Phase 1: Open Chords I like to start here because it is such a fundamental concept in guitar. No matter how long you've been playing, you will always find yourself going back to these open chords. You can build so many campfire sing-a-long songs with these chords. This section will also introduce some common rhythms and strumming patterns. The toughest part here is building finger strength but there's no better place to start! Read More

Ever since I was young, I was also very interested and focused in teaching. After doing so for many years I am now one of the most respected musical educators in Buenos Aires. At the age of 17, while studying my bachelor, I began teaching guitar and electric bass in my own studio at home. I also started teaching some short courses about musical theory and harmony, destined for all kinds of instrumentalists. Read More

What Books and Methods I use depend on whether the student has a particular style in mind from the beginning of their studies. I will often use the Frederick Noad series of Books with students who know they want to study Classical Guitar and then progress to repertoire when the time seems right. If they aren't sure of what direction they want to go in I will use the Hal Leonard or Mel Bay Books to get them started, and when I start to see what direction they want to go in I will begin introducing different songs and repertoire to see what direction they seem to be headed towards.

My teaching experience encompasses over a decade of teaching across three continents. I've taught in public high schools, music schools, multidisciplinary seminars and camps, universities (Yale, University of Toronto) conservatories (Cornish College of the Arts and Il Conservatorio della Svizzera italiana), and maintained a private studio since 2005. My students are an eclectic bunch and I couldn't be happier that this is the case; I regularly teach classical guitar lessons, help teenagers make hip hop and RnB records, work with budding sound designers, and coach avant-garde chamber music ensembles, just to name a few!
