I do teach in good old Germany, Dresden to be more specific. I studied Music (Acoustic and Electric Guitar) at Music Conservatory in **Rostock** and **Dresden** (yes, together with Martin Miller, he actually was my fellow student… 😉 ). Then I went to Brazil (oi @felipearanha, como vai? que bom ver brasileiros aqui! 🙂 ) to study Chorinho and Brazilian Popular Music (MPB) in Salvador da Bahia and since 5 years now I’m a professional music teacher with diploma. I do workshops, one by one lessons and band coaching. Main topics are **“how to play by ear”** (I wrote a [guitar] method on how to develop this at the same time you get to know your instrument… applicable to other instruments as well), **“rhythm and body percussion”** , **“guitar technique”** and **“writing riffs”/“composing”** (as you can see in my recent posts to using Konnokol/rhythmical structures on [metal] riffs: [Making Riffs using Konnokol](https://forum.troygrady.com/t/making-riffs-using-konnokol/9596)) My main instrument is obviously the **guitar** in all it’s forms (6, 7, classical, electric, fretless), but I also play and teach **mandolin, piano, bass, ukulele and drums** (on a basic level).
