About Rafe

I am a passionate guitar tutor with 9 years of teaching experience and a bachelor’s degree in music. My journey with the guitar has been both personal and professional, allowing me to blend technical expertise with a deep love for musical expression. Teaching gives me the opportunity to share this passion and help others discover their own unique sound. Over the years, I have worked with students of all ages and abilities, from complete beginners to advanced players looking to refine their skills. I believe that every student learns differently, so I tailor my lessons to fit individual goals and learning styles, creating a supportive and motivating environment. My specialties include rhythm techniques, solo improvisation, and music theory, which together build a comprehensive approach to guitar playing. I focus on helping students develop both technical proficiency and creativity, encouraging them to explore and enjoy their musical journey. Continuous learning and professional growth are important to me. I stay updated with new teaching methods and musical trends to provide engaging, effective lessons. For me, tutoring is not just about technique, but about inspiring confidence, creativity, and a lifelong love of music.

About the lesson

Guitar lessons are designed to accommodate players of all skill levels, from beginners eager to learn the basics to more advanced students seeking to expand their musical vocabulary. Each session combines technical exercises with song practice, ensuring that students develop both skill and musicality. Emphasis is placed on rhythm techniques, helping learners build a solid groove and timing.

Improvisation is a key focus, encouraging creativity and personal expression. Through scale work, phrasing, and solo-building exercises, students gain the tools to craft their own solos and understand the language of music. This hands-on approach makes learning both exciting and deeply rewarding.

Music theory is integrated into lessons to provide a strong conceptual foundation. Understanding chord construction, progressions, and key signatures helps students make sense of the music they play and opens up opportunities for composition and advanced improvisation.

Lessons are personalized to meet each student’s goals, whether it’s preparing for performances, learning favorite songs, or simply improving technique. I provide consistent feedback, practice strategies, and encouragement to ensure steady progress and a fulfilling learning experience.
