Overview:
Hi, my name is Abbas and I am a music professional. I completed my Masters degree in classical guitar in 1993 and have been a producer and composer for the last 10 years working for the TV and media industry. I consider it part of my responsibility to pass on what I have learned to others. My teaching philosophy is very simple. We play music to have fun and I try to cultivate that feeling in my students. I strive for a balanced mix of performance technique, theory and also improvisation, which is very important to nurture creativity. One on one classes can be arranged either in my studio, online or at your home. We will work on songs or music that you like and you will be expected to practice at home, in order to see any progress. The more you practice, the faster your progress. I can teach you classical, electric or acoustic guitar. In classical guitar you can expect to read music, which I will also teach you. In electric guitar, we will work on songs that you like and learn about tone and technique. In acoustic guitar you can expect to strum or fingerpick simple songs and perhaps sing along, if you like.
EXPERIENCE
I have been teaching for the last thirty years although I took a break in the middle to focus on my composition and production career, I would now like to put a greater emphasis on teaching and passing on what I have learned. My main emphasis for the student is to create an environment where they are having fun whilst learning. I encourage improvising and not taking it too seriously. I encourage a foundation of theory and established technique for all players, regardless of style and genre. I also encourage students to be versatile and be able to play acoustic or electric depending on need.
METHODS USED
Method or style technique used will always depend on the preference and requirements of the student. It will also depend on the style of music. For example, classical guitar requires perfection of technique for good execution. This requires practice of scales, arpeggios and such. However, if the student is older and just wants to be able to strum a few chords then that requires a different approach where we focus on simple technique and work on things like rhythm or posture etc. In all cases technique is at the service of fun and creativity.
LESSON STYLE
The student will have the choice to decide the music that he/she would like to learn to play. My aim is to teach the student all the tools he/she will require to play and enjoy their instrument. My aim is also to make the student independent by introducing him to resources where he can find music to study or learn at his own pace. This is the start of a lifelong love and relationship with your instrument and I would like to make it a part of their reality. This requires, above all, a love for music and the joy of playing an instrument.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
