Bass Guitar with Masashi (Masa) N.

I've been teaching/tutoring music since 2007 with experience teaching music theory, aural skills, piano, and guitar. I can help students with a variety of musical tasks. The program I was enrolled in at SDSU ensured that I had a good grasp of a wide variety of instruments. *** Lesson Details *** Piano students can expect to be started with Faber Piano Adventures. Guitar students may get Alfred's Guitar Course or a book on classical guitar depending on the maturity/level of the student. After a few months, beginning students should expect to have gained a firm grasp of the basics of understanding music notation and should be able to play at least basic pieces. *** Studio Equipment *** Students obviously are not expected to bring a piano but if you are taking guitar/bass, do bring one. I can offer large discounts on new guitar/bass gear including instruments, amplifiers, pedals, accessories, you name it. *** Specialties *** Piano - classical, rock/pop, jazz. Guitar - rock/pop, classical, and jazz. I prefer to start students with classical when possible as a means of getting hands to start finger-picking early.
