Guitar Lessons Utrecht

Hello! I am Pierre Jonker, all-round performing guitarist in Utrecht. Are you just starting to play guitar? Or are you more advanced and want to improve your technique, get inspiration from an experienced and enthusiastic teacher?

Lessons for all Ages

I have various electric and acoustic guitars and teach from my home studio in Hoograven, Utrecht. Free parking in front of the house! It’s also possible to have lessons at your home! Book a trial lesson.

Advanced Guitar Lessons

You’ll start getting more out of your technique and will notice that you’re playing smoother and with more feeling. I am very versatile and I’d like to guide you to deepen and develop in all styles.

Beginner Guitar Lessons

Generally for beginners, work will begin through methods and exercises to learn the basics, starting with simple melodies and chords. Strumming patterns , fingerstyle and plectrum. I'll teach you to read notation as well as guitar tablature, to give you a well-rounded start.

Rent or buy a Guitar?

If you don’t have your own guitar yet, you can borrow one of mine for the trial lesson, and I will help you find a good one to buy when you’re ready.

Folk - Blues - Pop -Jazz - Songwriter

The lessons are about the kind of music you want to play, whether it’s your own songs, the latest hits or jazz standards! Practical tips will help you improve.

My Favourites!

Personally, I get my inspiration from listening to Steely Dan, Queen, Peter Bernstein, Jim Hall and Metallica.

Improvisation

We’ll play together in the lessons, Blues, Jazz or Pop, working on improvisation. As a result you’ll develop your musical skills, listen better to other musicians and play more freely and communicatively.

Recording yourself

Do you want to learn how to make your own recordings using a program like Logic? I can teach you the basics and when you’re ready for more we can dive in!
