About Marilyn
Picking up the instrument for the first time usually feels awkward and quite difficult. I confess that my own initial attempts at acoustic technique were clumsy and frustrating until I found the right rhythmic focus. My 6 years of experience allow me to simplify the mechanics of songwriting for any student.
I provide custom backing tracks so students can practice soloing at home. This method ensures you keep your momentum between our scheduled meetings. Reach out if you want to see how this technical structure helps you play better.

I started out by obsessing over the precise fingerpicking patterns found in folk music. My 6 years of experience involve helping teens and returning learners navigate complex fretboards. I hold a BM Popular Music degree from the Université de Montréal which informs how I teach ear training. Grading exam candidates is a regular part of my week as I help them prepare for technical requirements.
I use my own electric technique to demonstrate lead guitar concepts in real time. Absolute beginners often need help with basic tuning and maintenance before we touch a song. We look at reading sheet music and reading tabs to ensure you have a complete skill set.
My approach relies on direct feedback to correct posture or hand positioning during our time together. Most of my work simply feels like a collaboration between two people who enjoy the process of making music.
