Creating an open, friendly and safe learning space is guaranteed. :)Education
I haven't learned music from a school or a program. I consider music as a language with few set of rules. I will be teaching some theories and techniques to facilitate the musician inside you.Experience / Qualifications
I have over ten years playing guitar, mostly with my band back in Sri Lanka. I have been teaching guitar over five years.I'm a self-taught guitarist and later learned theories and techniques over the years. I'll be sharing my best methods to enhance your self learning with the guitar as well as basic knowledge of recording by your own at home.

Let’s learn basics of guitar.Guitar Basics
The guitar is a versatile and popular stringed musical instrument, widely used across genres like rock, pop, blues, classical, and more. Understanding the basics is essential for beginners to start playing and progress effectively. Here’s a concise overview:
1. Parts of the Guitar
• Body: The main part, which amplifies sound in acoustic guitars or houses electronics in electric ones.
• Neck: The long, thin section where the fretboard is located, used for pressing strings to form notes.
• Fretboard: A flat surface with metal frets, dividing the neck into segments for different pitches.
• Headstock: At the end of the neck, it holds the tuning pegs to adjust string tension.
• Strings: Typically six, labeled (from thickest to thinnest) E (low), A, D, G, B, and E (high).
• Bridge: Anchors the strings to the body, transferring vibrations to produce sound.
2. Types of Guitars
• Acoustic: Produces sound naturally via the hollow body; ideal for folk, country, and classical.
• Electric: Relies on an amplifier and pickups to produce sound; common in rock, jazz, and metal.
• Classical: Features nylon strings, suited for classical and fingerstyle playing.
• Bass: A four-string variant for lower pitches, used to anchor rhythm and harmony.
3. Tuning
Standard tuning for a six-string guitar is E-A-D-G-B-E. Use a tuner (electronic or app-based) to adjust each string’s pitch by turning the tuning pegs. A properly tuned guitar ensures notes and chords sound correct.
4. Basic Techniques
• Holding the Guitar: Sit with the guitar resting on your dominant leg (right leg for right-handed players), keeping the neck slightly tilted upward. For electric, a strap allows standing.
• Fretting: Press strings down on the fretboard with your fingertips (left hand for right-handed players) to change notes. Use light but firm pressure just behind the fret.
• Strumming/Picking: Use a pick or fingersਸ
System: your fingers to strum or pluck the strings with your right hand. Start with simple patterns.
5. Chords and Notes
• Chords: Combinations of notes played together. Beginners often start with open chords like C, G, D, A, and E, using multiple fingers to press strings.
• Notes: Single pitches, found by pressing a string on a specific fret. Practice simple scales like the major or minor pentatonic.

(Online) Mathematics Tutoring for High School StudentsHigh School Math can be confusing for students. Often there is not enough time in school to repeat the content and practice enough, for the students to gain confidence and a routine in solving mathematical problems. With my help and guidance, any confusion will be cleared and we will practice problem solving until you are confident and understand the material.
The lessons will be tailored to your needs and their structure depends highly on you: usually it is a mixture of repeating the content, solving exercises together, summarising important concepts and talking about exercises you tried yourself at home. The topics, content, pace and methods of learning will be adjusted to your needs, ensuring that you get the most out of my lessons. Besides the lessons, you will get "homework" to work on to strengthen your skills and independent working.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
-Linear Algebra
-Calculus
-Trigonometry
-Geometry
-Set Theory
-Analysis
If you have another topic in mind that you really need help with, just send me a message!
Whether you need someone that explains the concepts to you or just someone to practice exercises with - I am sure I can help you. You have an exam soon and want to review the main topics? No problem! You have a very specific problem, question or topic that you need help with? I'm here to answer any questions! You need help with preparing for your A-levels/High School diploma? Don't fret, I will guide and prepare you!
The most important part of my lessons is, however, to ensure a safe and comfortable environment - I have no issue with explaining the same concept over and over again until I am convinced that you have understood it. It is important to me that you feel comfortable in asking any questions - I want to show you, that Math is more than a subject and that it can be fun!

I am Senegalese, Professor, Linguist and Specialist in the Wolof language. Learn and speak Wolof easily with me.My methodology is to base myself on the courses in a structural and clear way, accessible to my learners to give them quality teaching and a total understanding of the courses in a cordial and satisfying atmosphere.
My method is very simple, I start by teaching you the most common and most used words and expressions. Then slowly the formation of sentences, conjugation, grammar but also how to pronounce each word well and know their positions in the sentence.
Thanks to my very simple and effective teaching methodology, the student can form sentences in Wolof very easily from our first lesson.
Wolof is the most spoken language in Senegal, Gambia where it has been enriched with contributions from other dialects, Arabic and French, which remains the official language. It is experiencing cultural expansion in the country and is also present in Gambia and Mauritania.
So to facilitate your integration into Senegalese society; it is essential to use this language because it is the vernacular language although there are several beautiful local Senegalese languages but Wolof remains the most used language. This is why I offer myself to teach the beauty of this language which is my specialty and my mother tongue, I also teach Senegalese and Gambian culture and civilization.
Learning Wolof offers anyone who wishes to know Senegal, in a professional, cultural or tourist context, the opportunity to establish privileged contact with its population.
I would also like to inform my learners that apart from online courses, I organize language visits and tours in Senegal; for those who wish to travel to practice and discover Senegal with special packages.
DON'T HESITATE TO BOOK A COURSE DIRECTLY SO THAT I CAN EXPLAIN AND INTRODUCE YOU TO THE WOLOF LANGUAGE.
