Homework
1 hour per week. Each week, students will be expected to practice what we have learned in class. How much practice will depend on the students goals, and parents expectations. Short but consistent bouts of practice go a lot further than long but rare practice sessions, so adding practice into your daily/weekly routine is going to give the best results. This is where the biggest improvement will come in.Class Experience
1:1 guitar lessons are the perfect for the young learner who wants hands on, one on one learning with a new instrument. I am passionate about seeing students step into their talents and build skills that will help them develop as a guitar player, while most importantly, expressing themselves in their music, and it's never too early to start. For the young learners, I start from ground zero, teaching them the basics of the guitar, the parts of the guitar, and get them playing with simple and fun 1 finger chords and exercises. We they will learn: - Guitar anatomy, how to properly hold the guitar - Guitar String names (numbers and note names) - 1 finger chords - Reading chord charts - Reading and playing TAB (exercises and short songs) - 1-4 chord songs - Basic strumming - Reading music basics - 1/4 notes and 1/8th notes, bar lines, repeat signs and more I play and teach both electric and acoustic guitar, and focus primarily on contemporary, pop, singer-songwriter, and folk style. If you are looking for classical, or hard rock, or heavy metal, there are probably other teachers that would be a better fir for you.
