About Rivu
I’m a guitarist with over a decade of playing experience, driven by a deep interest in understanding music beyond just shapes and patterns. I’m currently studying guitar and musicianship under the mentorship of the legendary guitarist Amyt Dutta, which has strongly shaped my approach to musicality, phrasing, and thoughtful playing.
I enjoy working with learners who are curious about why music works the way it does and who value steady, mindful progress over shortcuts. Teaching, for me, is about sharing clarity, building confidence, and helping students develop their own musical voice through consistent practice and understanding.

My guitar classes focus on helping students develop musical understanding, not just finger movements. Lessons are structured based on your level and goals, with an emphasis on musicality, rhythm, and practical application.
Beginners start by building strong fundamentals such as technique, chords, timing, and basic music theory, so they can play songs with confidence and clarity.
For intermediate players, lessons focus on applied music theory, improvisation, fretboard understanding, and developing a more expressive playing style.
Concepts are often explored using a mix of blues, alternative rock, and Indian, Bollywood, and Bengali musical contexts, making learning both relatable and musically grounded.

I’ve had the chance to learn guitar under Rivu, and honestly, it’s been a great experience from day one. I got to know him from a tech community, and over time he’s been more like a mentor who genuinely cares about your progress.
What I appreciate the most about his teaching style is how he simplifies things. He doesn’t just teach songs, he focuses on building a strong foundation, technique, and the Music
. His way of breaking down complex parts into easy, manageable steps really helped me improve faster than I expected. He also keeps the sessions very practical and engaging, which makes you actually look forward to practicing.
One thing that really stands out is how patient and supportive he is. I remember struggling with chord transitions and rhythm at one point, and instead of rushing through, he worked with me step by step until I got comfortable. That level of dedication makes a big difference.
If you’re someone who wants to genuinely learn guitar and not just memorize a few songs, I would highly recommend Rivu. He knows how to guide you at your own pace while still pushing you to improve consistently.He's fabulous with his guitar playing. Moreover, he can play Bengali songs and Rabindra Sangeet, which is a plus for me.
I have learned a lot from Rivu; he has a strong understanding of guitar and music theory.
