    Learn lead guitar from a metal master đŸ€˜ Or hang out and strum some chords too if that's your jam!

    I've been playing guitar for over 15 years. Initially I was self taught, so I understand that having fun is the biggest motivator! I specialize in Metal, Folk, and Rock music, but I'm a competent teacher for whatever you enjoy! I have a unique approach to structuring exercises and have a tendency to try to make them as efficient as possible. When you're practicing them expect to be working on at least two different skills simultaneously. I believe this approach can accelerate your growth. I keep up a YouTube channel under the username Zarochi (as well as Spotify and other socials) if you would like to see examples of my own playing.

    About Ally F.

    I have been making music for over 15 years. I was initially a self taught guitar player, but since then I have branched out and picked up a plethora of instruments! I understand that the most important part of making music is having fun, and I strive to ensure that is the case with my students. That doesn't mean that I won't assign focused exercises to learn, but I will meet with you to determine the best things to teach you in order to get you where you want to go without it being too boring. I play Guitar, Bass, Mandolin and Bouzouki at an advanced level, but I also know enough music theory to pick up a lot of other instruments and just play them (including drums and piano). I am an accomplished Metal guitarist with a YouTube channel under the username Zarochi if you would like to check out some of my original work. There are also examples of my various folk songs and acoustic compositions available on my channel. No stranger to complex techniques I am able to teach everything from gallops to artificial/pinch harmonics and even thumping! I don't play a lot of Jazz personally, but I'm familiar with the necessary chord shapes to get you going in the right direction. I am also a very capable folk teacher for Mandolin and Bouzouki. I can teach you double/triple stops and chop chords to get you jamming out like a pro!
