Lessons
Good day,
I am presently looking for beginning to intermediate
students who have an avid-and-sincere interest in studying the guitar.
About me...
I am a semi-retired
individual, whom has a passionate interest in passing on to others what
I have been able to glean over the years in both the pedagogical, the
technical, and the performance aspects of the guitar.
I have over
40 years experience - in both the "professional" and the "tutoring"
capacity, and have written an 800+ guitar instruction manual entitled "The
Procedural|Linear Approach to Learning the Guitar". I have also
scored over 2000+ arrangements for the guitar in solo, duet and
"music-minus-one" formats.
Having also been involved
professionally as the sole proprietor of a local computer servicing
facility since the mid 90's, I also have experience working with
"digital audio" such as...
– MIDI, Digital Audio Workstations,
Mixer-in-a-box, and Guitar Amplifier Simulation|Modeling.
• Note: As
a "computer consultant", I have written over 800+ technical articles
covering a wide-rang of topics. With regards to digital audio, I have
written well over 3000 documents covering all aspects of the guitar as
it would pertain to digital audio and PC-based systems.
About the lessons...
The lessons provided are 1)
private only, 2) in-studio only, and 3) instructor-led only, guitar
instruction with the studio located in central Maple Ridge.
• A
criminal record check is available if so desired.
About lesson fees....
The lessons will be provided
absolutely-and-entirely "for free" and
therefore, at no cost.
• No, THIS OFFER IS NOT A GIMMICK! I am truly
sincere in my desire to assist other "like-minded" guitarists!
However, if a "stipend" is offered, such will be considered "for
services rendered".
• Such a "stipend" - though suggested, is not
necessarily expected.
The only note-worthy and
important considerations are...
1) which was previously
stated, to "...have an avid-and-sincere
interest in studying the guitar",
2) that the perspective
student understands what is meant by "instructor-led
only", and
3) that the minimum age requirements is 12.
Thus, it is imperative, that perspective students understand what
the terms, "avid", "sincere", "study" and "instructor-led only"
really-and-truly mean in the context of the guitar and its music.
In closing...
If you should thus
discover that you have interest in the above, please e-mail for my
contact information - so that we can discuss the above in further
detail.
• Please note, I do not own a cell, so I am unable to text.
In closing, I would like to thank you for both your time and
attention to the above.
"A teacher takes a hand, opens a mind, and
touches a heart."
