About Mathew

Hello! My name is Mathew AJ and I'm an aspiring guitarist / instrumentalist with touring experience in the US as well as overseas (over 100+ gigs played). I'm great at creating fun and organized lessons & practice plans for students, as well as advising them on new music to listen to, for growing of their musical ears and knowledge!

As far as my experience goes, I've been playing the guitar for about 10 years. I also play other instruments such as the piano (12 years), the bass guitar and drums! (self-taught for a few years, each). I'm studying music online with Berklee College of Music and have studied music theory, piano, and guitar at PMI - Dubai, UAE for about 4 years, beginning at the age of 7. I've also performed and passed multiple Trinity College of London piano / music theory examinations with 95 plus % in that 4-year period (age 7 to 11).

I have some experience in teaching music and worked with more than a few students aged from ages 8 to 48! (both in Lebanon and Austin), teaching them to learn to play the guitar and piano from scratch, as well as some basic music theory.

Some more info about me:

-Great experience with kids, helped raised two little siblings for over a decade.

-Graduated high school at 16 years old with a GPA of 3.975.

-Current GPA at Berklee Online is 4.0.

-Fluent is English and Arabic, conversational French skills.

Looking forward to hearing from you and helping you learn! Mathew.

I enjoy playing and writing music because it's a wonderful way of expressing endless emotions. Learning music from a young age helps your brain grow as well. Overall, I'm just happy to share my passion with others and help others reach their goals and dreams as well!

I've studied music theory as a child and performed and passed many London Trinity examinations at the age of 7-11. I'm also currently almost done with my Berklee Online Masters Certificate in Songwriting & Guitar.

About the lesson

The first step in working with a new student is really going into the student's capabilities and understanding of their instrument(s), as well as their goals. That way, I would be able to form a practice program for the student and work on improving their weaknesses and strengths too, and to ensure the student doesn't try to get out of their comfort zone, which would affect their overall performance and passion towards the instrument.

Mostly Kids, but I have also taught many teenagers & adults.

The student should be comfortable with the teacher above all, and see the lessons as a fun interactive time rather than a course. That would help the student grow their passion for their instrument and give them the drive to practice and learn more.

In early 2016, I toured with my Pink Floyd tribute band in Texas, and Louisiana as well as overseas in the Middle East for about 4 months, making it over 60 shows with that band played since 2014. As well as many other session gigs with multiple touring acts.

My son took lessons with Mathew for 2 years, and he was outstanding! Very patient, professional & fun from day 1. Each lesson is very well-organized, well-structured, and Mathew gets things done efficiently & in a timely manner. They're also very interactive, which captivated my son and made him eager to learn more each lesson! The progress my son made over the course of these 2 years was surprising to me, top job from Mathew's side.

Mathew was super patient with my son! He was able to redirect him easily when he went off on a tangent and teach him quite a bit more than I thought would go into a first lesson. He let my son figure out some stuff on his own after the initial instruction and always came back to the original lesson. Throughout the lesson, Mathew would review the scale and chord that my son learned to keep it fresh. We can't wait for the next!
