About Raphael

I’m a passionate Multi-Instrumentalist and teacher with a vast experience helping students of all ages learn and enjoy music. I focus on making lessons fun, practical, and tailored to each student’s goals so from the basics of chords and strumming to advanced techniques and improvisation you would be sure to enjoy the lessons always. Whether you’re picking up the guitar for the first time or looking to take your playing to the next level, I would love to share the skills and knowledge I’ve gained through my years of playing live and recording guitar with you. Cheers!

Raphael's teaching style is such a nice balance of structure and flexibility, you learn proper technique but he also lets you explore the kind of music you love. Every lesson feels really engaging, and I always come away with something new to practice that ACTUALLY feels doable for me. What sets him apart is how patient and encouraging he is, like even when I make mistakes, he turns it into a learning opportunity instead of a setback and that's one of the things that makes him unique. If you want a piano teacher who makes learning both fun and effective, Raphael is definitely the one.

We started our lessons recently and i have so much enjoyed his teaching style. He really does simplify the topics and brings it to your level. We were able to do a lot in our first class and i'm loving it. I would definitely recommend him as i'm enjoying our ongoing lessons! Thank you.

I met Raphael at my workplace and he made learning FL Studio really easy for me as I was looking to recording my live drums. Raphael explained everything step by step and showed me tips that helped my recordings sound way better. I’d definitely recommend his lessons to anyone wanting to get into music production.

Learning piano with Mr. Raphael has been such a great experience. He makes the lessons fun, easy to follow, and really focuses on helping you play the music you enjoy. He was also very amazing in accompanying me, as my first instrument is my vocals, he helped bring my ideas to life. I’ve learned so much in a short time and feel way more confident of my songs. I definitely recommend him.
