About Nora
During lockdown, I was teaching in an international US-based online guitar school, working with students from Berklee as well as students based in NYC. I began studying jazz guitar officially in 2003 and have expanded my knowledge and experience over the years since then. I have been playing and teaching for 25+ years. I will never stop learning; I am very passionate about learning and improving until this day. I am also a gigging musician, and a lot of my experience comes from playing with other musicians as well as studying books and records. School can only teach you so much. I also used to run a jazz jam weekly for four years in London. I used to do workshops and masterclasses as a mentor/lecturer in Latvian guitar week before I moved to London 15 years ago. I also have some experience in flamenco and fingerstyle guitar.

I create a structured, personalised lesson plan according to the students' needs and wants. We define weak points in your playing, and I then create a structured plan. Some students choose the option to also receive additional video feedback. Especially if lessons are on Zoom, chord melody arranging is often implemented, especially if the student wants and needs to expand their chord voicing vocabulary and theoretical knowledge. I of course include Jazz theory, a few improvisation methods and approaches, yet focusing on one at the time, as well as transcribing and analysing music.

I’ve been taking guitar lessons with Nora for nearly a year, and it’s been amazing! Lessons are fun, easy to follow. She is patient, encouraging, and knows how to make learning guitar enjoyable. Also, I was able to pick songs I wanted to learn!
I have been studying with Nora for 3 years now. She teachers in very enjoyable way! And always sends me lesson summary emails. It's super helpful to track my progress. She also helps me understand how music and guitar works. I can now improvise simple melodic solos. She also answers all my questions. She is not only a teacher but also a mentor. I'm always trying to practice more to make her proud!
My son has been having lessons with Nora for about a year and it's been so helpful for him. I've noticed him practicing more since having these lessons with Nora and he seems inspired and encouraged, and always looks forward to her lessons. He passed his first exam with distinction which I was thrilled about! I would highly recommend.
I had lessons with Nora for 4 years. She is amazing! Very patient and inspirational! Lessons are structured, exactly what I wanted and was searching for, yet she is always leaving the space for creativity and fun things, as well as my questions or my current musical events and preparations! I couldn't wish for a better teacher! I was still beginner when I started studying with her. She always adapted to what my situation was. My goals adapted over years, she adapted as well! It's been great!
