PRIVATE GUITAR CLASSES, 100% ONLINE

HOW DO MY BRAZILIAN GUITAR LESSONS WORK?
My name is André Martins and I've been a professional musician for over 27 years, graduate in guitar at LACM (Los Angeles College of Music) and PhD in Music and Improvisation by the University of São Paulo.
I teach private and customized acoustic and electric guitar lessons, with my own didactic material and attendance every week or every 2 weeks.
The classes and courses are 100% online, with HD video and stereo audio, with very low latency and screen divided equally between teacher and student, allowing the class to run with absolute technical quality and interactivity. Besides allowing the student to either record the whole class or small excerpts of it, always at their choice, it also offers a digital whiteboard for explanations, file sharing and individual chat, which can also be saved individually, class by class.
Private classes 100% online, just 1 student and me, through the ZOOM platform and with student support via WhatsApp, Telegram and/or e-mail.
I am one of the precursor musicians in teaching guitar and custom online guitar, since 2012, preparing dozens of students for music schools in Brazil and abroad. Currently, some of my students are from all over Brazil, USA, Germany, Mexico, France and Japan.
Learn how to play Brazilian music, acoustic guitar and electric guitar with me. Just drop me an e-mail, and I'll get back to you personally very soon. No automatic answers.

Testimonials

Eduardo Medeiros, Ciudad de Mexico, Mexico.
"I have lived in Mexico for 7 years and have studied guitar for 23 years. I always wanted to learn from great guitar masters and when I arrived in Mexico I missed the cultural richness of Brazilian music. When I saw a post on André Martins Instagram about Skype lessons in 2014, it motivated me to come back and learn from one of the instrument's masters nationwide. In addition to learning and technical improvement, I had direct contact with the musical culture of my native country. Today, after 6 years of study, I have so much more knowledge and feel like a more complete musician".

Carol Summers, Boston, USA.
“André helped me bring my music abilities to a new level. He encouraged me to be creative with my music on a daily basis. He not only help me flourish on my technical skills but he also helped me be unique with my music. His classes are interesting and very motivational.”

Giovanni Paolo Pilosio, Italy.
"Taking classes with Andre really was very important in my musical formation. The individually method that he applies was fundamental for me. With that I was able to verify several points that I needed (and need) to improv. Besides that, he has an unique approach towards the music, as a whole, with is extremely important to the musical evolution. Strongly recommended!"
