Nylon-String Guitar Lessons

---

These lessons are semi-structured and goal-driven, designed to help you develop solid fingerstyle technique, strong timing, and real musical understanding, while still focusing on the songs and styles you actually want to play.

Lessons focus on right-hand finger independence (thumb + fingers), coordination, control, and clean fretting, along with rhythm, flow, and musical phrasing. I use screen sharing, Guitar Pro, PDFs, and clear visual breakdowns to make everything easy to follow, including tabs, fingerings, rhythms, practice routines, and entire songs. Each lesson adapts to your goals, pace, and experience level.

Each lesson is 40 minutes, taught live over Zoom.

These lessons are suitable for kids, teens, and adults, whether you’re completely new to fingerstyle or transitioning from pick-based playing. Teaching is structured, patient, and flexible, with an emphasis on steady progress and musical confidence.
