Key
Benefits
You can benefit from:
- The main philosophy of the tuition which is about passing the understanding of how to play and approach music. This helps the students to achieve more over time
- Private tuition which greatly enhances the student's progress (this greatly affects the speed of learning as well as the amount of information that someone can absorb in a given time)
- No 'group tuition' issues.
- All students get the same level of attention from the instructor
- Tuition is focused on each student's way of learning (something that is impossible in a group situation)
- Learn at your own pace
- Use of professional studio equipment during the lessons
- Use of backing tracks
- Learning in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.
