Music education for everyone! I teach everybody from 6 years on.
I’m looking back of an teaching experience of more than 30 years.

Skills

  • Guitar techniques: strumming and picking chords, using tirando and apoyando strokes, and learning how to play legato melodies
  • Notes & rhythm: because being able to read music comes in handy
  • Improvisation: Improvising over chord progressions is a lot of fun
  • Ear training: developing an intuitive understanding of what you hear
