About the lesson
Hi, and welcome to my ukulele studio! My name is Tim Johnson, and I'm a Norwegian musician living in NYC, and would love to help you reach your musical goals!
The lessons: I tailor the lesson plan according your personal musical taste and goals. Each student is different, and to me it's very important to get to know you and what you're passionate about, so that you'll have fun and enjoy the learning process, and keep the spark going! Whether you're into pop, jazz, rock, r&b, or beyond, we'll build the skills you need to play the music you love!
I'm happy to teach any level, as long as you're willing to invest a little practice time between the lessons, so that you keep progressing. And if you’re a total beginner, don’t worry, you’ll be playing some of your favorite songs in no time!
Over the years I've found online lessons to be just as effective for most students, and it saves us both significant time and money, and allow us to continue even when traveling, so I now offer a 5 to 10 percent discount if you decide to take lessons online with me instead of in-person!

I've known Timothy for about 2 years now and can say with confidence that I would definitely recommend him as a teacher to anyone! He is a very experienced musician while also being an extremely nice person. How he explains or demonstrates music and techniques in the most apprehensive way is just amazing. He would also really adjust to the students level and pace, making him a great fit for any student. We've shared the stage a couple of times and it was always a great time.
I know Timothy since many years, we met at Berklee College of Music and since then he impressed me with his musicianship! I am recommending Tim with full confidence, he is a great teacher, as well as a good human, and his knowledge and understanding level is incredibly versatile.
Hi everyone, Tim is a wonderful teacher. I've been learning guitar (especially Jazz) for long years. I met him a few years ago, and He always suggests great practicing ways. If you're interested in how to play guitar or Jazz, I absolutely recommend this amazing artist.
I’ve been having such a great time, and my
progress has really picked up! I really
recommend Tim if you need a fun and
patient guitar teacher!Tim really helped me getting my jazz playing together. We worked a lot on soloing over different chord progressions and he improved my sense of rhythm a lot!
Great guy, can recommend :)I have played the guitar for many years and have gone through a good handful of teachers. Tim is only second to my grandfather's teachings. His patience, understanding, and attention to detail will bring out the top musician in all students.
