Guitar tutoring in Berlin for all ages and abilities.

A partir de 51.62 $ /h

I am an experienced and enthusiastic guitar tutor from Leeds, England, living in Berlin. I have a bachelor’s degree in jazz guitar from Leeds College of Music although I also play and teach rock, pop, funk, folk, and indie music.

In lessons, I aim to get students to play something they know as soon as possible in order to get excited about progress early on. We balance this with paying attention to proper technique and having one eye on the theory behind what we are playing to broaden your understanding of how music works.

I am actively engaged in playing within the music scene and have a real excitement for all types of music, whether it’s learning your first chords on guitar or working on improvisation or music theory. We'll go at the right pace for you and achieve your goals together.

I have experience teaching all ages and abilities of students, having taught in primary and secondary schools as well as private tuition for adults. From complete beginners to preparing a student for their college auditions.

Lessons are tailored to suit the needs of the student, in order to have lessons that push you to learn to the best of your ability whilst still being fun and musical.

Acerca de mí

I am an experienced and enthusiastic guitar tutor from Leeds, England, living in Berlin. I specialise in playing jazz although I also play and teach rock, pop, funk, folk and indie music. I have a real love for improvisation and enjoy teaching students how to begin to improvise and find their own musical voice.

I have recently moved to Berlin in order to pursue my career playing and teaching music. Whilst living in Leeds I studied jazz guitar and regularly played gigs all over the UK with different acts from diverse musical backgrounds.

I have experience teaching all ages and abilities of students, having taught in primary and secondary schools as well as private tuition. From complete beginners to preparing a student for their college auditions, whether it’s learning your first chords or working on improvisation or music theory, we can work together with the methods that suit you to get you there!

It is important to me to strike a balance of making music and learning how to apply music theory in an interesting way. I have a good understanding of jazz theory so if you are thinking of branching out and expanding your knowledge of music theory I can help out there!

Lessons are tailored to suit the needs of the student, in order to have lessons which push you to learn to the best of your ability whilst still being fun and musical.

Testimonial:

"George is a great guitar teacher. He inspired and motivated students to fulfil their potential at our large 11-18 school planning engaging solo and group lessons and leading Junior and Senior Rock Bands to perform at events such as Bradford School's Prom. He had excellent recruitment and retention rates and his students loved their lessons. I am happy to recommend him as a Guitar teacher."

Formación

I have a Bachelor's degree in Jazz Guitar from Leeds College of Music, including a semester studying Pedagogy - the theory and practice of teaching. During my degree I focused mainly on jazz but also branched out to more experimental projects and briefly studied Indian Classical music.

Having just moved to Germany unfortunately my German is not particularly good so unfortunately I can only offer lessons in English at the moment. It is something I am working on so hopefully soon I can offer lessons also in German.

Over the years alongside teaching I have been an active professional musician playing around 100 concerts or gigs per year around the UK and occasionally in Europe. These gigs range from small jazz shows in bars to large stages at festivals such as Boomtown Fair, London International Ska Festival or Manchester Jazz Festival. I can offer plenty of advice and tips to students wanting to play music live or wondering how to start or how to have fun getting on a stage in front of people for the first time.

I also love to compose music and really love exploring the fascinating world of composition with students. I write for a large range of styles and my compositions have received airplay on UK radio stations such as BBC radio 3, BBC radio 6 Music and BBC radio 1Xtra.

Hi, I’m Andrea!
I’m a professional classical guitar performer and educator from Sydney, Australia. I have been developing my music teaching business for over 9 years, through which I teach a wide range of styles, levels, and ages. Lessons are specifically tailored to meet the needs of each student, whether the focus is on classical guitar performance, chords, pop/rock, or Spanish-style fingerpicking. Music theory, composition, songwriting, improvisation, sight-reading, and preparation for high school exams or University auditions are all options that can be incorporated into lessons.

I have plenty of experience with young children and teenagers as well as adults, from complete beginners to advanced players. My teaching philosophy is holistic in that I strive to help my students become well-rounded musicians with a range of listening, reading, improvisation, and analytical skills, while of course carefully choosing repertoire that will cater to the student’s taste as well as their abilities. Pop/rock guitar and jazz/blues improvisation are also options as well as classical training.

In my 45-year career as a musician (guitarist, singer, and composer) I have always seen how music enriches our lives. In this sense, I am motivated to positively influence people around me through music and to get them to actively participate. Of course, I am interested in introducing children and young people to music. It is very exciting for me to witness how you have your first contact with tones and instruments.

With me, you get a seasoned musician with a sense of mission and empathy for the "future" musicians

The hours are designed according to your musical interests. Since each person has his or her own individual approach to music, it is logical and, in my experience, more effective to work with this in a specific way. So, instead of a rigid curriculum in which you lose interest in a short time, I would like to support you in achieving your personal plans and discovering musical possibilities!

Depending on your interests, motivation, previous knowledge and musical taste, the following focal points are coordinated:
Technique (tone formation, breathing, approach, intonation, finger technique, etc.), ear training, sense of rhythm, improvisation, note reading, music theory.

The focus is all about enjoying the music. Its naver late to learn.

An experienced guitar teacher with a Professional and Higher Degree in Modern Guitar from the CSMC gives private lessons in general music and/or guitar from Beginner level to medium/high level, classes focused on the interests and objectives of the student.

Your favorite styles: Jazz, Rock, Heavy, Pop, Funk, etc.

Chords: All types, inversions, and drops applied to different styles.
Most used phrases and techniques, both melodically and rhythmically.
Arpeggios, the chords broken down in a practical way.
Scales and modes, to lose the fear of improvising.
Theory and material to suit the student and his objectives.

The classes are focused on the final aspirations of the student, both those who learn as a hobby, to play their favorite songs or those who consider a more serious and complete learning. The theory-practice balance will vary depending on this approach, from focusing the sessions on practical and concrete learning to the in-depth understanding of the exercises and their theoretical why.

Don't think about it, go ahead and embark on this incredible and fun path!

Like with languages, intuition plays a huge part in learning an instrument. Most often in music, the correct choice will the the one that ~feels~ the most natural. This is what my teachers, from when I was a kid, all the way to the end of my studies at the conservatory, have prioritized in lessons; Working less hard to sound better.

I’m here to help you in the same way, to decipher with you certain sounds, certain gestures in recorder playing, so that we can map out together your skill set, and eventually find your own style of play.

When it comes to the grammar part of music, I’m ready to teach you everything about reading notes, intervals, chords, and all the principles of music theory, with examples and fun exercises.

I am a very patient person, and have experience with beginners as well as “matured” amateurs :)

I hold a masters in early music, along with a bachelors in classical composition.

My dream is to live from composition mainly, writing music for concerts, film and ballet. Currently I’m working on a ballet commission from the Schauspielhaus in Zurich, and more original music for a series of concerts next summer in France.

My favorite composers are Bartok... and a bunch of anonymous medieval ones.

How about you?
