The guitar is undoubtedly one of the most popular instruments of the modern age. It is so versatile and used in many genres ranging from classical music to Death Metal and even Electronic Music.

I will teach you the basics of playing the guitar, and I'll spice it up later with my experience in composition and songwriting. We will learn by example through the famous songs that shaped our understanding of the guitar. Whether you prefer singer-songwriter-style songs, or thrash metal we'll get there together.

I will teach mainly using the guitar tablature format, we can do sheet music which is generally unneeded for anything besides classical, but I will need to refresh my music sheet reading skills as I haven't had to read any in the last 10 years.

I offer personalized music lessons tailored to each student’s level, goals, and musical taste. Whether you are a complete beginner or an advanced musician, my teaching approach focuses on building strong fundamentals while encouraging creativity and musical expression.

Subjects Offered:

Music Theory: Learn how music works—notation, rhythm, harmony, scales, chords, and ear training—explained in a clear and practical way.

Piano: From basic technique and sight-reading to classical repertoire, accompaniment, and improvisation.

Classical Guitar: Proper technique, reading sheet music, classical pieces, and musical interpretation.

Electric Guitar: Chords, scales, riffs, solos, timing, tone, and playing across styles such as rock, blues, and pop.

Oriental Oud: Maqamat, rhythmic cycles, traditional techniques, and repertoire, with a deep understanding of Arabic music.

Music Production: Learn how to arrange, record, and produce music from idea to final track.

FL Studio: Step-by-step guidance on using FL Studio for composing, recording, MIDI programming, mixing, and basic mastering.

Music Composition: Develop your own musical ideas, melodies, harmony, orchestration, and structure for songs, bands, or film/game music.

Lessons are structured, engaging, and practical, with clear goals for each session. I focus on musical understanding, technique, and confidence, helping students enjoy the learning process and grow as independent musicians.

My method: Practice before theory. With 6 years of experience and productions accumulating millions of streams, I offer a teaching method based on the reality of the current music market.

My goal isn't to make you read a manual, but to make you self-sufficient with FL Studio as quickly as possible. I teach the practical techniques I use daily to create tracks that sound "professional".

Typical course structure: Each session is tailored to your needs, but generally follows this structure:

Listening and analysis: We listen to your projects or reference pieces.

Targeted technique: Focus on a specific aspect (Composition, Sound Design, Vocal Mixing, Mastering...).

Practical application: We immediately apply the technique to an FL Studio project.

Debriefing: I give you exercises and tips to help you progress before the next lesson.

Who are these courses for?

For complete beginners who want to get to grips with FL Studio.

To intermediate beatmakers who feel their productions lack "punch" or clarity.

For artists who want to learn how to record and mix their own voices.

I help you develop your own sonic identity.

I offer structured, technique-driven online lessons for students who want more than just chord charts. Trained in both the classical and flamenco traditions.
My approach is methodical, but never rigid—I tailor each lesson plan to your goals, whether you are preparing for graded exams or simply want to understand the why behind the music.

What I Cover in Lessons:

1.⁠ ⁠Classical Guitar Fundamentals

· Posture & Hand Position: Achieving maximum efficiency with minimal tension. We look at sitting position, left-hand alignment, and right-hand resting stroke vs. free stroke.
· Tone Production: Nail shaping, attack angles, and how to draw a singing tone from the instrument.
· Sight-Reading & Theory: Learning to read standard notation confidently, not just tablature. We cover positions, key signatures, and how to interpret phrasing marks.
· Repertoire Building: From Sor, Carcassi, and Aguado to Granados, Albéniz, and Villa-Lobos. I help you build a polished, performance-ready repertoire.

2.⁠ ⁠Flamenco Technique & Style

· The Four Essential Strokes: Rasgueado (strumming variations), Picado (scale runs), Arpeggio, and Alzapúa (thumb technique).
· Compás (Rhythm): Understanding the rhythmic cycles of Soleá, Bulerías, Tangos, Fandangos and many more. You will learn to feel the beat, not just count it.
· Falsetas: Short, pre-composed solo phrases. We break them down phrase by phrase, then learn to link them together.
· Accompaniment: Introduction to accompanying flamenco cante (singing) and baile (dance) – chord progressions, capo placement, and staying locked in with the singer.

3.⁠ ⁠Music Theory Applied to the Fretboard

· Harmonic analysis of the music you are playing.
· The difference between major/minor and the Andalusian cadence (Phrygian mode).

4. Creative Exploration

· Once the fundamentals are solid, we explore arrangement. Learn to take a melody (folk song, film theme, or standard) and arrange it for solo guitar in flamenco style.

Who This Is For:

· Students preparing for formal music exams.
· Self-taught guitarists looking to fix technique gaps and learn to read music.
· Flamenco enthusiasts who want to move beyond "strumming" into authentic compás and falsetas.
· Classical players curious about adding flamenco colours to their playing.
