Teaching Experience in detail in Guitar Classes
I would like to point out that I use unconventional time signatures in my compositions. Acoustic guitar is a combination of bass guitar, melody, harmony and the percussion. One can find a complete set of musical experience within acoustic guitar. I try to use eight-finger tapping with my right hand and use the left for bass, melody and harmony. This hand combination can be interchanged as well. However this rule is also not constant as my intention, as always, is to create a combination of musical notes to express my thoughts. The body of the guitar is used for adding the percussive element. This gives the effect of different musical instruments being played with only one single guitar. However, my compositions doesn't fall in any particular genre. This is my signature style of playing. As I am a soundscaper, I dabble with sounds and weave patterns which reflects my inner self. The strings of guitar gives voice to my unexpressed feelings. This unorthodox approach towards music is a product of my understanding of sounds around me. I use some established micro-techniques, where as some are created by myself in the process of trying to create something new and different.

"I have been learning guitar with Arpan da since last 6mnths and I could not ask for a better mentor for my guitar journey. He is very knowledgeable and very patient while listening to my queries. I like the way he adjusts with my area of interest and I can definitely see improvements in my playing after taking his classes. Will highly recommend him as a teacher for everyone from beginner to advanced level. "

"Arpan is a fantastic instructor. The course teaches how to read music and about the connection between the notes, scales, chords. I am a working professional and can spend 5-6 hours a week and I found his tutorial is great and it has given me enough exercises to practice and improve. "

"I highly recommend my Tutor Arpan for guitar classes. He has a very structure way of teaching, plans his classes and timing very well; my 1 hour class feels like some 15-20 mins for me as he makes it interesting and challenging and gets me involved in the class so. I enjoy Arpan’s classes - and his professional teaching style - To be frank i did not anticipate such a structured style and clear process when i thought of starting online classes - But after attending his classes - I am impressed and never felt its virtual/online class n its gives me a feel of more in person and real time class. Thanks Arpan for making my first ever instrument learning experience a memorable one - I am sure I would cherish this learning phase later. "
Anirban Bose
"I learnt so many things from Arpan Sen. I improve a lot than previous about chord progression, note selection, fingerstyle etc. His music attracts me a lot and I can relate his music to daily life. So he is one of my favourite guitarist and also a humble person. His patience, dedication inspire me to work hard and make something unique "
Bhabani Shankar mishra
