Why Choose Private Guitar Coaching?
Finding the right guitar teacher in Singapore is crucial. Many beginners quit within months because of "finger pain" or frustration with barre chords. At KGMA, our private guitar lessons are designed to overcome these physical hurdles quickly using ergonomic techniques that YouTube tutorials simply cannot teach.
The 1-on-1 Advantage: In a group class, it's easy to hide poor hand positioning. At KGMA, we correct your thumb placement and wrist angle instantly, ensuring you play cleaner and faster. Whether you are a child starting on Ukulele, a teen wanting to start a rock band, or an adult looking to play fingerstyle, our studios are equipped with top-tier amplifiers and acoustic instruments.
Curriculum Tailored For Every Age
Guitar & Ukulele for Kids
Small Hands, Big Sounds
For children under 7, we often recommend starting with the **Ukulele**. It has 4 nylon strings (soft on fingers) and a small body. Once their hand strength develops, we transition them to a 1/2 or 3/4 size Classical or Acoustic Guitar.
The Junior Rocker Method
We use simplified "one-finger" chords so kids can play songs like "Roar" or "Baby Shark" in the very first lesson, building confidence before tackling complex theory.
Phase 1: Open Strings
Learning the names of the strings (Eddie Ate Dynamite Good Bye Eddie) and basic plucking.
Phase 2: First Chords
Mastering C, G, and Em to play thousands of pop songs.
Phase 3: Strumming
Developing a steady "Down-Up" rhythm hand.
Phase 4: Melody
Reading simple tablature (Tabs) to play famous riffs.
Guitar Lessons for Teenagers
Electric Shredding & Band Skills
Teens often want to rock. We support that fully. Whether it's learning the solo from "Sweet Child O' Mine" or mastering complex jazz chords for DSA applications, we provide the technical rigor required.
The Hybrid Advantage
We balance "cool" skills like power chords and bending with essential theory. They'll learn *why* the solo works, not just how to play it.
Phase 1: Power Chords
The foundation of Rock and Pop. Playing chords that move up and down the neck.
Phase 2: Scales (Pentatonic)
The secret sauce of improvisation. Learning to solo in any key.
Phase 3: Techniques
Hammer-ons, Pull-offs, Bends, and Slides to make the guitar sing.
Phase 4: Barre Chords
Conquering the "F Chord" with proper thumb technique and strength.
Guitar Lessons for Adults
Campfire Strumming & Fingerstyle
Always wanted to play "Hotel California" or just strum along to Ed Sheeran? We specialize in adult beginners. We skip the nursery rhymes and get you playing the songs you love, fast.
The Hybrid Advantage
We focus on "high-yield" chords. By learning just 4 chords (G, C, D, Em), you can play thousands of songs. We prioritize fun and relaxation over strict drills.
Phase 1: The Basics
Holding the pick, reading a chord chart, and tuning the guitar.
Phase 2: Rhythm
Mastering the \"Island Strum\" and other common patterns.
Phase 3: Transitions
Changing chords smoothly without pausing the beat.
Phase 4: Fingerstyle
Using fingers instead of a pick for a delicate, piano-like sound.
Build Your Chops
From open chords to advanced improvisation, we build your skills layer by layer.
Dexterity & Hold
Developing independent finger strength and proper pick grip/hand position.
Chords & Rhythm
Mastering open chords, barre chords, and locking into the groove with strumming patterns.
