Teaching Experience in detail in Guitar Classes
Teaching and music are two of the things which I accidentally inherited from my family. As of 2020, I have been playing the guitar for nearly 14 years and teaching music/guitar for more than 7 years. As for my musical qualifications, due to popular demand of my patrons, I have recently taken to grade exams. I have qualified my Grade 6 from London College of Music this year with distinction and probably by the end of 2021, I'll complete my Grade 8. As not all sizes fit everyone, it is an injustice to push everyone into the same curriculum. I have always been interested in pushing and guiding my students in realizing their own musical aspirations. I teach the bare minimum that you need to play most techniques on the guitar then I delve into what you wish to learn. This method to be extremely fruitful and effective for most guitarists no matter where you are in your musical journey. When I am not teaching, I am mostly composing, writing songs and recording them. You can also learn from my singer-songwriter side if you are interested in that sort of thing too. I also enjoy travelling, reading books and cycling.

Strumming can be challenging for beginners because it demands you to anticipate the next beat, which is the standard process for musicians to maintain time while playing/singing. I recommend students to first understand the pulse before getting into counting beats. Once that's done, clap out different rhythmic phrases and while playing also count the beats where you aren't strumming.
