Guitar Lessons
I am going to share with my students everything that learnt throughout these years from my tutors. However, one need to understand that without effort, sacrifice, dedication and practice no progress is achieved – no matter how good the teacher is. Every student must find some time to practice during the day. It is useless to be equipped with the best guitars, amps, sound effects and so on – they do not play on their own!
I am going to start giving lessons of Guitar and Theory from Preliminary to Diplomas. All ages are welcome except very young children (under 6 years). Those who wish to try out a couple of lessons before buying the guitar are also welcome – in that case they can use my guitars during the lesson. Moreover, students who own a guitar, but for a reason or another cannot bring it along for the lesson, are provided with one too.

about me
I am a qualified guitarist from RGT. I’ve been playing guitar for 14 years. My inspiration to start playing the guitar was since I was just a little girl at the age of 7. Back in the time, I used to listen to a lot of bands and guitarists, from Black Sabbath to the Shadows. The fact that the majority of famous guitarists were all men, I kept holding back until I saw Joan Jett and Courtney Love on T.V. In 2007 I started to take my first guitar lessons with Marc Galea at the Euro Institute Hamrun Malta. Marc inspired me to further my studies and get qualified. In 2018 I was graduated with an LLCM Diploma in Electric Guitar performance.
In 2009 I started to take lessons of the Theory of Music with Mro. Ray Sciberras and Ms. Rita Micallef, which in 2020 I got the Grade 8 level. My first performance goes back in 2012 when I joined an Ensemble called Valletta Ensemble directed by Mro.Roderick Bugeja and Valhmor Monfort. From that year many opportunities came up and I started to play in various events as a session guitarist which included different musicians with different styles. From Annual Feast programs to Metal/Rock bands and weddings. In August same year I had the opportunity to study in Jazz Festival in Sicily. In 2020 during the covid-19 pandemic, I started teaching with online lessons.
My aim was to encourage others to play guitar during the horrible period and a least do something positive to keep themselves motivated. From that time ‘till now got really well to teaching and I started to give a lesson as individual attention as online and as Face-to-face lessons, from beginners to advanced level.
