Leon is an experienced and dedicated guitar teacher.  He teaches privately and is also on faculty at Woodside Music Studios in NJ.  With a busy teaching schedule of over 40 students per week, Leon teaches a wide range of styles to students of all levels and ages.  Many of his students participate in school and community settings while others perform regularly with various groups and projects, and continue to pursue their musical education, career, and passion.

 

The benefit of receiving private one-on-one study in any field is the opportunity to have focused, individualized instruction that is uniquely tailored to address the student’s personal needs. Here, the student can ask questions and receive instant feedback, continuously working together with the teacher. 

 

A focus on Classical Guitar studies will help students develop a strong technique, while gaining an appreciation for the history of the guitar and repertoire of compositions.

Some styles covered include:  Classical Guitar, Folk, Pop, Fingerstyle, Rock, Metal, Blues, Bluegrass, Funk, R&B, Jamband, Grunge, Alternative, Country, and various World Music styles.

Some areas taught include:  Posture, Technique, Sight Reading Notation/Tablature, Improvisation, Theory, Ear Training/Transcription, Composition, and Songwriting. In addition, topics of music history, cultures, and world music styles are applied to offer the student a more holistic approach to their musical studies, broadening their appreciation.
