About Ariana
I have over 10 years of experience teaching guitar and hold a Graduate Certificate in Advanced Guitar Studies. I enjoy helping students train their ears because it makes them stronger and more independent musicians. Watching someone recognize a melody without looking at music is always rewarding.
In my lessons, I teach students how to transcribe solos by listening carefully and breaking them into small sections. We also practice identifying chord progressions by ear using songs they already know. This makes learning feel natural and useful.
I include exercises that improve pitch recognition and listening accuracy every week. Some students begin by finding simple notes, and over time they recognize full musical phrases with confidence. Those small improvements always lead to bigger musical growth.
I also guide students who want to develop stronger pitch memory through fun and practical activities. We celebrate every improvement because each one brings them closer to becoming a confident guitarist. My goal is to make every lesson enjoyable, challenging, and inspiring while helping students trust their ears and enjoy making music.

My guitar lessons focus on helping students become confident and expressive lead players. I teach lead guitar soloing through simple steps that build both skill and creativity. We work on improvisation, phrasing techniques, and musical storytelling from the beginning.
I also cover blues and rock bends, vibrato, scales, fretboard knowledge, alternate picking, and solo construction. Every lesson includes practical exercises that improve speed, accuracy, and control. I once helped a student create their first guitar solo after breaking it into small musical ideas.
I enjoy working with learners who love exploring jazz styles and those who want to play energetic rock music with confidence. I encourage them to discover their own soloing style instead of copying others. This helps them become more creative and comfortable during performances.
I provide focused practice routines that strengthen timing, expression, and technical mastery. Each session builds confidence one step at a time. Before long, you will be shredding with confidence while enjoying every part of the learning journey.
