About Sophie

My passion for jazz guitar is deeply rooted in its rich history, expressive freedom, and limitless creativity. With over 5 years of experience as a tutor, I am dedicated to sharing this passion and guiding students through their own musical journeys.

I find immense joy in helping others discover the nuances of jazz guitar whether it's exploring the intricate harmonies of standards, unlocking the secrets of improvisation, or delving into the complexities of music theory. Each session is an opportunity to ignite curiosity and foster a deeper appreciation for the artistry behind jazz guitar.

As a lifelong learner myself, I understand the challenges and rewards of mastering an instrument. My approach combines structured learning with flexibility, tailored to each student's goals and learning style. I aim to create a supportive environment where creativity flourishes, technical skills are honed, and musical expression is cultivated.

Beyond teaching technique and theory, I am passionate about nurturing a love for jazz guitar as a form of personal expression and connection. I believe in the transformative power of music to inspire, uplift, and enrich lives. Together, let's explore the world of jazz guitar, unlock your potential, and embark on a fulfilling musical journey.

With over 5 years of experience as a dedicated tutor, I am passionate about helping you elevate your skills in this vibrant musical genre.

My lessons are crafted to cater to your individual aspirations and level of proficiency. Whether you're a beginner eager to learn the basics or an advanced player looking to refine your technique and expand your repertoire, we will cover all facets of jazz guitar mastery.

We'll start by diving into essential techniques, including chord voicings, scales, and rhythmic patterns essential to jazz. Through structured exercises and hands-on practice, you'll develop a solid foundation in improvisation, enabling you to express yourself creatively and fluently on the guitar.

In addition to technique, we'll explore the theoretical underpinnings of jazz music, from harmonic progressions to melodic development. You'll gain a deeper understanding of music theory concepts and how they apply specifically to jazz guitar, empowering you to analyze, interpret, and compose music with confidence.

Ear training will also be a cornerstone of our lessons, as we work on recognizing chords, scales, and melodies by ear. This skill is crucial for improvisation and playing with others, enhancing your ability to respond intuitively and dynamically in musical settings.

Moreover, we'll delve into composition and beat-making techniques tailored to jazz guitar, exploring how to craft compelling melodies, harmonies, and rhythmic structures that reflect your unique musical voice.

Above all, my goal as your tutor is to inspire a lifelong passion for jazz guitar and equip you with the tools and knowledge to continue growing independently. Together, we'll celebrate your progress and unlock new levels of musical expression.
