Joy is wonderful! I leave every lesson with concrete goals, and every week new things go from seemingly impossible to manageable. No matter how frustrated I feel practicing on my own, my lessons with Joy make me feel encouraged again and I see tangible progress.

Why did you become a guitar teacher?

In general, I like to share things with my friends. Moreover, I like to do, share things. I also teach music with great passion, so I always learn new things again. Because I have to solve it before I can explain it to someone else.

Sometimes, when I had my own bottleneck that I couldn't break through, it often helped me to teach students, allowing me to play it better myself. I also went down many "wrong" roads myself, which took me unnecessarily more time. For that reason, I've always thought that if I could have let someone else tell me this, life would be much easier.

Describe yourself as a musician.

I am a jazz guitarist. After so many years of playing music and practicing instruments, I started to realize how important it is to be able to play what I can actually hear. It was years ago, I always sang what I played. But I didn't know I couldn't play what I sang. I started to notice that when I had no instruments with me, I couldn't sing music in my head. I had nothing in mind; I couldn't even talk about changes after learning jazz for 4-5 years. That's why I started to change my priorities to put singing first. In the end, it had changed my life and my game, making most of the problems I had resolve themselves.

And more importantly, I started to appreciate more of what I played when I listened to my recordings, which I never could have done. As a result, my first vision of playing music is to be honest in music.In addition, my greatest passion is Brazilian music. Brazilian music and the community have completely changed my life. My biggest influence is Baden Powell.

How has it changed you?

It's just too much to say how this music has changed me. I think in an artistic aspect, and I will say because of that, I started playing with the persona more and more. It may not be easy to apply to jazz standards. But when I play my own compositions, other compositions, or some appropriate songs, I like to try out different things in the songs with the musicians I play with.

Gitaarles

In this guitar class, we will focus on building your: Guitar techniques, rhythm, improvisation, music theory, and mentality are all important aspects of making music.

The direction of the lesson depends on each individual. A tailor-made course is what you will find in these lessons. 

However, according to my experience, I conclude that a better strategy is needed for my students to improve.

What I do is, every 2 weeks, I will propose a specific topic or assignment that I think the student needs. The remaining lessons could involve students proposing what they want to learn in order to keep their passion alive. because passion can bring improvement.
