    About Francois C.

    (2)
    I'm Francois! I have both a Bachelor of Music from Berklee College of Music and a Master of Music from Manhattan School of Music, two of the best music schools in the U.S.A. I graduated summa cum laude from both programs. Throughout my teaching career, I have been driven to help students achieve their very best. My dedication, patience and high standards are key attributes to how I approach teaching in both private lessons and lab teaching. In my opinion, anyone who puts in the time and work can learn and achieve their goals. I am a very versatile guitar player and teacher. We can basically cover any topics you wish to learn more about. Here are some examples: -Fundamentals of guitar sound and technique -Pop/Funk type of guitar playing -Jazz Improvisation -Solo Transcription -Music Theory -Ear Training -Composition I am also a Semi-Finalist of the Thelonious Monk Competition (the most prestigious jazz competition in the world) as well as a winner of other numerous contests.
