Truly, a 360 degree education of music on the guitar.

My name is Tim Collins. I've been playing guitar for over 10 years, and hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Popular Music Studies from the University of Western Ontario. I am currently studying Music Production and Audio Engineering at Toronto’s Trebas Institute of Recording Arts. I've also studied music privately with Dan Goldman and Ken Aldcroft- two guitar professionals in the Toronto area. Featuring music theory, technical guitar skill, songwriting, popular music history, and the science and physics of sound, the lessons can focus on the areas that are of most interest to you, at a pace that you find comfortable. You'll be glad you took the initiative to learn. Private one-to-one lessons, as well as group lessons, are available. Looking forward to hearing from you. Develop your passion, be the best you can be, and have a good time! facebook.com/rootnotemusiclessons
