Friendly young man who showed up at the scheduled time. I immediately got along with my eleven-year-old son. He was immediately able to identify my son's problems: lack of self-confidence and concentration.

It's been a while since I work as a trainer I can help in any branch up to the first year level of college (Swiss) and more specifically I offer help in German (being native German) and in English for 4 years of college.

Guitar workshops: personalized lessons / private training
Folk or classical acoustic guitar. The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation. For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...). For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...). Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points: -Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear - Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords - Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand - Learning of different pieces of your choice - Left hand control exercises, speed and precision - Learning arpeggios - Work around muscle memory - Learning improvisation, musical play with others - Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used -Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results -Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument - Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone -Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge - Learn tablatures / tabs & in English. Note : - Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase. - As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy. - Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice. THE TEACHER : Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords. PLACES : - Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Thomas
Guitarist graduated from the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève gives guitar lessons at all levels in the Canton of Geneva
My name is Thomas and I am a young guitarist motivated and anxious to transmit my love of music, always with pleasure and good humor! Here is some information about my background: After obtaining my license in musicology from the University Lumière Lyon 2 and my DEM in classical guitar from the Conservatory of Lyon, I continued my studies at the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève where I validated my master's degree in interpreter then, last year, a master's degree in pedagogy. I have been teaching for many years, the practice of teaching having always occupied a central place in my philosophy as a musician. I am as comfortable with perfect beginners wanting to discover the instrument as with confirmed students who would seek to prepare for the entrance exams to higher conservatories, universities and higher education centers. In addition to playing the guitar, I complete the lessons with notions of musical culture, a minimum of music theory, historical landmarks and funny anecdotes. The course of the course, being by nature personalized for each student, is not immutable. However, a standard one-hour course is usually organized like this: - Beginning of the course (discussion, tuning, warm-up ...) - Work of this week's track - Choice and deciphering of a new piece, presentation of the composer, explanations ... - End of the course (musical games etc ...)
