CLASSICAL GUITAR

LESSONS

  •  Learning to play the guitar is fun and easier than you might think.  All it takes is a guitar, a few spare minutes every day, and someone to show you how to bring it all together.
  • Lessons for children ages 8 - 18 cover all of the basics including reading standard music notation, TAB, and chord diagrams. Fundamental music theory is covered also.  Also available is my special "pre-college" program to help the aspiring professional successfully pass college auditions.
  • Lessons for very young children ages 5 - 8 are available through a special program that I've developed.   This program involves parental participation and has been very successful over the years.
  • Adult lessons are available from beginning to advanced.  Whether you've never played a musical instrument before or if you are returning to the instrument after a long lay-off, the time to get started is now.
  • Group lessons for church, school, or other organizations are available.  I've developed a 24 week course that will teach the fundamentals of playing solo and in an ensemble.
  • College credits and degrees are available for registered Olivet College students.
  • For more information or pricing on specific programs, please call or email.


WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING....


"Roger turns the process of becoming a proficient guitarist into a 'playcation'!  His natural warmth, gentle patience, and witty sense of humor make lessons with him more like a unique personalized entertaining event that you leave a better guitarist every time!  I envy his students."

- Christopher Showerman (actor, producer)


"Over the years Roger has produced numerous students who have done very well at Interlochen and in their careers."

- John Wunsch (guitar instructor Interlochen Performing Arts Academy)


"No one in our vicinity wanted to teach guitar to a 5-year old.  I was told repeatedly that he would be too easily distracted and that the fine motor skills in his hands and fingers were not developed enough.  So I widened my search, and found Roger, who returned my telephone call.  I thought that if his patience in answering all of my naive questions was any indication of his patience with children, then he was the teacher for us.  Five years later, when my son played for his school music class, his teacher said he was the best she'd heard of anyone that age.  I am lucky; every day I get to hear classical music while my son practices.  This is indeed music to my ears, thanks to Roger."

- Lucinda D. (proud parent)


"Roger helped me develop as an artist and a musician - building a solid musical foundation that led me to study classical guitar at an academic level and participate in masterclasses with world renowned classical guitarists, Angel Romero and Pepe Romero."

- Miguel Ferreyra-Flores (classical guitarist and graphic designer)


"If it were not for Roger Humphrey I would not have chosen to be a classical guitarist.  His inspiring performances and teaching methods gave me the solid foundation that helped launch my concert career.  He is a dedicated and motivated guitar instructor. Students would be very lucky to study with him."

- Robert Gruca (concert artist)
