About Gaetano
Gaetano (Tom) Letizia is a 30 year veteran performer and teacher playing all over the USA. Tom loves helping students of all ages learn to play and have fun on guitar in all musical styles.
"I concentrate on music fundamentals that help students play guitar for a lifetime and not just a few chords but an understanding of any song they like."
Students learn to read music and not just tab. We also work on timing and feel so that the student can make songs feel right. The process takes 2-3 years and then the students can actually play really well and not just have a guitar sitting in the corner they only know a few licks on.
My only requirement is 15 minutes practice every day with no excuses and you'll be able to play really well. Many of my students play in bands and do open mics and jam sessions. They're having fun.
Lastly if you want a serious teacher with the highest credentials who can really get you there, call me!
Toured nationally with rock, jazz and blues bands for 30 years. Recorded 12 solo CDs. Music played on blues and jazz stations internationally. Reviewed in Down Beat and Guitar Player magazines.Studied jazz and blues guitar with internationally reknown guitarists for over 30 years. Classical guitar major n college. Currently performing and touring.
Still humble and easy to take lessons with for the everyday guitar Student.

About the lesson
- All Levels
- English
All languages in which the lesson is available :
English
The first lesson is free and we sit down to talk about the student's interests. I show them the process of learning music fundamentals tailored to their interests. For example, if the student loves fingerstyle acoustic music, we aim everything that way.
All musical styles have the basics in common and we work on those basics like rhythm, chords, soloing and playing while singing.
I concentrate on getting students to actually play simple songs in the first few weeks and then add more techniques and knowledge each week.

He is excellent at explaining things and helping me to work through tough concepts. Makes it fun but also challenges me. He is the best!!!
Tom is great at demonstrating what to do with our daughter, Izzy. He is very encouraging and exposes her to many different genres of music. In a supportive way, he pushes her to keep growing as a musician. We are grateful he can inspire her - Thanks!
