Lessons
Pawel is a professional musician with over 15 years experience and would love to help you make your musical dreams a reality! His philosophy is that, "learning an instrument needs to be enjoyable and a process that grows your passion for music." Musicians that are passionate about what they do want to get better and cannot seem to put their instrument down as they are constantly discovering something new. That is what I want for you! You will never be asked to do mindless exercises or to learn every chord in the book before you actually start making music. Each musical experience will build on itself to help you become a confident and versatile player. It's important for me to pick music that you like and relate to. I will help you play the music you love and, before you know it, you will be playing your favorite songs. You'll retain more chords and skills working this way and will soon be able to move onto more advanced concepts. Whatever your current experience with the instrument may be, Pawel will get you to the next level! Lessons available for beginners, intermediate and advanced players.
