“JJ is awesome. I am a beginner transitioning to intermediate guitarist and in a few short lessons he really transformed my approach to the guitar and gave me invaluable tips as well as taught me a bunch of songs. He is a master guitarist and musician, evident from the way he deconstructs songs in seconds, and is a very good teacher who will really focus on your particular areas that need improvement. His teaching style is patient and fun. Also he has a really cute dog, Mack, that sits in on lessons! i really enjoyed my time working with him and plan on continuing to learn from him in the future”

“I’ve been playing guitar for a number of years, and working my way through tab after tab. The first session I had with Jean-Jacques completely changed my view and appreciation of music and music structure! We went right back to basics and rebuilt my approach to the guitar from the ground up in a way that included aspects of culture, of history, of music theory in practice and then applying to my music and playlists.

His flexible and student centric approach to learning is commendable! I couldn't recommend learning with Jean-Jacques enough!”

— James Lancaster

“Jean-Jacques is the best guitar teacher you will ever have. He teaches so that you have fun and play what you like, at your own pace, with a good balance between theory and practice, with a dose of culture and history of music... I have learned more in the last 6 months with him than in the other past 10 years by myself. He speaks perfect Spanish :).”

FAQs

  • No, I have guitars you can use .

  • No, we don’t read notes. Unless it’s something you really want to do. If that’s the case we can use a method I’ve developed to learn how to sight read.

  • Not at all. In fact, I prefer absolute beginners as it gives me more control over the student’s musical trajectory.

  • It depends. I usually get students playing from day one. After half a year he/she/they will be able to start playing along with certain pop songs.

  • I do. In fact, it’s my first instrument. And I grew up playing metal (Gen x) . It was only after high school that I started with jazz and classical music.

  • I do, up to a point. I've played piano pretty intensely at various points in my life. I studied privately with Wim Statius Muller who studied at Julliard. I don't always keep it up though because of other commitments. So advanced students should seek better qualified tutors. But for beginners up to intermediate levels, yes I do definitely teach piano.

  • I'm from Curaçao, a Dutch island in the Caribbean where Dutch is the official school language. So yes, I had it in school and speak it fluently.
