As a full-time online guitar teacher, I can assure you that learning remotely can be just as effective as in-person lessons.
I started teaching online in 2007, and even before the pandemic, 75% of my lessons were already conducted online.
In the early days I combined Skype with pre-recorded video lessons, and later on some of those videos became the first content in my YouTube channel.

As a full-time online guitar teacher, I can assure you that learning remotely can be just as effective as in-person lessons.
I started teaching online in 2007, and even before the pandemic, 75% of my lessons were already conducted online.
In the early days I combined Skype with pre-recorded video lessons, and later on some of those videos became the first content in my YouTube channel.
In fact, my most popular YouTube video, with over 565K views, was originally a private lesson for one of my students in Dublin.
I work hard to ensure that every lesson is tailored to each student's musical preferences, level, and learning pace.
To provide more value than ever before, I have recently started recording duets remotely with my students and uploading them to YouTube. I have already uploaded 10 of them, and I am working on several more which will be available soon.
All my lessons are accompanied by comprehensive notes and materials, so there's no need to take any notes during the lesson. In addition, I create a page for each student in Google Classroom, where I will share all the lesson's notes in PDF format with corresponding MP3 audio. This way, you'll be able to listen to anything I transcribe.
I normally use Guitar Pro 8, which is a great software to create great transcriptions and learning material.
I can transcribe in both tablature (TAB) and standard notation, and I provide chord and scale diagrams, backing tracks, and more to make learning easier and more enjoyable.
I am available to answer any questions in between lessons, so you don't have to wait until the next session to get the help you need.
I use Zoom, which I believe is the best platform for online music lessons, and I'm happy to show you how to use it if needed.
Regarding the contents, I'm happy to teach whatever song or subject you would like to learn, and I can also prepare you for the graded exams with Trinity College (Classical and Rock), Rockschool, ABRSM (The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music), and the Registry of Guitar Tutors & London College of Music. I have plenty of experience preparing students for these exams and have taken them myself with great success.
