I am David de Vries and I am the owner of Guide Tones Music school based in Leichhardt. It’s a unique school in that we operate from local cafes after hours (teaching from 3.15pm till 8.30pm). I currently teach from the Flood Street Carousel cafe in Leichhardt and the Pig and Pastry cafe in Petersham. These are fantastic spaces and create a welcoming, safe, open environment to learn from.
I offer private guitar lessons and adult guitar ensemble classes. I’m a professional musician with a first class honours degree (Bmus - jazz studies) from the Sydney Conservatorium with over 20 years teaching experience. I’m a very versatile musician and teacher and I’ve performed in many different contexts such as pop gigs, jazz gigs, professional theatre bands, blues bands, rock bands, recording, creative music. For a longer bio go to guidetonesmusic.com.
I believe teaching is all about is all about laying a solid foundation for the student to build from. This avoids confusion and frustration later in your progression. I aim to instil a mindset that will keep your expectations in the right place and set you up on a successful and enjoyable path. Songs I suggest for students always have a goal I’m trying to achieve. I also have a vast repertoire of songs that suit many different types of students (well sort of, it’s mostly Beatles songs really). I’m a very patient teacher that aims to build confidence in my students and keep things fun.
