The course that I propose is BILINGUAL FRENCH / ENGLISH, as well as 2 BOOKS.

Here the pleasure of playing music is put forward.

The kind of music you love most will be the focus of the course, their codes and secrets will be the focus of our study, that's what I want to share with you.

We can do technical lessons and simply learn together how to play one or more songs of your choice or mine, enrich your game with this approach and your repertoire!

(For example, We can re-arrange the pieces and make them more original by approaching the system (CAGED), and enriching their chords, resulting in new positions, new techniques and new sounds, using arpeggio techniques rather than strumming for 4-chord pieces, voicing and fingerstyle techniques, in short, expanding the instrument's playing fields and playing skills to keep progressing in your game and improve your rehearsals ...)

If you make a request, this program is obviously accompanied by the pleasure of learning more in theory and being able to directly apply new knowledge on its instrument and identify its common or rare use in the pieces discussed in class.

In this case, the theory is translated to be accessible to anyone, both for those who are connoisseurs and for those who discover everything from absolute zero.
The exercises, songs, and theoretical explanations offered throughout the program are organized in an order of progressive difficulty.

I wrote and produced 2 books of my method to learn the guitar and the music, that I sell to accompany my course and your apprenticeship in the best conditions and so that you can continue the course even at home and to review etc ... .
There is ONE BOOK OF COURSES containing all the theoretical and practical program of the year, as well as a BOOK OF EXERCISE on the ranges and the modes that you can obtain directly.

PLACES :
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

PROFESSIONAL GUITARIST, COMPOSER, MUSIC AND GUITAR TEACHER

Beginner-Advanced Level

Experience:
I am a professional musician and have been teaching students of all ages for over 20 years. My experience as a teacher and my pursuit of self-improvement as a musician have led me to develop an effective method that I have already tested with over a hundred students.
Throughout my career I had the satisfaction of studying with great masters of different specialties or styles, each one emphasizing different aspects of flamenco, classical or modern guitar and each one has given me their approach (technique, rhythms, accompaniment, harmony, etc.), which has led me after years of study and compilation to take the best from each one to develop my method.

My role in my classes is more that of a personal trainer than a teacher, where I will be very attentive to bringing out the best in my students, finding the right technique to help them develop a good rhythm, working on their rhythm, etc.
For me, the role of a teacher, in addition to teaching, is to be part of a team, to maintain morale and constantly improve oneself while always maintaining a love for music.

Methodology:
I tailor the lessons to the student's level, style, or goals. Generally, the first half of the lesson is dedicated to technique, focusing on proper placement, execution, and relaxation, which will result in a good sound. Over time, I've realized that it's also a way to connect with the guitar, concentrate, and warm up. So, little by little, we'll develop our routine, which will begin by working on basic rhythmic aspects.
The second half is dedicated to playing, trying to put into practice what we learned about the technique with the sticks or studying other concerns of the student, which may be a theme, harmony, falsetas, improvisation, or even other styles, etc., always obviously taking into account the search or interest of the student.

FLAMENCO
- Flamenco technique
- Palos (Tangos, Bulerías, Alegrías, Soleá, Taranta...)
- Accompaniment to singing and dancing
- Clapping and rhythms

MODERN GUITAR
- Harmony
- Improvisation
- Repertoire (rumbas, pop, jazz, rock, etc.)

CLASSIC
- Reading, solfège and interpretation.
- Works
- I work with progressive learning books

This course is for people who want to play their first songs quickly, without pressure and in a relaxed atmosphere (no music theory required). No experience necessary: we progress at your own pace, with the songs of your choice!

We're going to learn the basics so that you can then play all by yourself :)
- Basic chords to accompany songs.
- The essential rhythms for playing in time.
- How to sing and play at the same time.
- The correct techniques to feel comfortable with the instrument.

I am a student, and I would like to be able to share my experience in a calm, communication-based environment!

So if you are a singer who wants to accompany yourself, or if you simply want to discover the guitar, I'm here for that.

Emilio

accompaniment (strumming, picking, playing and singing)
group play and rhythmic setup
improvisation and the basics of jazz language
learning pieces you like

My goal is to give you concrete tools to quickly play music, develop your ear and your autonomy, while maintaining a lively, structured and motivating approach.

هل تحلم بتعلم الموسيقى بطريقة احترافية مبنية على الفهم العميق وليس فقط التقليد؟ هل ترغب في امتلاك مهارة العزف أو الغناء بثقة، والانتقال تدريجيًا من مستوى المبتدئ إلى مستوى متقدم حقيقي؟

أقدم دروسًا موسيقية شاملة ومتكاملة أونلاين، مبنية على منهج واضح ومدروس يبدأ معك من الصفر تمامًا، حتى لو لم تمسك آلة موسيقية من قبل، ويأخذك خطوة بخطوة نحو مستوى متقدم واحترافي، مع متابعة فردية دقيقة تضمن تطورك الحقيقي.

أنا معلمة موسيقى حاصلة على درجة الماجستير في الموسيقى، وعازفة بخبرة عملية في الأداء والتدريس، وأؤمن أن كل شخص يمكنه تعلم الموسيقى إذا تم توجيهه بالطريقة الصحيحة. هدفي ليس فقط تعليمك العزف أو الغناء، بل مساعدتك على فهم الموسيقى كلغة متكاملة والتعبير عن نفسك من خلالها بثقة واحتراف.

مجالات التدريس تشمل:
البيانو: تعلم أساسيات العزف، القراءة من النوتة، التكنيك الصحيح، والتدرج حتى أداء مقطوعات متقدمة.
العود: فهم المقامات، تقنيات الريشة، التحكم في التعبير، والعزف بأسلوب شرقي أصيل.
الغيتار: أساسيات العزف، الإيقاعات، الكوردات، وعزف الأغاني بطريقة صحيحة وسلسة.

الصولفيج: قراءة النوتة، التدريب السمعي، الإملاء الموسيقي، وتقوية الأذن الموسيقية بشكل ملحوظ.

يعتمد البرنامج التعليمي على مبدأ التدرج المنظم، حيث يتم تقسيم التعلم إلى مراحل واضحة:
المرحلة الأولى: بناء الأساس من الصفر، التعرف على الآلة أو الصوت، وفهم المبادئ الأساسية.
المرحلة الثانية: تطوير المهارات التقنية والبدء في التطبيق العملي من خلال تمارين وأعمال موسيقية.
المرحلة الثالثة: الوصول إلى مستوى متقدم يشمل التعبير الموسيقي، العزف بثقة، والقدرة على أداء مقطوعات أو أغاني بشكل متكامل.
المرحلة الرابعة: مرحلة الاحتراف النسبي، حيث يصبح الطالب قادرًا على الاعتماد على نفسه، وتحليل الموسيقى، والارتجال خاصة في الموسيقى الشرقية.

ما يميز هذه الدروس:
منهج واضح ينقلك من الصفر إلى الاحتراف بشكل تدريجي ومدروس.
شرح مبسط وعميق في نفس الوقت، يناسب جميع المستويات.
تركيز على التطبيق العملي وليس الحفظ فقط.
دمج بين العزف والغناء لتطوير الحس الموسيقي الكامل.
تطوير الأذن الموسيقية والقدرة على التمييز بين النغمات والمقامات.
بناء ثقة الطالب بنفسه وتشجيعه على الأداء والتعبير.

أسلوب التدريس يعتمد على التفاعل والتخصيص، حيث يتم تصميم كل حصة حسب مستوى الطالب وهدفه، سواء كان التعلم كهواية، أو تطوير مهارة معينة، أو الوصول إلى مستوى احترافي. يتم تقديم تمارين مخصصة، ومتابعة مستمرة، وتصحيح دقيق للأداء لضمان التقدم الفعلي.

الدروس مناسبة للأطفال، المراهقين، والكبار، ولا يشترط وجود أي خبرة سابقة. كما أنها مناسبة أيضًا لمن لديه أساس ويرغب في تطوير مستواه بشكل منهجي واحترافي.

تُقدّم الدروس أونلاين بجودة عالية، مع استخدام وسائل شرح واضحة وتواصل مباشر يضمن فهم الطالب وتقدمه في كل حصة. كما يتم إعطاء واجبات وتمارين بين الحصص لتعزيز التعلم وتسريع التطور.

إذا كنت تبحث عن تعلم حقيقي يبدأ معك من الصفر ويقودك بثقة نحو الاحتراف، مع دعم مستمر وتوجيه صحيح، فإن هذه الدروس هي الخيار المناسب لك.

ابدأ الآن رحلتك الموسيقية، وامنح نفسك الفرصة لاكتشاف قدراتك وتطويرها بشكل احترافي ومدروس.
