Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Hello! My name is Tim Marco, I’m a guitar teacher, session musician and artist from the bay area CA. I'm offering in person and zoom guitar, bass and ukulele lessons. I studied guitar performance and music theory at the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance in London and have been teaching/playing professionally for over twelve years. I really love to show students tricks and techniques that help them sound their best. I teach all ages, skill levels and most styles of music. Besides showing my students new songs/scales/techniques i also believe in giving them the tools to continue learning on their own. This is vital in todays world where you can find many guitar lessons on youtube but almost no guidance or direction which is required to apply the skills and make progress. For more intermediate/advanced students I specialize in Rock, R&B, Funk, Blues, neo-soul and Jazz so we can really dive into those styles. I make sure that my guitar lessons are fun and informative that hopefully bring a new energy to your music! Rates: 30 min - $45 45 min - $55 60min - $65

Tim has been an incredible guitar teacher. He is very patient and takes the time to answer all of my questions and work slowly with me as I’m new to guitar. After just a few lessons I’m already learning a couple of songs and have gained such a love for playing. He’s very talented and a wonderful person to learn from!

The best teacher ever! I only had 30 minutes with him and I learned multiple songs. He explains things so clearly it makes picking up a guitar a little bit less daunting as a beginner!
