Guitar and music lessons (Guitar, Theory, Composition, Ear training, Improvisation, and more)

From 86 C$ /h

Hello all, I am Rotem (26), I am guitarist, composer, and music theorist. I am currently a doctoral candidate in the Artistic Research department at the Kunstuniversität Graz and Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK) under the supervision of Isabel Mundry and Deniz Peters. I have a master's degree in composition from Zurich University of the Arts, where I studied with Isabel Mundry and Burkhard Kinzler and focused on composition, historical temperaments, and counterpoint. I studied my bachelor’s in jazz guitar performance at the New England Conservatory, where I studied guitar with Joe Morris and composition with Stratis Minakakis (2023). Prior to that, I completed a diploma program at The Center for Jazz Studies in Tel Aviv, in partnership with The New School in New York (2021).

I have been performing, touring and teaching around the world: New York, Washington DC, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, Poland, and more!

I have grown up with education both in jazz and classical practices, and therefore am very versatile and fluent with both worlds which i believe creates a unique and interesting perspective for approaching music.

In our lessons, we could focus on anything you'd like to: guitar, music theory, composition, ear training, electronic music, improvisation (jazz and free improvisation), rhythm, and many more.

If you're currently preparing for auditions, exams, or just feel like picking up an instrument or learn about music, feel more than welcome to get in touch!

The lessons can take place either in my house in the 15th district or your place.

Looking forward to hearing from you and get to know you, and please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions :)

Dear future student, I wish you much success. I have been playing the piano for 13 years. I believe that for good practice you have to master the theory. Children learn best through play, while adults learn best through example.

Are you looking for a piano teacher?

Hi! My name is Pooya and I am a music student and live in Vienna. In addition to my studies, I teach children and young people from the age of 6. So far I have only taught beginners, but I am very interested in teaching intermediate and advanced young musicians as well. I try to prioritize understanding my students and how they connect with music.
Patience is part of becoming a good musician, but it's also much more about loving and understanding music. I would love to share my musical knowledge with your child and teach them pieces that their heart desires.

I would be happy to come to your home to teach. Contact me if you are interested and have availability times. Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

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.

My guitar lessons are adapted to each student's level, musical interests, and personal goals. I teach children, teenagers, and adults, from complete beginners to advanced players.

Depending on what you are interested in, we can work on classical guitar, rock and popular music, technique, chords, reading music, rhythm, improvisation, interpretation, or simply learning to play the music you love.

For beginners, I focus on building a comfortable and solid technical foundation while making music from the very first lessons. For more experienced players, we can work in greater depth on sound, technique, musical expression, interpretation, and developing an individual approach to the instrument.

I also have a background in composition and electronic music, so lessons can include songwriting, composition, improvisation, recording, or working with music technology for students who are interested in exploring beyond traditional guitar lessons.

The lessons are shaped around you – whether you want to learn guitar from scratch, return to the instrument after a break, prepare for a performance, or develop your playing further.

Lessons are available in English, German, and Hebrew.

Hi! My name is Finlay.
I'm a 26 year old musician from Ireland.
I have been playing guitar for 12 years.
I offer classes for beginner and intermediate guitar players personalized to your tastes. I want to get people who are new or improving excited to play music and give them the skills to play the way they wish they could. The way I teach my class is by breaking down your favourite songs and helping you master the techniques used so you can use them yourself. The key to learning guitar is learning to play what you love.
I love playing music and helping others to enjoy it as well. I will design my classes to suit your tastes and goals.
I offer classes in English. I speak German but not enough to provide the best lessons I can.
So if you would also like to practice your English, then we could be a perfect fit!
Get in touch!

With a completed Bachelor's degree in Performance and Instrumental Vocal Pedagogy from the Music and Arts Private University and the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna, and currently pursuing a Master's degree in these subjects, I bring a solid foundation of musical expertise. I am a multiple prize winner at international and national competitions in Asia and Europe, and I regularly perform solo and chamber music ensemble concerts throughout Europe. I have 10 years of teaching experience and work at a private music school.

I teach guitar in the classical, pop and fingerstyle genres! With me you will not only learn to play the instrument, but also music theory, chord progression and arrangement during the lessons.
I always create individual lesson plans for each person. All ages welcome!
