Homeschoolers have a unique learning opportunity.
If you are a home schooling family or organization
seeking private or semi-private music instruction,
I offer guitar lessons and/or music theory classes
during school hours as well as during the evening.

My original, effective guitar method
incorporates all aspects of music education.
My students learn to read and write music,
they learn the applicable amount of music
theory for what they are learning to play.
They compose, transpose and work on
ear training, students can eventually play
and write any melody that is familiar.
When they are sufficiently advanced,
they will likewise learn to hear,
recognize and play harmonic music
with which they are familiar.

For home schoolers who already play an
instrument but have not learned music theory,
I offer a music theory class to assist in
making their music education complete.

I possess decades of experience instructing
beginners through advanced players as well as
assisting my students with audition preparation.
My students are youth, adults and gifted children
who are musically inclined.
This is an opportunity to learn to play guitar
from a highly experienced, effective instructor.

I developed this site and my original and
effective approach to teaching guitar
as a result of being NY metro area
professional guitarist with decades
of experience training people
who "play the guitar”
to become
“musicians whose instrument is the guitar."

Don't let the words
"Technique" or "Tutor" scare you.

(The domain names I wanted were all taken
so GuitarTechniqueTutor.Com was
the best I could do to suggest superior
and effective guitar instruction.)

Real musicianship among guitarists is rare.
The purpose of this web site is to offer
beginner guitarists, the most comprehensive
instruction available to them in
the Bergen & Rockland County area
and bring beginner, intermediate and
advanced guitarists to the highest level
of playing they can achieve.

If you want to really learn to play the guitar
or are already a disciplined guitarist
and want to revolutionize your technique,
strength, endurance, understanding
and your performance skills,
this web site offers you the mean
s to contact a competent instructor,
who can help you play better by training you:
to make your practice time its most effective,
to prepare your music and yourself for
auditions and other performances,
to use correct form,
to master guitar technique,
to develop speed and endurance,
fretboard knowledge,
to understand musical scores
and compositions
and to approach ear training and
sight reading so you get results.

GuitarTechniqueTutor.Com offers every guitarist
advice in all aspects of the guitarist's development
and if my schedule permits,
private instruction in Airmont, Allendale,
Fair Lawn, Glen Rock, Hawthorne, Hillburn,
Ho-Ho-Kus, Midland Park,Montebello,
Montvale, New Milford, Oakland, Oradell,
Paramus, Park Ridge, Ridgewood, River Edge,
Saddle River, Suffern, Tallman, Teaneck,
Upper Saddle River, Waldwick,
Washington Township,Westwood,
Woodcliff Lake, Wyckoff
and their immediate surroundings.

The truth is, if you lack coordination and
strengthand do not have broad knowledge
and full understanding of what
you’re doing with your guitar,
you will not progress as a musician;
instead, you will develop inconsistency
and become complacent or frustrated
with your state of musical stagnation.
