Guitar Lessons in Somerville!
I created this video illustrating parts of the acoustic guitar for my beginning students as a useful addition to their lesson. Subscribe to my video channel by clicking the “paul elwood guitar coach” logo on the lower right corner of the video.
Private lessons for individual adults, children and teens, as well as paired lessons for spouses, siblings and parent/child for Bridgewater NJ!
Bridgewater Township is a township in Somerset County in the U.S. state of New Jersey, located within the heart of the Raritan Valley region. Situated within Central New Jersey and crisscrossed by several major highways, the township is known for being both the regional commercial hub for Somerset County (home to Bridgewater Commons and different corporate headquarters) and as a suburban bedroom community of New York City within the New York Metropolitan Area. The township is located roughly 32 miles away from Manhattan and about 20 miles away from Staten Island.
Bridgewater Township has some great dining and music opportunities! Top O the Hill tavern and Green Knoll Grill, to name just two.
If you are in the Somerset area and interested in learning to play guitar (or learning to play better) I’m here to help!
If you play a bit already, you’re probably interested in playing a particular song or songs. We’ll choose one and break it down into manageable sections, getting it one piece at a time and at a comfortable speed for you. I’ll help you figure out any parts you’re having trouble with and offer suggestions for exercises that will help you overcome that problem. Timing, strumming, arpeggios, playing melody over chord changes, playing lead as well as rhythm guitar are all subjects we can focus on. I will also often create a custom video with supporting materials for your song specifically. I also offer ukulele lessons and I have loaner guitars and ukuleles to beginning students for a nominal fee.
The in-person lessons will often include a video which addresses specific problems you might be having and the video on this page is an example of that. You can subscribe to my video channel by clicking the “paul elwood guitar coach” logo on the lower right corner of the video.
