at Central Saint Martins. I also have experience teaching guitar in London and Bristol before.

The lessons will be taught in English so practising your English with me is also a plus, a foundational knowledge of English is required to take the lessons.

Over

I've taught in Paris since April and have enjoyed teaching guitar in my free time here. I've felt as if this is a nourishing experience and has made me unlock an ability within me that I like teaching. I've also felt a lot of satisfaction seeing my students progress pretty fast over a small amount of time. I like to see my students do well and help push them in any way I can. I also like to extend my teaching hours for students if they need any extra help. I also send practice tasks for them to practise at home and luckily I've enjoyed the whole experience as a guitar tutor. I like students who are set on wanting to play the guitar to get to a certain level, I love determined students and people who thrive in musically creative environments and have the same passion for music and playing the guitar. I also curate your lessons to fit your pace, your level and your taste in music in the best way I can. All my students in the past have mentioned they have enjoyed having lessons and have learnt a lot that they could not learn from online or other teachers. I'd like to take pride in making sure the right full information is given and that they understand completely before moving on to learning more. I don't like missing out on anything. My lessons are quite laid back, and chill yet firm and well-informed. If you have any questions about my lessons, let me know before you book with me.

In the first lesson Younes asks some questions about your experience with playing the piano, what kind of music (genre) you like, and what you encounter while playing the piano.

The lessons are positive and solution-oriented, we focus on what you need and want to achieve. Furthermore, Younes will give an introduction and the basic techniques if needed, and then the intention is of course to play :)
