Mastery Evaluation
1-2 hours per week. During our lessons, I'll be giving targets of what and most importantly how to practice. There will be targets to get to for every next class. There will be very detailed timestamps provided so that a student can go over a specific section as many times as possible, quickly, if necessary
Grading
I'll be more than happy (and excited!) to receive a voice/video recording of any of the tracks taught, either for feedback or confirmation you have succeeded in this course!

Class Experience

Beginner Level
Join Charlie P in interactive 1:1 Electric/Acoustic weekly/self paced lessons where students will master performance, technique and theory! Enjoy watching your students confidence grow after every class! 

*I have designed these videos to feel as near to private 1:1 tuition as possible, recording all classes in one take and providing a call and response technique with each student, as if we were communicating together!*


Students will learn…
  👉 How to play Guitar by ear, copying musical patterns via call and response finger number patterns.
  👉 How to remember and play all 6 strings of the guitar with a “catchy” song and phrase!
 👉How too alternate between two chords effortlessly with precise interactive targets!

  👉 How to “Jam” live with me, as we learn and craft the art of soloing/improvising together with two specific scale patterns!  These in turn can be played over your favourite songs!!
  👉 How to develop the art of live performance and recording from a teacher who actively gigs worldwide!
