I've had a few guitar teachers through the years but no one like Nico!
He completely changed my way to view the guitar neck, making things really easier to play.
I was already an experienced guitarist at the time, and even though his great knowledge and easy way to explain things have really made the difference to me!

I met Nico in university. Very easy to get along with, Nico is eager to share what he knows. An experienced musician, with hours upon hours of playing live and teaching, both presentially and online, he will always go the extra-mile to get his student's all the means and resources to hone their musicianship. Highly recommend!

Nico is the best music teacher you can ever have. He not only teaches us how to play the guitar, but he also teaches us to actively reflect upon matters of musicality, art and life. He's got impressive musical skills and didactics.
