Lessons
Good day,
I am presently looking for beginning to intermediate
students who have an avid-and-sincere interest in studying the guitar.
About me...
I am a semi-retired
individual, whom has a passionate interest in passing on to others what
I have been able to glean over the years in both the pedagogical, the
technical, and the performance aspects of the guitar.
I have over
40 years experience - in both the "professional" and the "tutoring"
capacity, and have written an 1000+ guitar instruction manual entitled "The
Procedural|Linear Approach to Learning the Guitar". I have also
scored over 2000+ arrangements for the guitar in solo, duet and
"music-minus-one" formats.
Having also been involved
professionally as the sole proprietor of a local computer servicing
facility since the mid 90's, I also have experience working with
"digital audio" such as...
– MIDI, Digital Audio Workstations,
Mixer-in-a-box, and Guitar Amplifier Simulation|Modeling.
• Note: As
a "computer consultant", I have written over 800+ technical articles
covering a wide-rang of topics. With
regards to digital audio, I have
written well over 3000 documents covering all aspects of the guitar as
it would pertain to
digital audio and PC-based systems.
About the lessons...
The lessons provided are 1)
private only, 2) in-studio only, and 3) instructor-led only, guitar
instruction with the studio located in central Maple Ridge.
• A
criminal record check is available if so desired.
About lesson fees....
The lessons will be provided
on "pay-per-person" basis.
• "Pay-per-person" is the
means by which - after discussion with the perspective student, an
hourly fee would then be
determined.
Lesson Fees
versus Lesson Content
Though the lessons are indeed "Free",
the actual lesson content is not!.
Lesson content is any lesson material, supplementary material and/or
information that is provided in a written format.
• Such material will be made
available on
a cost-per-page basis.
For example, the following are the costs
associated with such lesson content:
• 1-10 pages: .25 per page
• 11-20 pages: .15 per page
• 21-30 pages: .10 per page
Note:
The above costs do not include the actual
printing costs - of which would therefore,
be entirely covered by you.
The only note-worthy and
important considerations are...
1) which was previously
stated, to "...have an avid-and-sincere
interest in studying the guitar",
2) that the perspective
student understands what is meant by "instructor-led
only", and
3) that the minimum age requirement is 12
years of age.
Thus, it is imperative, that perspective students understand what
the terms, "avid", "sincere", "study" and "instructor-led only"
really-and-truly mean in the context of the guitar and its music.
In closing...

In closing, I would like to thank you for both your time and
attention to the above.

touches a heart."
