ENGLISH, SPANISH OR PORTUGUESE GUITAR LESSONS!! BE MORE COMFORTABLE OR PRACTICE YOUR SECOND LANGUAGE WHILE PRACTICING GUITAR!
Guitar teacher for more than 15 years, graduated as a guitar teacher at the National University of La Plata ( Argentina ) and Master of Music and improvisation by the Federal University of Minas Gerais - UFMG (Brazil ) . Currently he is lapsing the Graduate Performance Diploma in The Longy School of Music of Bard College (Boston , USA ) .
Eventually , after several years of teaching, while having classes in different universities around the world, I have developed a broad sense on personalized approach to music students , particularly guitar students. Each individual has their own technical, aesthetic and different goals , so the method should be determined during the process, minimally in the interview and during the course of the first classes . Based on a spectrum ranging from :
-Berklee Methid of popular music and improvisation
-Abel Carlevaro Method of classical guitar .
-European / Latin American tonal traditional language
