Justin Martinez
Arroyo Grande, CA

Professional Musician and Educator - Guitar, Ukulele, Mandolin

Guitar has been a lifelong passion and learning process of mine since my early teen years. I pursued musical opportunities on guitar throughout middle school, high school and into college. After receiving my B.A. in Music in 2006, I have continued studying and teaching guitar and performing professionally. My musical journey has ranged from rock/classic rock, jazz, classical, world music, Blues, and bluegrass. I show all students how to express their natural musical ability through the guitar. My various teaching experience has shown me what works and what doesn't in lessons, and it has allowed me to effectively teach a wide variety of styles and people.

Matthew Anderson
Santa Monica, CA

Mechanical Engineering Graduate UCLA 2024

Music has always been one of my striking talents. When I first picked up my own classical Yamaha guitar, I didn't know what to expect. Although I have been learning how to play the piano for years, it just felt different from a string instrument. As I learned the basics on my own, I began to find great interest. Although the guitar is a relatively difficult instrument, I truly enjoyed the sound and how you can produce any kind of piece with it. As I continued to enroll in my school guitar class, I was often complimented as being a quick learner and excelling in the guitar especially playing fingerstyle, which is a method of playing both the melody and the bass in the guitar. I soon began to explore other guitars, and I found that the acoustic guitar was suitable for me. I often joined bands in my church as the main guitarist, and I occasionally taught students in my class. A great moment was when I was chosen to perform in front of my whole high school, where I played a duet as the fingerstyle with my friend being the accompaniment. In the future, I hope to use my talents to good use and hopefully teach more students in the future.

Some of my current students are adults that play at an advanced, show-ready level and require tutelage in many different styles, including Jazz, Funk, Folk, Rock, and City Pop. I work closely with them on developing advanced playing techniques such as tremolo picking, hybrid picking, arpeggio sweeps, and improvisation. All of my students started out as complete beginners, and after two or three years, ended up playing at an advanced level.

Matt Orenstein
Los Angeles, CA

Ex-record clerk with a music degree, working bassist and guitarist

I’ve been playing guitar since I was ten years old. Guitar started off as a secondary instrument for me – I was primarily a pianist as a kid, and have been primarily a bassist since I was a teenager – but much of what I’ve learned from other instruments I’ve been able to translate to the guitar. My skill set is primarily as a rhythm guitarist; I can help you learn how to be a great complimentary player, whether it’s for singing by yourself, or as part of a full band.

Bahuslau Tsyhankou
Los Angeles, CA

Singer-songwriter, will share his 10 years guitar experience both in-person and online!

I'm here to help you become a better musician - whether you're just picking up an instrument or want to improve your range of existing skills like improvising, songwriting, understanding rhythm or, perhaps, just wanna learn your favorite songs! Of course, my teaching methods will depend on your individual preferences: your style, your goals, your level, etc. One thing I know for sure - I don't want to be a strict snobby tutor that makes you memorize the entire theory. I will try to be as practical as possible and teach you those things that are really used and needed in music so you can start playing your favorite songs as soon as possible! And I know that sometimes it's simply essential to have a person who can just give smart advice, share some personal experience or, sometimes, just listen to you play! Plus, I believe that with the internet most of the things can be learned today for free - that's why I would focus on those subtle details of playing the guitar that you can't get from YouTube videos or online articles. And, of course, I would like to become somewhat of a friend for you that can help you out with any of your daily guitar questions and with whom, eventually, you could have a cozy jam session:]
