Whether it is songs you want to learn or music grades to prepare for, my lessons are tailor made for your enjoyment and progress.
I like to set goals for progress whilst encouraging my pupils to have fun as that is what music is all about!

The following topics are an example of what can be covered in you lesson:

- Songs you would like to learn
- Technique (finger style, pick playing, positioning)
- Playing different styles of music
- Soloing
- Ear training
- Scales
- Sight reading
- Theory
- Grades or exam tuition

Instrument Tuition:

Very flexible approach, I will teach based on individual needs. Beginners will learn the basics of the guitar, basic chords, basic scales etc. And advanced players will learn more complex chords, intricate scales, harmonies and improvisation.

If you just want to learn how to play your favourite songs, then I will teach you how to do that. If you want to learn about song writing, I will teach you that. Anything and everything.

Logic Pro X:

Equally as flexible and I will adhere to individual needs, I may need to start from the very basics even for proficient users. I have many years of experience and I graduated from Manchester MIDI School as a specialist in Logic Pro X. I will explain, demonstrate and test students about each subject per lesson.

We will look at MIDI, editing, recording, compression, EQ, Mastering, mixing, time stretching, FX, plugins, remixing, audio design, sound manipulation and so on.

Beat the Coronovirus Blues by actually playing the Blues :)

With the Virus threat and self-isolating now is the perfect time to learn guitar. I will help you at whatever stage you're at, if you are just starting out to Intermediate-advanced players with fun and friendly lessons.

With over 20 years of teaching experience and my unique approach to learning, you will not only make the quickest progress possible but have a lot of fun on the way.

• Are you an absolute beginner no idea where to start?
• Are you finding that the books and DVDs don’t seem to help you progress?
• Want to play that song you’ve had in your head?
• Always wanted to play that Jimi Solo?
• Got a guitar gathering dust but never got around to playing?
• Stuck in a rut - Can’t stop playing the same old riffs?
• Want to be able to play over the entire fretboard?
• Want to know what scales fit with what chords and vice versa?
• Music Theory - the hows and whys.

With your first steps into guitar playing, it is very important that you develop good technique - from holding the guitar in the correct position to exercises to help improve your strength and timing. With good technique, everything becomes easier, and once learned you’ll never forget it!

You’ll find that one-to-one lessons tailored to your pace of learning and the style you want to play will get quicker results than books and instruction video alone.

With my style of teaching, I focus on getting you playing the things you really want as quickly as possible. So whether you just want to strum a few singalongs or write your own, play some blues or get the funk out one to one lessons is the best way to achieve your goals and keep motivated.

It is a steep learning curve at the beginning but I have tried and tested methods to get you playing without difficulty Learn how to strum and change chords quickly and easily. Learn to play songs you really want to learn. I can transcribe any song and show you how to play it.

I have maintained a professional teaching schedule with over 1000 students taught in one-to-one private lessons. With over 20 years of teaching experience and my unique approach to learning will not only make the quickest progress possible but have a lot of fun on the way.

I have two locations: Angel, Islington (Upper Street N1 2BH)

Ben

Guitarist, singer, songwriter, composer with 20 years of experience.

I started to study guitar in 2002. After 6 months I started playing live music.
I began to teach guitar in 2018, in London.

I am specialized in beginners and children.
You can choose online lessons (Skype, Zoom, FaceTime), or lessons at your home, in London. I can teach in Italian and in English.

In the lessons the main lines of study are:
- technique exercises to make your hands stronger;
- songs suggested by me and songs that you like;
- music theory.

I try to communicate my passion for music, especially to the children, without forgetting to have fun.

Either, if you want to become a really good guitarist or if you just want to play guitar for fun and relaxation, don’t hesitate to contact me.
I thrive on seeing my students grow and develop as they discover what they can achieve.

A flexible, fun and interactive approach to learning to play guitar and understand the theory behind to not only know how to play, but to enjoy making music using your own taste and ideas.
Classes are adapted to the student making every session a personalized learning experience.

Songwriting is a fantastic skill whether you are a beginner or want to improve your songwriting capabilities. Not only will your musical abilities improve but so will you english language capabilities as we look to marry music and lyrics in the best possible way. Not only is it a great industry to get into, songwriting has enormous benefits to mental health as it provides a platform for creative expression which in my many years of experience has helped so many of my younger as well as older students. In my class, you will learn the foundations behind creating a great song including: Songwriting forms and structure in all genres, music theory and understanding chord progressions and modes, breaking music theory conventions in order to create a unique sound, great songwriting tools to help with 'writers block', performance coaching and how to convey your songs message on stage as well as all things music industry, including the importance of copyright and how to protect your songs. My students will be working with me on constructing songs as beginners and my more experienced songwriting students will work with professional music industry briefs that I will provide. Students will be able to write songs comfortably and autonomously after only a handful of lessons with me.
