About Me
I started playing music at the age of 12. A graduate of the High School of Jazz in Xalapa, Mexico, I've been teaching guitar privately for 6 years now.

I'm used to very different profiles and can adapt to the student's wishes (jazz guitar, classical, rock, metal, blues, funk...).
My lessons include a theoretical part, depending on whether you're a beginner or not, a technical part and, most importantly, practice!

In my opinion, music should remain a pleasure and a sharing above all.

As I have access to the Luzern University of Music, I have rooms available for lessons. I can also come to your home and give video lessons.
I remain at your disposal,

Iván G.

I am a guitarist and offer classical guitar lessons for beginner to medium for children of all ages!
The goal would be to discover the world of the guitar by first learning the basics, then applying them to learning an easy piece to start!
This learning should lead to a certain autonomy of deciphering and will allow the participant to evolve in the discipline of these own wings!

Program

Discover, learn or improve in acoustic or electric guitar, through styles of music of your choice.

Objectives and skills

Guitar lessons focus on the study of various playing techniques, the study of chords, harmony, as well as rhythm. This study is done through pieces of music of various styles, chosen according to the tastes of the student (s), to match their desires and desires. We will also learn the maintenance and structure of his instrument, as well as reading scores in tablature or music notation.

Regarding this last point, it is important to specify that with Apolline, music theory is integrated into the instrument lesson, sparingly and in a manner consistent with the subject studied by the child. Thus, theory sticks to practice and becomes digestible and interesting. To learn more about this, see our article on music theory lessons.

Learning music with Apolline
How to leave the usually rigid framework of the first years of musical learning that is found in most schools in Switzerland?

Based in Lausanne, Apolline has a different philosophy. Rather than offering children and adolescents to learn in individual lessons, lessons in small groups - from 2 to 3 students, depending on the instrument - are highlighted. Working in a group offers many advantages to beginners or inexperienced students.

Apolline offers her students the possibility of joining a group workshop, in addition to the basic instrument course, so that they can play with other musicians of their age. Accompanied by a teacher, they will learn to play in groups, through covers or their own compositions.

As a Master’s student in medical biology, I have been playing piano and guitar for 18 years. I can explain to you the musical theory that allows you to understand a piece on which you want to improvise or to understand the idea behind the composition of a piece. I can find you the chords of any song or piece and I have examples of songs whose chords search is particularly interesting. I can teach you classical music and jazz.
I use a piano that provides an automated and complete accompaniment, that is to say that we can play as with a band with a drummer and musicians of any style. This is very convenient.
I also have recordings of impro funk or hip-hop patterns that are what you might call "fire" to learn to improvise with pleasure.
I took classes at the school of jazz and current music for about ten years and had some bands, concerts and jams at the university. I was also a member of the Lausanne University Choir.
For many years, I made self-taught classical music in parallel with jazz lessons.
