Great guitar lessons, Moma is very patient with his students, he makes it fun and my guitar skills got much better very quickly. After two years of his lessons, Moma is still equally passionate and enthusiastic about it.
First of all, I always like to hear specific reasons for my student to start taking guitar lessons and the amount of time that they can put into practice every week. My next question usually relates to the specific bands, artists, songs and musical styles that they would like to learn or create. After the answers are establish, I usually come up with a specific plan for their lessons.
I am professionally trained musician and I am very close to completing my doctoral degree in guitar performance at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities.
Besides that, I received personal lessons from world leading guitarists such as Sharon Isbin (USA), Manuel Barrueco (USA/Cuba), Sergio Assad (Brasil), Raphaella Smiths (Belgium), Hubert Kappel (Germany), Pavel Steidl (Czech Republic), Zoran Dukić (Croatia), Denis Azabagić (Bosnia and Herzegovina), Vladimir Gorgach (Russia), Iliana Matos (Cuba), Lily Afshar (Iran), Ede Roth (Hungary), Costas Cotsiolis (Greece), Gianpaolo Bandini (Italy), Dušan Bogdanović (Serbia), Anastasia Bardina (Russia), Joseph Urshamli (Israel).
If you are coming to my place or teaching you online, I offer 30-minute ($30), 45-minute ($40), or 60-minute lessons ($50). If I am coming to your place, I offer only 60-minute lessons, and I never charge extra for travel fees.
I have been playing guitar from the age of 8. My passion for teaching started early on while I was helping my friends and family members to get better in their guitar playing. Later on during my college years, I started teaching in various schools and I am still enjoying doing it.
I worked with all kinds of students. From kids aged 7 and above, retired seniors who wanted to keep themselves musically active, to students who aimed for professional success in music whom I guided to win prizes at international guitar competitions.
Recently I performed concerts and gave lessons worldwide at events such as 2019 Hong Kong Altamira International Guitar Symposium, 2019 University of Melbourne International Guitar Conference, 2019 Costa Rica’s Universidad Nacional Artist Series, 2019 ShenZhen Fuge International Guitar Week, 2018 Thailand International Guitar Festival, 2018 Miami International GuitART Festival, and many others.2019 Hong Kong Altamira International Guitar Symposium, 2019 University of Melbourne International Guitar Conference, 2019 Costa Rica’s Universidad Nacional Artist Series, 2019 ShenZhen Fuge International Guitar Week, 2018 Thailand International Guitar Festival, 2018 Miami International GuitART Festival
My advice is that customers should come up with specific ideas about the styles of music they would like to play or create and about specific reasons for them to start taking guitar lessons. In the next step a teacher should provide a customer with specific ideas focusing on how their musical relationship will look like according to the expectations of both sides.
First of all, they should think why guitar lessons are important for them and how much time they will actually be able to put into practicing. The second set of questions will relate to specific bands, artists, and musical styles that they would like to play, or kinds of music that they would like to create by themselves. Once these answers are established, both sides can start enjoying the process of making music together.
