Trusted teacher: Hello! Alright, I'll break it down into parts. If you look for a more "narrowed description" just scroll down to where I made a list :) My name is Francisco, and I'm a guitar player from Argentina, currently living in Berlin. I am very enthusiastic about teaching and sharing the energy to grow musically with my students. I have taught music for 7 years in schools and privately at home. With private lessons, my aim is to adjust to the student's likes and abilities. I am attentive to the needs and the reasons why someone is wanting to play and learn music. And I try to encourage the curiosity and spirit of making music and not follow what is "considered" that you should learn. What to expect from the first lesson with me? To get to know each other. That way I see what you like and what you don't, what you already play, and your learning pace. Probably I can share with you something new already, and from there, we will build a "program" according to what you want your rhythm and time availability. I value singularity and I like to get to know who I teach, so that way I can help them better. It can be first chords and ways of learning new songs, improvisational tools, or pure harmony and theory stuff. Because everyone is different, for example, if you like Rock I will go in that direction and teach you the elements that make Rock sound like it does and I won't teach you Jazz Harmony, if you like Classical music we will go over the abilities that you have to have to execute this kind of music, the same goes for the styles that I play. My skills: I play and have played mainly Fingerstyle Guitar, Jazz, Argentine Tango, Jazz Manouche, Rock, Rockabilly, and Experimental. I have worked a lot playing Bossa Nova at some point. I don't like teaching something that I don't know. So for example, oriental music I couldn't teach. And if we come to a point where I am not helpful anymore, I will say so. What I do like is learning with students, it is often the case that your students teach you new ways of thinking about music and I find that super exciting! I was lucky to travel a bit of the world playing music with different projects and musicians that I admire, I always did this playing mainly Jazz music. I have played in bars and clubs and theaters in New York, Boston, Buenos Aires, and in different cities around Switzerland, Germany, France, Holland. I was also part of several orchestras (Jazz, Tango, and Rock) in Argentina and the US. I teach beginner - intermediate - advanced levels of different topics: - how to improve technique (right hand and left hand) - how to improvise (elements of improvisation, vocabulary, phrasing, etc.) - how to visualize the fretboard - how to learn songs by ear, and how to read music (or tab) - how harmony and music theory work - specific genres such as Jazz, Gypsy Jazz, Bossa Nova, Tango, Rock, and Fingerstyle. The lessons can be also in German (basic, so you might need a bit of patience with me!), Spanish (that's my mother tongue), or English. They can be at my place (Wedding), all corona safe, or online via Zoom/Skype. Shoot me a message if you are interested! All the best, Francisco

Trusted teacher: Do you want to START or IMPROVE your technique and sound? Do you feel STUCK in your progress? Are you BORED of always doing the same thing and in the same way? Do you need a STUDY PLAN to improve at home? Together we can give that boost to your development and make you feel MOTIVATED to practice seeing REAL progress. You are the protagonist. In addition, we will create a good musical FOUNDATION so that you can face any genre or style that you propose. We can learn from more classical pieces or from modern music (from the sXX). I ADAPT to your MUSICAL TASTES. Even the greatest gave classes to learn and improve! We can investigate STYLES such as (Pop, Blues, Rock, Classic, Acoustic, Soul, R&B, Country, etc). We can develop your TECHNIQUE so that you can make a qualitative leap in your sound. We will talk about music THEORY, if you want, so you have a good baggage. I can teach you to IMPROVISE and COMPOSE. We can prepare TESTS for conservatory or Rockschool exams if you need it. : I have several groups where I bring my students together online, to give them extra training. Groups of: - Musical language. - Harmony and Theory. - Auditory training. - Composition and Improvisation. - (These classes are recorded so you can see them at another time if you can't attend). [[ Possibility of ONLINE classes ]] MY TRAINING AND CAREER: Degree in Teaching in Musical Ed., Higher Degree in the Royal Conservatory of Madrid and Professional Graduate in modern music (Blues, Rock, Country, Funk, Pop, etc) by Alfonso X. More than 10 years of teaching experience as a music teacher and private teacher. Active studio and live musician for different artists.

Can
Can is a great teacher. I took my first guitar lesson with him after learning to play easy things on my own for two years and getting stuck on more difficult things. Can teaches music and guitar from a point of view that makes sense and makes it easier to understand how everything is structured. He can easily pick up mistakes from your playing, point out things to improve and provide excercises to work on those. After only few meetings I feel I have better understanding on the theory behind guitar playing, I feel I have improved technically after being stuck with my progress for quite a while, and I have a drive to learn more again. Would definitely suggest lessons with Can!

Marinella
Madi is very knowledgeable, as both a coach and a singer. She provided precise, in-depth, and careful guidance with anatomical explanations to help me discover and explore my voice. She's super nice too! I always felt open to making mistakes and improving on them to build my confidence. I'm looking forward to continuing with her. Would certainly recommend.
