Guitar Lessons in Moreno Valley, CA

Instruments: Guitar

One of the most popular instruments of our today musical world is guitar but it is not an easy instrument to play at the advance level. I actively taught classical guitar in some of the top music institutes in Spain from 2005 to 2014 up until relocating to California. I have learned through experience that many students have difficulty getting started with effective practicing. I have made this my essential goal to help them be more motivated towards this task.

I have been teaching music for about 4 years now. I have taught guitar at the top music schools in Huntington Beach and Burbank CA. I have worked with students as young as 4 and 5 years old. I use a unique approach that combines rhythm and chord recognition with the essence of fun and motor skills. My older students learn all their favorite songs from Pop to Jazz to Rock, while we focus on the importance of memorization and ear training. Read More

Having taught guitar both privately and as an independent contractor, I have experience teaching a wide variety of student types. What I try to do is bring the aspects of the student's playing to their attention that may not have otherwise noticed. I try to satisfy the student's curiosity as well as make recommendations for areas of focus in the student's practice routine that I find valuable. Especially in the case of children, my students certainly notice an improvement in their ability to focus after taking lessons with me for an extended period, and parents have a lot to benefit from this as well.

I do enjoy teaching out of books, especially younger children. It gives a visual to emphasize what I am teaching. A lot of the books I use are from Hal Leonard, but then I also have custom exercises for all different genres of music. Younger students, I tend to teach reading music with single notes as it is easier on the hands. It then creates an avenue to introduce basic music theory concepts. Read More

The tools and tricks of the trade: with me, you gain help understanding the musical alphabet forward and backward. You will spend your first few sessions actually writing more than doing, as you cannot drive a car unless we teach you how to DRIVE. Right!? We can use your materials, we can get some you think you'd enjoy, or we can use mine. I always start by assessing your level of performance, then adding to that until we achieve the level you so desire. Read More

My teaching experience began during my time spent as an undergraduate in college. Since then, I have become increasingly dedicated and engaged with my commitment to teaching students music / guitar. Consistent practice and commitment to the instrument is always something I encourage in students, something I believe comes naturally when students find themselves constantly enjoying/having fun learning/playing the instrument. Above all, I do believe that having fun while learning an instrument is not only ideal, but necessary. Read More
