Ever wanted to play guitar like a rockstar? Maybe you have plans to join a band, just play for fun or maybe even become a youtube guitar star.

However you want to play, this course will take you on some very simple steps starting with the basics of guitar (if you're a complete beginner)and going on to explore several different rock genres until you decide which route you would like to take!

We'll go over several fun exercises and classic rock/pop songs so you can start to play over backing tracks very quickly and build your confidence in becoming a competent guitar player!
Informations supplémentaires
For online lessons, you'll preferably need a laptop and a printer so that I can send you some music to play. An electric guitar is more suited to rock playing but an acoustic guitar is also fine to start with.

Présentation
I have been teaching guitar in Edinburgh and East Lothian for over 16 years now. I have taught children as young as 5 to teenagers and adults of all ages. I've prepared school children for their exams, taught groups of people to play together in a band and inspired adults to take up a new hobby!

In 2012 I worked as a project musician for the renowned SAGE Gateshead and more recently for Lamp House Music School where over 15 of my pupils performed in their annual summer concert in Haddington.

I get a lot of joy and satisfaction from teaching music, especially guitar and it is great to see some of my pupils who have gone on to write their own music and play in bands themselves. I believe the best way to approach the lessons is to keep it fun and be able to adapt to every pupil in a different way allowing them to progress quicker!

'Ondrej is excellent at setting the right goal posts for your level: challenging, but not so challenging as to be discouraging. He has a discerning eye and ear and knows how to direct his advice to see immediate results.' - Lauren (student)

- Lessons catered to your needs and wants
- Individual attention
- Taught ages 5-60

One of the parts of teaching I most enjoy is the variety of my students’ backgrounds and finding an individual approach that works best for each student. I always do my best to create a supportive, stress-free environment so that the students can have a really fun time learning, while encouraging them to expand their capabilities at a pace that suits them best.

I specialise in advanced Classical and Jazz Piano, Composition and Arranging, as well as fundamentals of Theory of Music for students from ABRSM Grade 5 to Diploma level. I offer substantial discounts for families and for bundles of 5 or 10 lessons.

I have a well-equipped studio with a new grand piano as well as other keyboards and music tech gear, and teach both in-person for students living in Edinburgh, and online internationally. As many of my students are from Edinburgh university, where I also teach Orchestration and Screen Composition, daytime lessons can be flexible from week to week.

My classes are helpful to students seeking to pass the higher performance and theory grade examinations, as well as to university undergraduates seeking to fill knowledge gaps and to explore composition and orchestration in greater depth. Students I have taught invariably achieve excellent results, as high as 144/150 in recent ABRSM practical piano examinations, and as high as 100% in Theory of Music.

I also teach Music Technology, specialising in Cubase DAW as well as Sibelius and Dorico scorewriter applications.
