Hello! I am Sean Hastings, a local music teacher who specializes in guitar and saxophone. I work as a general music and band teacher in Brooklyn, and have experience with students of many ages. I like to get down to the core of what excites my students and help them hone their skills in that area; whether it be pop, rock, jazz, classical, or simply just bouncing around learning whatever they like that day! I can host students in my own space or travel to their space. If you’re interested in booking a lesson, reach out!

My teaching approach: For "absolute beginners" I start with note reading, chord playing, proper fingering, basic music theory, and playing simple songs. Material is presented in a graded fashion so the student's learning is enhanced. For intermediate to advanced students I begin sight reading studies, advanced chord playing, scales, improvisation, theory, ear training and more complex songs. Influences include the Beatles, Led Zepplin, Chet Atkins, George Van Eps, Earth Wind and Fire, and many others. My guitar lessons take place in: The 520 Eight Avenue, NYC, or the student's home.
