About Louis
I have been playing guitar for 15 years. I graduated from McGill University and have been teaching since. It's been more than 5 years now. All guitar styles and music genres.
Why am I a teacher? The answer is quite simple. I want to pass along my passion for the instrument and for music in general.

Super prof
Très pédagogue et sympathique
Ses compétences de guitare sont indéniables
J'avais déjà un petit niveau à la gratte et il m'as aider à passer au niveau supérieur
Je recommande++Ma fille voulait une initiation à la guitare sur la base de morceaux de musique brésilienne. Louis a été très créatif dans son approche pédagogique. Il a même créé avec elle une mélodie avec elle ! Elle a tellement accroché qu'elle ne quitte plus sa guitare.
Louis a la musique dans son ADN et la transmet avec beaucoup d'enthousiasme et de passionLouis est un super prof! Il est à l'écoute et s'adapte à mon rythme et mes goûts musicaux. Il me motive et je suis fière des progrès que je fais avec lui. Je le recommande à tous! En plus, il est tellement sympathique!
J’ai la chance de suivre des cours de guitare avec Louis et j’en suis plus que satisfait. Je ne suis vraiment pas le plus rapide en apprentissage et louis s’est toujours montré patient et encourageant - c’est quelque chose de très important pour moi. Merci Louis :)
Louis est un prof dynamique et chaleureux. Il est attentif, présente des exercices variés et bien ciblés en fonction de notre niveau. Il est articulé dans ses explications. Il donne le goût de jouer!
C'est un prof 5 étoiles!!!Louis is the best! He is expert at developing my skills at a good pace. With these lessons as a foundation, and practice time in between, I am getting better each week. Plus it's so much fun with him! I have no hesitation recommending him.
Merci pour ta patience. Toujours au rendez-vous. Le temps passe toujours très vite car tu as toujours une astuce pour m'aider à trouver la bonne note

J’ai eu la chance d’avoir Louis en tant que prof à de nombreuses occasions, et j’ai adoré ! Il est très impliqué et soucieux de vous faire apprendre la guitare de la manière qui vous correspond le plus ! Je recommande fortement !
he’s a very good teacher, passionate and talented, you will learn a lot !!!! it's always quality time, highly recommended
Louis est un professeur investi , à l’écoute, qui avance au rythme de ses élèves avec naturel et tout ça dans la bonne humeur
Louis has been my guitar teacher for a while and I had a beautiful musical path among him. I am not someone with a lot of self-control and discipline, but Louis made me find the motivation within my core self and doing a little something every day became such a pleasure because he inspires you to do it with your heart. He is passionate about music, and is excellent at teaching! I remember a time when I was criticizing my capacity and was a bit feeling low. Louis and I had a lesson together and he reminds me that I was playing for me and to feel the rhythm in my body, not to be the best and satisfy others, I felt super confortable and boosted afterwards.
Louis est un excellent professeur de guitare. Son efficacité et sa justesse fait de lui quelqu'un de confiance.
Louis is a great guitar teacher. He is very serious about his job, and also knows how to make the lessons fun. It’s always a good time to have lessons with him!
Après peut-être 20 ans à gratouiller en rond, je me suis motivé un jour à essayer de comprendre cet instrument pour mieux jouer. J'ai alors testé des apps mais sans succès. Je me suis donc rabattu sur un prof de guitare, que j'ai choisi au plus près de mon domicile, et c'est là que j'ai eu la chance phénoménale de tomber sur Louis. C'est vraiment un pédagogue hors-pair, bien plus capable qu'un algorithme de mettre le doigt sur ce qui ne va pas dans ton jeu et de trouver des remediations efficaces. J'ai beaucoup progressé en à peine 6 mois et j'arrive aussi à voir les gros chantiers qui m'attendent mais c'est un vrai plaisir. Louis a en plus une façon bien à lui de rationaliser la "théorie de la guitare" qui permet de rendre la chose beaucoup plus digeste. Ça reste exigeant mais jamais hors de portée. Je vous le recommande chaudement. Pour ma part, je lui ai même confié ma fille de 7 ans, ravie.
Louis is my guitar teacher and I'm quite satisfied. He first listens to you in order to know about your musical project and to evaluate your level and needs. Then he explains you the way you will work and on which items. He is benevolent, he explains exercices' benefit, he relies on what you can do to make you progress. In my opinion, he's actually a good teatcher, professional and really nice ! And a good musician too ! Thanks Louis !
Hello !
For me, Louis is the best teacher.
He is helpful, patient, kind and he also has tools to help student as well.
So, having a guitar teacher as Louis is a real blessing.
I am recommanding Louis.Louis could quickly see my strengths and weaknesses, and adapt to what I needed to learn.
For me, it's great not having to practice things that I already know well, and he adapts to what I need and want.
He's flexible, and easy to work, and after a month, I'm still convinced that he's the right teacher for me!Cela fait plus d'un an que je prends des cours avec Louis. J'adore la progression que j'ai faite depuis. Il a été capable de cerner mes forces et mes faiblesses à la guitare. Il est très patient et a l'écoute. J'apprécie aussi beaucoup le matériel pédagogique qu'il offre. Je le recommande fortement !
I definitely recommend Louis. He taught me guitar during couple of hours and I have to say that I’m way better now after our lessons :)
In addition, Louis is very kind, always happy and take always time to explain.
Thank you Louis ! Hope to see you again !
CheersA talented artist who has a contagious passion for playing and a disciplined instructor who shows a lot of care about his students. He is very helpful, upbeat, patient, and positive. The time flies during our lessons. Thanks Louis, my 5-stars guitar teacher!
Louis is both a passionate musician and an incredible teacher. He is here for you and knows how to listen and adapt. He is reliable and just such a wonderful person to be around. I have never made as much progress as I have, being taught by Louis. I feel like he is one of the best teachers I've had and would highly highly recommend him :)
Louis has great skills to understand student needs and spend a lot of time to prepare each class, to customize each course to student expectations.
He is very kind, patient and highly professional. After each class I am full of confidence and excited to continue practicing and impatient to follow a new lesson with him.View more recommendations

01
When and why did you develop an interest in your chosen field?
I developed a keen interest in guitar 15 years ago when I went to Tracy Chapman's concert in Lyon, France.
I was so mesmerized by her performance and from that day, I decided to learn guitar.02
What makes you passionate about your subject?
Music is a place where the more we learn the lesser it seems we know, it's always intriguing. But most importantly, I feel like by playing the instrument we can express ourselves like no words can ever do. And that's powerful.
03
What do you like about tutoring? What makes you a "Superprof"?
Well, one of the best ways to learn something is by teaching someone else what you know. In order to always keep learning and being good at my instrument, I think teaching is the ultimate secret, and I love it. It is also a way for me to interact with a wide variety of people all passionate about the same thing. It's a work that's human, and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
04
Do you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you? Please explain.
I definitely do. Probably the biggest influence I had was my first teacher. He taught me how to learn the instrument in such a fun way… I was never bored. Also, I taught myself how to feel more confident and creative over the years, and I will always thank him for that.
05
What are your keys to success?
There are two: being curious and persistent. If you have that, you win.
