About Catherine
I am a guitar tutor with 4 years of teaching experience and a Bachelor of Arts in Music Theory with Guitar Specialization. My lessons emphasize musicianship, guitar technique, and audio production skills. I teach music production fundamentals, home recording, and audio engineering for guitarists. Students learn tone shaping, effects pedal programming, microphone placement, and basic mixing. I have worked with Early Intermediate, Advanced Intermediate, and professional session players. Lessons are tailored to students’ goals, whether performing, composing, or producing music. I focus on creativity, experimentation, and capturing high-quality guitar tones. Exercises include recording, editing, and experimenting with effects to achieve professional results. Students gain confidence in both performance and production skills. My approach combines hands-on practice with practical theory for a complete musical experience. Lessons are engaging, motivating, and inspiring. Together, we refine your sound and capture your artistic vision.

My teaching emphasizes fluency in reading guitar music, both tablature and standard notation. I include rhythm exercises, sight-reading drills, and practical reading for solo and ensemble performance. Lessons follow a systematic approach to gradually increase complexity and build confidence. Students learn to recognize note patterns, interpret rhythms, and connect written music to the instrument. I adapt lessons to individual goals, whether classical repertoire, jazz improvisation, or contemporary music. Hands-on exercises reinforce reading, phrasing, and musical structure. Students develop memorization strategies and an intuitive understanding of notation. I encourage patience, focus, and daily practice to solidify skills. Lessons balance technical reading with expressive performance. Students gain fluency in sight-reading that translates to confidence in playing any piece. I provide practical tips and exercises to make music reading natural and effective. Together, we unlock written music, creating skilled, independent guitarists capable of reading any style.
