Private Live Online Guitar Lessons

I design my guitar lessons around each individual student and strive to keep the lesson light and enjoyable while also aiming for a high standard of education. Whether you are looking to play for pleasure at home,around the campfire,or want to learn practical music theory for composition and/or improvisation. I have instruction programs for all levels and styles from beginner to advanced and from ages 7 years on up.

After the first lesson you will be making music, playing songs and you will be on your way to achieving your musical goals with the guitar. Whether you have an electric or acoustic guitar, your lessons will be tailored to you and your instrument. Guitar playing requires a knowledge of chords, melody, picking technique as well as knowing songs all of which we will begin to learn in your first lesson.

With 10+ years as a music teacher and professional musician I have picked up many approaches that will insure you are making the most progress and truly finding your musical voice.

I teach young children using fun songs, games and classical guitar technique. I also teach adults and specialize in contemporary guitar. I welcome many styles of music, pop, rock, as well as folk genres of Latin America. I emphasize good posture, tone and musicality, and always a high level of enjoyment with the process!

Mark Catalano is an American composer, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and music producer.

"I started teaching private music lessons my senior year of high school, in 2006. Since then I've taught over 50 different students of all ages from 3 years old to 61 years old. While still living in Ohio, I was the one and only official guitar teacher for Guitar Center Youngstown through the duration of 2008-2009. In late 2009, after moving to Los Angeles, I continued to teach privately all around the city. I currently live in West Hollywood with my wife and dog. I plan to continue teaching private students for the rest of my life."

As a recent graduate from Berklee College of Music, I am well versed in many styles and can cater to many fields of musical study. My principle instrument is guitar and I have been playing for over 10 years. Between my college education and private lessons from my younger years, I am able to balance building skills and having fun learning the instrument. I believe the most important part of learning an instrument is the desire to practice. To achieve that I want to give my students lessons that they find fun and engaging while they expand their knowledge and understanding of the instrument. All ages and skill levels are welcome I look forward to helping my students advance their guitar playing in any way they want.
