About Me

Hi, my name is Paul, and I am 44 years old from Indonesia*. I have been a student of music for as long as I can remember, approx since I was6 years old and start taking courses and learn since I was 8 years old. So, about more than 30 years. I started performing was in middle school grade 8, by then was the 90's .We cover a lot of Metallica and other rock and roll bands. top 40's, that what brings me want to learn deeper specially on guitar and singing I was the James Heatfieldheband ????????. I was performing playing Metallica songs and I laso play in Various Cafe and Bar, a lot of acoustic performance, recordings, performing on Indie labels events, underground music, and a lot more.d. My teaching style can best be described as "friendly & focus". My teaching philosophy can best be described by saying that I love music because I choose this subject to stay with me for the most time of my life, and I would like to share these knowledge. In my lessons, you can expect to learn music that you play with soul. I like to tell my student that we need to have timeline of what happened and what to do so we can keep on track our progress in learning music. My favorite performance was when I was in the MTV back in early 2000's. My students love that I post videoes of myself playing guitar, singing and playing drums continously so they can see that I myself too is a student of music for eternity, because I love it so much ☺️. I primarily teach guitar, but I can also teach drums and singing a bit*. My approach as a teacher is to be a friend that's having a journey flourishing your musical development together we "strive" ????????. Thanks for taking a look at my profile. Hope to meet you soon!
