Saugat Mani Rasaily

Hi, I’m a music teacher.
I teach guitar, ukulele, electric guitar, classical guitar… basically anything with strings that makes sound and doesn’t run away when tuned.

I teach all age groups—which means on any given day, I might be:

Tuning a ukulele for a 5-year-old who thinks it’s a boat paddle,

Explaining power chords to a teenager who calls me “bruh,”

Convincing a college student that "Wonderwall" is not a personality, and

Helping a retired uncle finally learn “Hotel California,” even though he calls it “Hotel Canada” every single time.

Some students bring notebooks.
Some bring snacks.
Some bring broken strings and a dream.
All are welcome.

Lessons usually start with music and end with:

Philosophy,

Existential dread about practice routines,

And occasional tea if we’re lucky.

I don't just teach how to play notes—I teach how to miss notes with confidence, and recover like a rockstar.

So whether you’re 6 or 60, whether you want to play bhajans, Beatles, or Bollywood, there’s a spot for you in class…
Just don’t ask me to tune your guitar five minutes before leaving—I have trust issues now.
