Acerca de mí
I have been teaching privately and in music schools for over 10 years, a variety of styles and techniques from beginners to advanced. Wether you are just starting or can already play, I can help you develop a solid practice routine that will target specific areas of playing, but, most importantly, I want you to develop your own voice on the instrument just as I'm always constantly doing.

I consider myself a patient, knowledgeable and dedicated teacher, you an read some of my testimonials below


"Andy is an excellent guitar teacher for students of all ages. He taught my teenage son for two years and made the lessons fun and accessible. My son plays very well now, but more important, he has a deeper understanding of music in general and how learning an instrument can really enhance one’s life. That is thanks to Andy’s enthusiasm and good manner. I highly recommend him." Jean

"Andy is a great guitar teacher who has really brought my playing on. He is a talented musician, but just as importantly a patient teacher who has helped both me and my 10 year old son grasp the basics of guitar playing. He’s also a really cool guy. I’d recommend him to anyone." Pete

"Andy is an amazing guitar player and teacher, extremely patient with children, methodical and effective in his teaching. He has good knowledge of the RSL Rock school curriculum and examination requirements.
Our son has progressed very fast to grade 3, taking the grade 4 exam soon.
I have the greatest confidence in Andy and would recommend him unreservedly for teaching children and adults alike." Kostas

"I have been taking guitar for a couple years and I can with out a doubt say that Andy is the best guitar teacher I have ever had. He Is chill and understanding. Would recommend him to anyone who wants to start learning guitar." Alex

As a pianist, musicologist and composer, I am passionate about music and I tend to cover the maximum amount of subjects inside music in my lessons. I don’t only teach how to play piano, but I explain, in the most suitable way for my students, how music works, the theory of music, how to create music and your own songs, where do concepts come from, the relationship between intervals and harmonies, etc.
I love asking my students which are their favourite activities and their favourite pieces of music so we can learn them together or arrange them together. I’m always open to teach other instruments to my students or to sing. My music lessons are about having fun while learning.

This course covers the basics of the instrument and utilisation of music theory fundamentals. Learners will study the basics of playing guitar at a beginning level through studying music scales, chord symbols, and common guitar practice. A concise history of the electric guitar along with a study of its corresponding musical techniques will also be included in this course.

The main objective of this course is to produce an intensified appreciation for music by playing the guitar. Students will learn how to read music notation, chord symbols, and tablature. Students will also gain a better understanding of many different musical genres including pop, punk, blues, jazz, rock, and other popular music styles.

Nothing is more important for making music that understanding how music works.
From the basics of tempo to sheet music analisys, we will open up the nature of music composition and it's effect on people, as well as learning basic guitar or piano if that is your wish.
I believe it is important to learn music from someone that has true passion for it, someone that would pass it's personal knowledge onto it's student.

Hi music lovers,

My name is Juan Ignacio. I'm a multi-instrumentalist, guitar technician (I repair/build solid body and chambered guitars), music tutor and producer/mixer.

I have 23 years of experience as a guitarist and 18 of them have been as a guitar tutor (beginner, intermediate and advance).

I can teach you at my private studio or at yours. Each lesson will be unique, fun and creative. I will provide you tools which can be applied to songs you love, while we'll be also working on developing important skills such as improvisation, understanding music theory, chords, scales and much more.

What would I ask from you? Passion and commitment.

Send me a message if you dare to enjoy learning guitar!

All the best,

Juan


TUTORING EXPERIENCE:

I've worked as a music tutor providing private lessons and also for different music agencies in London (UK) including: London Music Centre, London School of Music and Musiko Musika. I've delivered guitar lessons at Spotify (Charing Cross Office), different primary schools and kindergartens. In 2018, I taught Brit Award-Winners Bastille how to play the traditional Argentinian rhythms


BIOGRAPHY:

Juan was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina. At the age of nine he started teaching himself how to play guitar, bass, keyboards and drums; before joining local bands and performing around the country.

After studying sound engineering at the Universidad Nacional de Lanús, he worked as a live sound engineer and separately on a number of music productions in his home studio. He also trained as a luthier/guitar technician, building and repairing stringed instruments alongside his father, using his surname as a brand.

In 2014 Juan moved to London to develop his skills and connections. His passion and commitment to music led him to working at guitar repair workshops around the capital city, including Camden Town and the well-known Denmark Street. He repaired guitars for artists like the legendary Jarvis Cocker (Pulp), Mercury Prize-winner Michael Kiwanuka, Grammy-winners Mumford & Sons, and King Krule. He later taught Brit Award-winners Bastille how to play the traditional rhythms of his home country.

In 2017, Juan started composing a wide range of music genres for all kinds of audio-visual media productions, including advertising campaigns for: Samsung, Coca-Cola, MasterCard, Nesquik, Avon and Breil

At the same time, he played with a host of different bands as a guitarist, and busked around town. Juan was hired to work as a guitar technician at Abbey Road on live recording sessions. During this period spent in the studio, mastering engineer Wharton spotted Juan’s potential and encouraged him to focus more of his attention on writing, releasing and performing his own material

Extra information:
I can provide an electric, acoustic or classical guitar.

I'm a guitar student at ICMP London at the moment. For almost four years I've been dedicating myself completely to the guitar and all his surroundings, such as improvisation, tons of music theory, composing, producing, recording... I can give classes to anyone and any age. I have 2 years of experience giving music classes. Thanks a lot for reading!

Two keywords form the base of the singing technique I teach: relaxation and engagement. Inspired by the Alexander technique, we need the body to be completely free from any muscle tension before and after producing a sound. Then, to create a sound of quality, the body also needs to be engaged and free. By releasing all the unnecessary tension, you will be able to sing all the arias of your dreams. I will give some weekly exercises in singing and music theory and we will correct them together during the lesson.
I was part of the choir of the French public radio broadcaster for 7 years. I have a diploma in Music theory from the CRR of Boulogne-Billancourt. I even have a degree in Pop music and I am currently finishing my Master's in musical theatre and composition.
My lessons are for all ages, all levels, and all voices. I specialised in the voice of Countertenor.

Being an electric guitarist requires a lot of technical skills, fine motor skills, knowledge of the instrument, but above all expressiveness. To be a great guitarist and perform on stage as Hendrix did, you will not only need a lot of practice, but also to be very clear about where you want to go and have the specific tools at hand to achieve this goal.

Hello, my name is Sebastián, I have been a guitarist for 20 years, I have a master's degree in education and 10 years of experience teaching music.

I have designed this course to cover various techniques (alternate picking, legato, tapping, vibrato, bending, arpeggio, sweep picking, chord inversion, etc.), theory (scales, chords, harmony), knowledge of the fretboard, improvisation, and expression.

Hello guitar lovers!

I have my own method (Jam Now! Guitar Method) for beginners and intermediate players who are looking for a well-structured plan that guarantees improvement, tracking the student's progress weekly. These are some of the things I can help you with:

-Prepare an audition to access a music degree
-Improve one or more aspects of the student's technique
-Improve knowledge of theory/harmony
-Learn improvisation
-Learn different styles or focus on a particular style
-Learn to play songs from your favorite artists
-Practice with different effects pedals
-How to create your own demos (drum programming, midi and vocals, and guitar recording using Pro Tools and Logic Pro X)
-Songwriting

Depending on your goal and your level I prepare a plan with small deadlines that can vary depending on the student's progress. Independently of the goal I always try to make sure the student have fun during the process, I'm a friendly person who loves music and teaching.

Feel free to contact me to discuss anything.

Hello! I’m Francesco but all my students call me Frankie.
I’ve been playing drums and guitar since I was 15 years old living in Venezuela. I continued my studies in an American college for a year, to then decide to get my bachelors degree in Italy; a school called MAEurope (or currently Music Academy), affiliated with Middlesex, ACM and LAMA. After getting my B.A. Degree I moved to London where I continued to teach with a couple of agencies and play as a session musician for a couple of acts.
I’ve been teaching since I was 22 years old in the same school I was getting my B.A. Degree: MAEurope. My first class ever were a group of 6-years old kids; lucky me ha? Well, they were great! The main challenge of having such a young age class was to keep them entertained and not loose focus. This situation gave me the tools to create my own way of teaching which is usually laid back, fun and not with a “school” approach towards the student. The kids don’t even realize they are learning until they actually get home and know how to play the instrument! Especially with young students. it is important to make the lessons fun and not tedious as this experience sets the way the student will look at the instrument for the rest of their lives: boring classes = boring instrument.
These tools are good for adults too. I won’t use childish games, of course; but the ability to keep the lesson fluent and entertaining is one of my priorities.
