Guitar and Music theory lessons. Electric acoustic and classical guitar, improvisation, metal, jazz, pop, funk!

From 58.32 C$ /h

Hello! My name is Matei, I am 21 years old, I have been studying guitar for over a decade and I have 5 years of experience in the teaching domain. I am currently studying jazz at the Jam Music Lab conservatory in Vienna. I have studied classical guitar for 5 years, electric guitar for another 5 years, and jazz guitar for 3 years.

I can teach you music theory concepts ranging from fundamentals like chords, intervals, scales, and arpeggios to the more advanced: circle of fifths, modes, tensions, and triads. Regarding the technical aspect of guitar playing, I can create a good practice routine for the improvement of different styles of playing such as alternate picking, fingerpicking, legato, taping, hybrid picking, economy picking, etc.
Although these concepts may sound frightening at first, I can help you understand them more easily.

The lessons are thought to be suitable for beginners who never picked up a guitar before, intermediate players who know some songs and fundamentals but don't know what to do next, and advanced players who want to deepen their skills.

I can also help you build a good foundation for improvising over any tune you like, help you master composition, and teach you music-making and recording programs such as Reaper, to be able to start your solo projects.

I will provide my personal insights regarding what I think you should improve, but I can also just help you learn something specific like a song you want to play.

Extra information

I have a guitar amp and an audio interface so there is no need for you to bring your amp. I also have an electric guitar and an electro-acoustic jazz guitar. I would recommend you bring your own but if you are not able to, you can use one of mine so it's okay either way. :)

Hello there!

Do you wish to learn to play the piano but do not have several hours every day to dedicate to practicing? I can help! With 15 years of teaching experience, I’ve honed my methods to facilitate rapid progress and maximize efficiency. My students achieve in months, what usually takes years when following a conventional music school program. Nonetheless, I am not taking any shortcuts. On the contrary, one of the reasons why my students progress so fast is my insistence on building solid fundamentals. I strive for my students to master the necessary tools for them to then achieve their own personal ambitions.

Having observed the practice routines of professionals and university students worldwide, I've realized that there's often much time to be gained during practice. Realizing everyone's personnality, approach, affinities and tastes are different, I prioritize a personalized approach tailored to your individual learning style. Together, we'll make the most of our sessions, whether you're a beginner diving into music or an intermediate player seeking to enhance your skills. And guess what? You won't need to practice for hours on end to see significant improvement. With regular lessons, even just 15 minutes of practice three times a week can lead to enormous progress. As I often say, the learning process is more akin to a marathon than a sprint.

While efficiency is important, I believe that learning should be fun and inspiring. In my lessons, you can expect a supportive and encouraging environment. I'll be there with you every step of the way, celebrating your achievements and helping you overcome any challenges that arise. Together, we'll create a positive and empowering learning experience.

Ready to embark on your fast and efficient piano learning journey? Contact me to schedule lessons and get ready for a rewarding musical adventure! Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello and welcome to my music studio! It is absolutely fabulous that you are interested in music, and I hope you have lots and lots of fun with it! However, diving into the wonders of the piano/keyboard can be a bit overwhelming... and that is where I come in!
This course is for anyone from complete beginners to advanced students, from lessons that focus completely on classical music to lessons that include or focus on the basics of jazz/pop. If you like to sing, we can also work on the basics of jazz/pop vocal, so you can learn to accompany yourself at the piano.
In our lessons, technique will be an inherent part of the training, as well as analysis, basic music theory, and efficient ways of practicing music. If that all sounds good to you, then please reach out to me and we can start ASAP!
Lessons can be in English or Dutch.

So who am I?
In a nutshell, I am a professional pianist, vocalist, lyricist and blogger. Since 2014, I have taught in various music schools, teaching piano, ensemble, jazz vocal, and solfege.
On a more elaborate note, I obtained my Master of Arts in classical piano, summa cum laude, at the Royal Conservatory of Ghent (KASK) in 2017, and studied as a Fulbrighter at Indiana University Jacobs School of Music in Bloomington USA during the 2019-2020 academic year.
Every day, I strive to become a better musician and person, and I aim to transfer that passion to my students.

Composition is hard to define and is by no means limited to one particular style or genre. Our meetings would provide a framework and the context for you to delve deeper into your chosen ideas and creations.

As well as composition, I am able to assist you with music theory, ear training, piano and general musicianship. I plan my lessons individually and orientate myself towards your goals. Whether you want to create a Bach fugue or a new single for your EDM album, I would be there to support your stylistic decisions.

Whether you want to become a pro, take your first steps in guitar playing or are looking for an excellent teacher for your child, the difference is only in the pedagogical approach, because the most important thing is a solid foundation.

And that's exactly why you should consider me as your guitar teacher.
I have been playing guitar for 15 years and due to my rich education I have reached international concert stages.
I've been passing on the know-how I've learned from some of the world's leading guitarists to my own students for years, regardless of age, ambition and musical style.

And that's how it works:
- we ensure that basic technical skills and basic musical knowledge are strengthened to avoid unnecessary frustration in the future
- we create a consistent exercise plan, compatible with the student's daily activities, always with the idea of achieving the student's goal in the shortest possible time

My own goal is to reach a level where a student is able to become his own teacher. They set their own goals, organize their development and learn how to achieve them.

Do you want to learn how to play various styles while having fun? Or you just feel stagnated and you dont progress anymore?
Then you should try out my classes: I dont specialize in any specific style, but I grew to learn at least the basic tricks of the main styles (flamenco, blues, acoustic folk, electric pop, a bit of jazz)
It would truly be a pleasure to me to show you the keys about becoming a better guitar player, the details that make the difference. I can of course also show you how to play specific songs that you like, and how to slowly figure songs and melodies out by ear. If necessary I will correct your technique and show you how to maintain your guitar.

Ill be looking forward to you!
Pablo

As a self-taught guitar player, I know how confusing and overwhelming it can be; but doesn't have to be!!

Over the past 8 years, my journey has led me through pop, rock and jazz and I would love to help and guide you on your journey of learning to play and understand the music YOU love and enjoy - I will tailor my teaching to your tastes and skill level. I can teach in English and Croatian.

Join me for a no-strings-attached first session to see what I can offer you. Feel free to get in touch if you are interested in any of the following:

- learning and mastering chord voicings and quicker chord changes
- strumming and picking patterns, and how to mix them and improvise your own variations
- fingerpicking basic and intermediate techniques
- scales and basics of improvisation over chord changes
- basic and advanced concepts of music theory and how to apply them on the guitar (e.g. transposing on the fly, understanding keys and common patterns in music)
- ear training for quickly learning songs and melodies without tabs or chord sheets

I have a very flexible schedule and can come to your home for lessons, and also provide pdfs/printouts of important concepts and practice materials.
