Professional, international performing classical guitarist teaching online for beginner and intermediate musicians.
Methodology
I approach my students as developing musicians. My teaching method is catered to the individual needs of each student while using some core method books such as Everybody's Classical Guitar, Sor Studies, and Pumping Nylon. I share what I have learned on my guitar/music journey so my students may also develop skill on the guitar and music in general.
I also include instruction on nail care for achieving great tone on the classical guitar.
Background
I am a classical guitarist with a Bachelor of Music - Performance from the Stetson University School of Music. I have been playing classical guitar for 13 years and been teaching private lessons for 4 years. I have taught students from ages 5 to 65 years. I have studied with and performed in masterclasses for top classical guitarists: Dr. Stephen Robinson, Antigoni Goni, Julian Gray, David Russell, Jason Vieaux, Irina Kulikova, Judicael Perroy, Berta Rojas, Laura Snowden, Rene Izquierdo, Amadeus Duo, and the Kithara Duo.

Lauren is a caring, loving, gentle, selfless, responsible, sweetheart of a human being.
We met at Stetson university, where she was a music student.
She strives to not only be the best version of herself, but to help others become the best version of themselves.
She approaches her craft with passion, humility, and elegance.
She is good with all ages and Her passion is just contagious.
She has a well rounded understanding of music, is professional And so talented. I would recommend this woman to the queen of England! Thank You Lauren for your desire to share your passion with others.
When my guitar teacher at Stetson University Community School of Music graduated; he wisely recommended I continue lessons with Lauren. Her ability to explain and demonstrate technique has helped me build guitar skills. Her teaching style contributes to my enthusiasm for learning, practicing, and performing.
As a mother of many musically talented kids, the most important thing apart from picking a talented teacher is above all else , that the Teacher teaching your children is a good role model for them. Lauren is an incredibly talented young lady who is not just Beautiful in the outside but beautiful in the inside ... her passion for music will inspire your children to want to keep learning & most of all she is incredibly patient. The importance of a good role model should not be overlooked, because it will be a relationship built between your child potentially for many years to come .
I met Lauren at the 2018 edition of the Volterra Project. I soon realized she is a dedicated and talented artist with a subtle and profound musicality. I recommend her strongly.
I met Lauren in the Summer of 2018 during an international workshop in guitar: The Volterra Project. She is an amazing guitarist and was one of the chosen among many other applicants around the world. She has a great grasp and unique sense of music, fluent technique, outstanding music education and ability. I highly recommend taking lessons with Lauren! You will learn a lot from her!
