Question 3

Can I take advantage of your method; even if I don't know how to read music?

Accepted Answer

I'm quite sure at the first time you'll need some teacher who could explain to you the basics things about music notes and scripture. You could do it while you start to play the instrument.

Question 4

I have studied for a few months, some time ago... can I start since chapter two or three?"

Accepted Answer

Yes, of course. I would suggest send me the last score that you had played and I will tell you in my opinion which one is the best chapter to restart.

Question 5

How much time I will need to play well?

Accepted Answer

Every day my students and I play the instrument trying to be better and better players. There isn't a time to said, "OK, I'm a good player" It is a daily work.
Even though I would tell you the time what my ordinary students needs (since the very beginning to play an easy arrangement of a tango) oscillate between two or three month.

Question 6

What kind of style you teach with your method? Which school are you following teaching?

Accepted Answer

I'm not following only one school. I have gathered all the things that I have practiced with classical teachers and others from the tango style and then I have written my own path of exercises.

Question 7

Was your method made for professionals only?

Accepted Answer

The method is accessible for amateur players. If after some time of practicing some student wants to be a professional player; he/she already has the basic things to get a good position and sound.
