About Andre
I perform original music and sideman with some of the best musicians in Los Angeles. I have a BM jazz studies degree from USC. I also produce for other jazz musicians and make avant-garde electronic music. I've been playing guitar for 18 years and usually play 3-4 shows a week.

I like to start with learning tunes that the student wants to learn or I can offer suggestions. Through songs we can build technique and learn fundamentals such as chords and single note melodies. Then, we can start to analyze chord progressions and start composing/songwriting. We can also learn and analyze solos and start learning how to improvise. This can be done in any canon of music but I typically start with classic rock moving to jazz or the area of students' interest. I place a lot of importance on original music and try to get the student writing as soon as possible. However, if the goal is to learn songs and have fun that's great too.

Perfect! Super talented and a great teacher and full of patience and enthusiasm
Perfect! Andre is incredibly talented and knowledgeable. He helps me understand the fundamentals and why things are the way they are. He is friendly and takes the time to thoroughly try to explain hard concepts. He understands your weaknesses and helps you work on them. I would definitely recommend him as a guitar teacher for any skill level.

Andre has been giving me guitar lessons for almost a year now and I couldn’t be happier. I previously had a different guitar teacher but I stopped with him because we just kept learning how to play different rock and pop songs without really covering how music actually works as a whole. Andre is a whole different story. He’s taught me much more than just how to copy some guitar solo. He’s shown me the fundamental principles of chords, melodies, and songwriting and he’s helped me unlock the guitar as a way to create music of my own. He is a super passionate and articulate teacher and helps me to understand music in a way other teachers and the internet never could. Plus, he’s an amazing guitar player :)
I highly recommend Andre to anyone of any age and experience level.I met Andre while in college, and for me, Andre was essential in helping me figure out the basics. I had very little guitar experience though I knew some things about harmony, and he helped me make sure me hands were in the right place, I wasn't using too much tension, and that I understood the history of the guitar from the perspective of rock and blues. Five stars, can't recommend highly enough!
Andre has been a great guitar instructor for me. I had a lot of fear of playing the wrong notes and he is continually helping me overcome this. He has also helped double my repertoire on guitar. He is a patient teacher and is super funny
