*DUE TO THE CURRENT COVID-19 SITUATION I WILL BE ACCEPTING WEBCAM LESSONS ONLY. In-person lessons will become available again once everything returns to normal.*
The music I teach on guitar (acoustic and electric), includes pop, rock, blues, indie, folk and fingerstyle. I create lessons based on what genres and styles my students want to learn, while incorporating all the skills essential to playing the guitar.
My methodology is student focused, and my students' interests, skills, and strengths shape my individualized lesson plans. We will learn the songs and techniques that a student wants to learn, though along a route that also includes the skills and knowledge (ear training, theory, various chords and playing styles) needed to be be a well rounded guitar player and musician.
Most importantly I believe in lessons that are friendly, fun, and respectful, and where both teacher and student can enjoy the joys of music, while consistantly working towards set goals.
*I have several new openings, and am currently accepting new students at my home again.
I am a seasoned guitar player having played for over 10 year and have volunteered as a guitar instructor at several youth organizations as well as teaching professionally.
I have completed the Level 9 certification in Classical Piano and Theory from the Royal Conservatory of Music (hoping to start piano lessons by the end of the year too!) and have a ton of experience playing small live acoustic shows around Toronto ranging from small private events to coffee houses to street festival busking.
I also have nearly a decade of experience working with youth, having worked with children and teens of all ages through several organizations.

I would highly recommend Arthur if you are interested in music lessons (adults and children alike)!

I've known Arthur for a long time. I've always wanted to learn the guitar growing up and he was always eager and dedicated to help me out. He taught me how to play and understand the guitar in ways I couldn't find online in places like youtube and so on. Also, his style of teaching helped me find ways to get through my frustrations of learning it haha. I would definitely recommend!
