Music is life, so I love music and I love sharing and teaching my students the best way to guide them using only music as an educational resource, but also the motivation to exploit their talents in the best way. To be able to express their art in any way and at the same agile rhythm so that they themselves feel their advances and their growth not only the musicians but also the artists and therefore the best human beings. The wonder of teaching and being able to leave a legacy to many people is a blessing from God and I am absolutely grateful to be able to offer many more artists my knowledge but above all my values.
My first experiences with teaching music were at the same time that I began to learn to play my main instrument, the guitar. This goes back to my childhood, because at that moment my teacher realized the facilities that I had not only to learn quickly but also to help my classmates who for different circumstances were not so much facilitated. From there I was always interested in learning and, whenever I could, teach also the satisfaction of being able to transmit knowledge of art as beautiful as music is absolutely comforting. I have always maintained the teaching as primordial, being able to combine it with a number of activities throughout my life successfully and of course acquiring the necessary experience to give my students the tranquility of very surely and very fast to learn with me this beautiful instrument.
In my experience, the best way for beginning students, and how I start my method, is to first make them aware that they can develop their abilities and this is done starting with activities that are far from tedious and that on the contrary fill their initial expectations In order to foster taste and love for music and especially for the instrument they want to learn to interpret. As you begin to see your progress, it is at that moment that you begin to apply the fundamental theoretical concepts and that give rise to the progress of the student.
As in music, teaching and the learning process has in each person their own rhythm, their own goals, their own methods and I am always ready to take into account that each student is a different world. The important thing for any student is the attitude and it is very important for us their guides to awaken a good attitude to learn from the students to make it easier to find and enliven that love, taste and passion for music and By the instrument they are going to learn. As the best reward for an artist on the stage is applause, the best reward as a guide for my students is that they achieve their goals and see them play with love and love to the music.
