Electric & Acoustic Guitar Lessons (Songwriting) [EN]

Àpd 30 € /h

Hi!

Have you ever dreamed of strumming your guitar to your own original songs, feeling that electric thrill of creating something truly yours? My name is Aleksi and I am a Berlin based guitar teacher, singer, musician and professional songwriter. I am offering private guitar lessons (EN) with an added focus on songwriting. With me you can learn techniques like:

🎸 Guitar Mastery: From basic chords and fingerpicking to advanced techniques like soloing and singing and playing at the same time. I'll help you become the guitarist you’ve always wanted to be.

📝 Songwriting Skills: Unleash your creativity and learn how to craft songs that resonate. From writing legendary lyrics to creating memorable melodies, I'll help you find your unique voice.

Whether you are a beginner (looking at a blank piece of paper and not knowing where to even start) or an experienced player (playing the same chords over and over again wondering what the next step is); my lessons are open to everyone with a love of music and a willingness to learn.

Lessons are provided in my dedicated home studio room near Sonnenallee.

I am really looking forward to hearing about you and what you are looking to learn!

Présentation

I am a professional teacher, guitarist, singer and songwriter who has been teaching and working in the music industry for over 9 years. I am originally from Finland but have been living in Berlin for 7 years. I love guiding my students on their musical journey and seeing their love of the craft develop as their skills improve.

The focus of my teaching is on individual development. That means no 'cookie-cutter' songs, instead we focus on the songs that you love and want to play. Each lesson is tailor made for the student and is centered on the songs and skills that you want to develop.

I believe strongly that your own enjoyment of your instrument and writing is the key to learning. If you are not enjoying what you are doing then taking the time and effort to improve is difficult. With my guidance I aim to expand your skills and help you find your inner voice.

Hello ! My name is Wassim I am a guitar teacher recently arrived to berlin, and I’m thrilled to List this class !
With 14 years of playing guitar and 5 years of teaching all ages (starting from 8 years old), I’ve developed a knack for making learning fun and engaging for my students.

I’ve recently written a book called "Modern Method of Learning Guitar," which will be published soon. It sums up my teaching philosophy and the program I’ve created over the years. I focus on interactive lessons that help students come out of their shells and really enjoy the process of learning music.

I co-founded a music school that’s been really successful back in my home town, Algeria. We had many students who all gave us positive feedback and achieved great results. And I can confidently say that while I don’t have an academic degree in music, my hands-on experience and deep love for music have more than prepared me for this role.

I’m a sociable person who loves creating a welcoming classroom environment. Seeing students grow in confidence and skill is the best part of my job. I’m excited about the possibility of bringing my passion and experience e to your learning process.

Thanks for considering my class ! I’d love to chat more about how I can contribute to your music Journey.

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.

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.
