Private Lessons

Eve teaches guitar lessons in the east end of Toronto (she also teaches long-distance private lessons). Lessons are 45 minutes long. Most students come weekly, but some come every other week. Eve’s background is in folk, country, and blues styles, and she teaches absolute beginners up to intermediate students. Her approach is based on using songs to learn the skills you need to enjoy playing.

I look forward to every lesson... Eve teaches you what you want to learn in a low-pressure, relaxed atmosphere.

Eve believes strongly that everyone can make music and that everyone can improve their music skills. In her teaching she strives to create a supportive environment where students can increase their skill level and have fun at the same time. She loves the teaching process and finds that she learns as much as her students.

In addition to guitar, she also sometimes teaches lessons in songwriting, performance, and singing.

Some different techniques and skills Eve focuses on:

• bass notes and bass runs
• basic country strumming
• Carter-Family style strumming
• basic fingerpicking styles
• fingerstyle blues
• arranging songs
• reading tablature
• basic theory for folk guitar
• how to figure out the chords for the song you want to sing
• singing and playing at the same time
• and more...
