PRIVATE ELECTRIC AND ACOUSTIC GUITAR LESSONS



The Lessons are 1-on-1 in Nicosia or via Skype for the rest of Cyprus and
abroad.

The styles of music I teach are Rock, Metal, Blues, Funk and Jazz.

All levels are welcome. From an absolute begginer struggling with his first
songs. To advanced players who are looking for motivation, feeling "stuck" on
their playing level or just need to expand their musical horizon.

Kids classes are also available (6 years or older) and courses for adults with
limited time that decided to learn the electric or acoustic guitar.
My responsibility as a guitar instructor is to make sure we take advantage of
all the time you can give me and get the maximum and fastest results.

The lessons are personally tailored to each students needs, goals, level of
playing, strengths and weaknesses. From teaching simple songs, to the point of
creating a professional guitar player.

Besides our first meeting, the first actual lesson is free, so the student can
see my mentality and way of teaching before commiting to lessons with me.

 * Demetris Christou ★★★★★ 6 months ago
   I was introduced to guitarist Jimmy’s musical genius, both as a performer as
   well as an instructor and it is fairly common knowledge among the local
   musical scene that that this virtuoso's talent and technique can only … More
   be shadowed by his modesty and shy demeanor. Technically he’s brilliant and
   meticulous. He’s an amazing performer with a huge range of skills and tricks.
   As an instructor he is patient and inspiring with all his students, and
   always a great motivator.
 * Phani Varnava ★★★★★ a year ago
   Excellent teacher! When i first went to my first lesson i thought i would not
   be able to get much out of a few months of summer lessons that i would had
   with him. I was blown away, i got to play my favorite metal band's … More
   songs in only 3 months. Jim can really pinpoint difficulties his students
   have and help his students correct them in a very easy and adaptable manner.
 * Stelios Hadjilambris ★★★★★ a year ago
   Jim is an amazing guitar player and teacher. He is very versatile in his
   teaching always trying to adjust his teaching to fit his student's needs,
   wants, level of knowledge and available time for practice. Lessons with …
   More Jim are fun and I always look forward for the next lesson. I strongly
   recommend Jim.
 * Sotiris Fit ★★★★★ 3 years ago
   Jim managed to motivate and encourage me to begin guitar lessons, something I
   had always wanted since childhood but didn't have the chance to pursue. Then,
   with patience, guidance, a great teaching method, awesome transmissibility …
   More and incredible talent as an artist as well as an instructor, he still
   tirelessly gives me the skills I need, all in my own pace and in a
   personalized teaching style just for me. He is able to identify individual
   teaching cues that work for different people specifically, and he also
   functions as a life coach, motivating me in regards to guitar lessons and
   life in general with his knowledge and wisdom. He's also a fun and kind
   person, always cool to be around. Enough said. Highly recommended.




LESSONS

BELOW YOU CAN FIND THE MOST FUNDAMENTAL SKILLSETS THAT WE MAKE SURE WE
CONSTANTLY EVOLVE, AMONG OTHERS, IN OUR GUITAR CLASSES. THESE APPLY TO THE
ELECTRIC AND THE ACOUSTIC GUITAR AS WELL. OUR MAIN FOCUS DEPENDS ON THE GOALS OF
THE STUDENT AND THE LEVEL HE IS AIMING FOR. THE TRAINING ROUTINE IS CUSTOMISED
TO YOU , IT IS ALWAYS CLEAR AND CONSTANTLY REDEFINED THE BETTER YOU GET AT THE
GUITAR.


TECHNIQUE 
 

We will learn how to properly execute all the modern electric or acoustic guitar
techniques. Through specific exersises and while developing the right mentality.
Also focusing on natural movement and posture. Thus, we will be able to play
whatever we dream of, never getting stuck in our playing and keeping injuries
away.


FINGERBOARD KNOWLEDGE

Visualising the fretboard in multiple levels. From knowing our notes, chords and
scales to much more complex patterns that we will combine with theory, technique
and improvisation. With very simple step-by-step methods the fretboard will be
so well visually constructed in our mind , that looking at it will seem like a
''cheat sheet''.


THEORY



From playing to... Knowing what we are playing . ''Why this chord ?'', "Why this
scale ?''. In theory we find the answers for those who pursue a deeper musical
knowledge and care about commmunicating with other mucisians, Improvising,
analysing songs and writting their own music.


REPERTOIRE - MUSICAL VOCABULARY

Learning songs, solos, phrases or riffs that we always dreamed of playing.
Something that is very entertaining and satisfactory but also very useful.
Copying all the ''sounds'' other guitar players make through the guitar and
borrowing ideas , will later help us create our very personal sound and style.


IMPROVISATION



ONE OF THE MOST CREATIVE PROCESSES OF THE ELECTRIC AND THE ACOUSTIC GUITAR.
COMBINING ALL THE KNOWLEDGE WE HAVE BUILT BUT ALSO THE EXPERIENCE FROM THE MUSIC
WE HAVE LISTENED TO, THROUGH THE YEARS. WE CREATE OUR OWN SOLOS, ON THE SPOT. A
VERY SPECIAL MENTAL AND PHYSICAL EXPERIENCE. IMPROVISATION IS SOMETHING WE FOCUS
QUITE A LOT ON, DURING OUR BLUES AND JAZZ CLASSES.


COMPOSITION - ARRANGEMENT -RECORDING
BESIDES THE THEORY BEHIND COMPOSITION. WE WILL MONITOR THE WORK OF SEVERAL
ARTISTS AND TALK ABOUT PATTERNS, CLISES AND TRICKS THAT WILL HELP US COMPOSE OUR
MUSICAL PIECES. WE WILL ALSO TALK ABOUT MUSICAL ARRANGEMENT FROM THE GUITAR
PLAYER PERSPECTIVE . FINALLY WE WILL TALK RECORDING BASICS AND HOW TO SET UP OUR
HOME STUDIO.

BIOGRAPHY



I was born in Athens in 1989. My first encounter with music was at a very young
age through my father Angel Skordilis, who was a musician. All my early music
influences, that were introduced to me by my father, where those classic 70’s
blues – rock – country styles.

I didn’t pick up the guitar until the age of 16. After spending a summer with my
father touring around Crete i decided that this is what i want to do in my life.
So i picked up the axe with the goal of joining my fathers band and be a part of
this!

And so it happened. A year later i started touring with him and for the next 7
years of my life i played over 300 shows everywhere in Greece. From the smallest
bar, to the most beautiful beach, to the festivals and big stages!

After playing for 3 years mostly with the help of my father (and guitar pro ). I
decided that i needed to go to a higher level and get academic knowledge and
also find a tutor that would make me evolve as a player cause the father son
teaching wasn’t really working ( you got to pay to take it seriously ).

So i started lessons with the renowned guitar tutor Ioannis Anastassakis. I
studied modern guitar techniques and at the same time took my electric guitar
teaching diploma through Univercity of West London.

In 2007 i released my first video clip of the song ”As simple as that” and later
on in 2010 me and my father released the recond ”Taksidiotis ton kairon” by
mirror records. At the same year i won the 1st prize at Volos Electric Guitar
Competion. I released more videos and songs later on that are available in
youtube.

At the age of 20 i started teaching guitar and realized how much I love helping
people, that want to learn music, achieve their personal goals. Whether they
want to play a song for their friends or be professionals, i realy enjoy the
process of helping them make it happen.

At 22 i started lessons with Theodore Ziras to expand my metal techniques and
repertoire and later on i studied jazz guitar and improvisation with Grigoris
Danis at Lab Athens and took private theory and sight reading classes with
Theodore Kalantzakos.

In 2015 Bob Katsionis (Firewind, Outloud), one of the most talented and
influencial people i know, did me the honors of taking me in his band Outloud. I
participated in 2 European and 3 Greek tours with these guys.

We recently released out latest album ''Virtual Hero Society'' and we are
getting ready for our next tour. Today I’m in Nicosia playing with the bands
Neon Knights and Sands of Time and of course teaching music in my home studio…!!
