Corona, NY Acoustic Guitar Lessons

All levels are welcome.
Blues-Rock-Jazz

Learn all aspects of guitar playing in any style!

My youngest student is 5! And I work with a teacher who specializes in intermediate and advanced whom I transition my more students over to once they reach a more advanced level. I teach basic plucking, chords and strum patterns of your favorite tunes!

I started playing acoustic guitar when I was seven years old. I have been playing and teaching mostly bluegrass, old time, Irish, blues, and swing jazz styles for many years. I have taught both privately and have also done various workshops at festivals. I have taught guitar multiple years for instance at the Gettysburg Bluegrass Festival in PA.
My students learn to have fun with music. Students can work on rhythms, melodies, improvisation, song writing, getting into and/or hanging on in a jam session, etc.

I am an experienced guitar teacher with 10+ years of professional career behind me.

I'm looking for eager students of all experience levels and ages! I structure my lessons so students learn what they want to learn, while also building a strong foundation of good playing habits (learning the right songs that you makes you a better musician!). I specialize in pop, rock and funk. I use some of my own transcriptions and the ones I acquired from Berklee College of Music, and also have the following tools available to use during lessons: sound recording equipment, sheet music, and more.

Let's plug in that guitar and start rocking out :)

Guitar lessons are a fun, laid-back, and encouraging experience for anyone to pursue. My lessons are specifically designed to accomplish the goals of the student, whether it's as simple as playing along with your favorite songs, or obtaining the musical foundation to begin writing your own songs. Former students have thanked me for being laid-back, non-rigid, and down to earth. My diverse musical background lets me offer students of any genre a fast track to learning the skills they desire, and having fun along the way as well!

I like to teach, to make my students feel good with the class I teach, I am a good guitarist I am a teacher of the first guitar in the bachata and ballad genre and classical music in case some of my students are interested in learning to play bachata I am preparing to teach him to play that musical rhythm. I'm a Spanish speaking teacher, a little English, and Italian

I am a music professional and an experienced teacher with 13 years of experience in teaching acoustic and electric guitars. My curriculum is divided into beginner, intermediate and expert levels for all age groups. My lessons are customized and catered to the needs and goals of each student. Being a guitar recording artist and having taught over 200 students, I also offer unique lessons on how to record your own guitar in a studio. I bring my professional experience of composing and playing guitars for movies, which makes my teaching style and curriculum very exciting!
If you are really good and are a fast learner, I let you record guitars in my studio. So bring it on guys!

With over two decades of private teaching experience and 15 years teaching music theory, history and sight singing/ear training at Hunter College, I know how to tailor my approach to each individual’s unique needs and learning style. My goal as a teacher is to take the mystery out of making great, expressive music.

In addition to embracing traditional methods of guitar teaching, I also incorporate powerful muscular and energetic awareness techniques that help beginning students quickly build a solid technique, and enable more advanced players to solve thorny technical problems and play with greater freedom and ease.

"Why is this part so hard? It should be easy!" I often hear students say. My years of experience in observing and helping students allows me to spot the sometimes hidden technical obstacles that are holding them back from smoothly executing a transition. By identifying those specific moments, you will know exactly what to focus on so as to make the most efficient ...
