🙌🏻 My teaching style is based on positive reinforcement, that means that my goal as a teacher is to create a positive classroom environment where students can feel relaxed, comfortable, and happy as they learn. 👨🏻🏫 What sets my lessons apart from others? I use professional lighting and audio equipment so that the sound and video quality is professional and clear. I also use three webcams which are pointed at different parts of the guitar, with different close ups. This way each student can clearly see the instrument, it's even better than being there in person! In this 4-week live course, students will learn: 🎸 The anatomy of a guitar (course is for both acoustic and electric guitar) 🎸 Name of the strings and how to tune the guitar properly The app "GuitarTuna" is perfect for tuning, as well as guitar tuners that clip onto the guitar. Although, students will learn the mechanics of tuning the guitar 🎸 How to hold the guitar neck correctly 🎸 Intro to strumming with a pick (Please make sure our new rockstar has a pick for the lesson) 🎸 How to read chord charts 🎸 Basic chords Playing guitar can be challenging and it might take some students longer than others to get their guitar to sound perfect. It requires hand muscles to get stronger, which can only be achieved with practice. In this class students will be introduced to new concepts which I highly recommend that they practice weekly. Students for this class are required to have a guitar that fits their hand (if a guitar is too big, it might discourage your learner), with all 6 strings. Each week I will post all the material we review in class in PDF format. I strongly encourage parents/students to print out these pages if possible and keep them together in a folder. Students are not required to have any in music theory or guitar to join the class. If your child already knows a few guitar chords, this class might serve as extra practice and reinforcement for their learning.
Learning Goals
Our goal is that by the end of the course, each student has a solid and strong foundation. Starting to play music or a new instrument can be daunting, these lessons are a great introduction to the music world. The material they learn in this 4-week course will provide them with the knowledge and skills that they will use in their journey as guitarists.

Hello! My name is Julian. I have been a music teacher for over a decade. I graduated from the University of Miami with a degree in music education and performance degree. As a professional musician, I have experience recording, gigging, doing studio sessions, and was a music director for many years. I've had students of all ages, cultures, and personalities. I focus my lessons on positive reinforcement, meaning that I want my students to feel welcome, comfortable, and have a positive experience in our classroom. Music should be fun, and I make sure my students see it that way! In my classroom, I also use professional lighting and audio equipment. I use two different webcams so that my students can see the instruments from different angles. I am currently offering lessons in acoustic guitar, electric guitar, classical guitar, ukulele, bass, and music theory. I will also provide all the material for each of the classes. If any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me.
