Hi,

My name is Can. I've been teaching guitar for 28 years at all levels. If you want to learn to play the most useful and popular instruments in the music world you can join my lessons.

You can play almost all kinds of genres with the guitar. It is the only string instrument which is really polyphonic. The guitar is like an orchestra. Every instrument of the orchestra is inside the guitar but in a smaller sound size. It has many different colors, many different timbres.

Besides teaching this awesome instrument I will also teach you using the programs that help to improvise, recording, and making music. I will give you books, etudes to develop your speed and precision in a short time. After being advanced we will study different genres like rock, blues, jazz, improvisation and solo transcriptions.

All levels are accepted.

Always wanted to express yourself through music? Have a passion to learn your favorite tunes or maybe even try to compose yourself? Already have skills to do both, but need more inspiration, theoretical, historical backround, or advice on your current works? I would love to help with all these wishes. I am a student at Rhytmic Music Conservatory Copenhagen, play piano and compose mostly. Also teach how to use Ableton or Sibelius programs. I’m waiting to share my knowledge with you!

During the lessons, you will be able to follow your pace and keep/develop your individuality.

_____________

Join me for an artistic voice development practice! ( open to all genres )

In a dynamic and immersive learning experience emphasizing practical, hands-on learning, we will focus on uniqueness as artists and the dramaturgical elements of performance/creation.

We will work on your ideas and material while I will introduce project-based challenges, followed by reflection and discussion sessions on artistic references and identity with the intention of deepening the understanding of artistic choices, and feed the practical sessions.

We can discuss concept, theory, production, composition and songwriting.

At the core of my approach is the art of crafting an inclusive space—one that not only nurtures self-expression but also celebrates individuality. I'm a firm believer in honoring the pace and progress of each student, creating a dynamic environment that sparks motivation and ensures development. For me, the teacher-student connection facilitates the unlocking of the authentic potential of one's voice.

GuitarMap is a book I've penned, with plenty of shortcuts to understand harmony and how it works in guitar, piano, ukulele, bass, etc. Lessons are based on the book, which makes it easy to keep track of progress.

I teach music through a practical, student-led approach focused on real-world skills, confidence, and creative independence.

My goal is not just to show what to do, but to explain why it works, so students can apply the knowledge across styles, tools, and situations.

Teaching techniques and methods:

I tailor lessons to each student rather than following a rigid syllabus. Teaching is hands on and example driven, using demonstrations, guided exercises, and problem solving. I focus on breaking complex ideas into simple, usable steps, and I prioritise understanding over memorisation. For production and DJ students, this means working directly in their software or setup; for instrumentalists, it means technique applied immediately to music they care about.

A typical lesson plan:

Each lesson usually begins with a short check-in: what have you been working on? What’s got you stuck? And what do you want to do next? We then focus on one or two clear objectives—such as improving a technique, understanding a concept, or developing a track or performance idea. Lessons end with a practical takeaway: a focused exercise, creative task, or workflow to work on between sessions. Including your own SAMPLY portal to share home work and ideas and track messages.

Special characteristics as a teacher

I bring professional, real-world experience into every lesson. I’m direct, patient, and honest about what works and what doesn’t. I’m especially good at helping students who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or self-critical regain clarity and momentum. I adapt quickly to different learning styles and keep lessons grounded and encouraging.

Who I teach

I teach teenagers and adults at beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels. This includes hobbyists, aspiring professionals, and working musicians who want to level up specific skills. I regularly work with students who are self-taught, returning to music after a break, neurodivergent, or lacking confidence. Lessons are adapted to individual goals, pace, and circumstances.

Accordion is a versatile instrument, used across both folk and classical traditions. In this course, I offer personalised accordion lessons tailored to your level, goals, and musical interests.

I specialise in both button accordion and piano accordion, and I work with students who are complete beginners through to more advanced players looking to refine technique, musicality, and repertoire.

My teaching approach is supportive and flexible. I combine practical playing with a strong focus on listening skills, musical understanding, and expression.

Lessons can include:

Basic technique and posture
Learning tunes and repertoire
Reading music and/or playing by ear
Rhythm, timing, and musical expression
Music theory and understanding what you play
Building confidence and performance skills

Each lesson is adapted to your personal goals, whether you'd like to explore pop songs, folk songs, or classical. My aim is to make learning the accordion enjoyable, structured, and inspiring, while helping you make steady progress at your own pace.
