Ed Torres Guitar Lessons
About
My teaching approach:
You will be taught on a professional guitar that I will supply, for you to learn on, so you don't have to carry your guitar back and forth to your lesson. (You will have to get your own guitar to practice with at home) All paper notes and charts will be provided by me.
My influences are:
Steve Howe of YES, Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, Ritchie Blackmore, Chet Atkins, The Beatles, Al DiMeola
My guitar lessons take place in:
The teacher's studio or the student's home
Guitar Techniques:
Guidance In Equipment Selection, Recording and Production, Song Writing, Scales and Exercises, Jamming Skills, Improvisation, Performance, Vocal Accompaniment, Slide Guitar, Fingerstyle, Rhythm guitar, Lead guitar
Your first guitar lesson with me might include the following:
Introductory classes consist of getting to know the parts of the guitar, tuning the guitar, the easy part of a scale and a few easy chords
A guitar lesson with me might entail the following:
5 minutes of warm up exercises, 25 minutes of scale and improvisational soloing technique and 30 minutes of chord learning and execution in YOUR favorite songs.
The qualities I look for in an ideal guitar student might include the following:
Anyone who wants to learn to play for a career or just for a fun hobby or has songs that they've always loved and wanted to learn to play.
