COMMENTS
"I really appreciate the classes. Eric really helps me improve on the guitar. He teaches me the essentials. "
Sandrine, 14, Montreal.
"The guitar lessons that Eric has allowed me to follow consistently and effectively, have been an effective tool and one of the main reasons for my admission to the Conservatoire de Montréal. It allowed me to start from scratch nowhere, in just one year, to allow me to structure a solid and concrete musical understanding as well as a repertoire and an adequate technique for my admission to the conservatory. I thank him for his dedication to my learning. "
Kevin, 16, Montreal.
"After a little over a year learning the guitar by myself, I contacted Eric to take professional lessons. This decision was most fruitful, because in addition to making me a personalized learning program, Eric allowed me to correct the bad techniques I had taken on the guitar. Now, I am confident that I can go further in mastering my instrument. "
Jacques, Montreal.
"The guitar lessons with Eric are great motivators and helped me get started. Now I am at the point where I can almost read any sheet of music comfortably. "
Sylvie, Montreal.
"I'm learning with interest everything Eric tells me in class. It may not be that I do not understand something because it explains the concepts very clearly. The teacher is fun and I like the way he teaches the guitar. I have a lot of freedom, to choose what we will do and I appreciate that I do not force myself. Eric puts a good mood. "
Nikolay, 16, Montreal.
"For almost four years, Eric has been teaching me to play and develop in classical guitar. As I am in a high school specialized in guitar, when I do not understand a score or I just need help in the course, it makes me understand my mistakes. It helps me to strengthen my bases and makes me learn other notions. Eric is very patient. "
Salome, Montreal, Canada.
"After a few years of guitar lessons with Eric, I can now say that he taught me a lot more than music. I discovered a universe of sounds, silences, presence and that, always in the pleasure and the respect. He is very patient, versatile and likes what he does. He gave me a solid base to continue on my own ... "
Hélène, Montreal, Canada.
"I started the guitar all alone and all wrong, of course I could not do anything! Eric became my guitar teacher, he watched me do it and without realizing it he gradually unlearned me (the "all crooked") and learned everything. He is a subtle pedagogue who adapts to our weaknesses and our strengths. Never binding but never complacent, it gives the right time, the one that allows you to know where you are. It guides us smoothly, guides us in flexibility. He accompanies us patiently but always enlighten us on the way (difficult! ...) that we will have to do. In short, trust him! "
Mickael, Montreal, Canada.
"Inspired and inspiring, Eric is an exceptional pedagogue. Listening to our personality and our needs, he knows how to create the method for the course that suits us. Learning to play guitar is a unique pleasure and thanks to Eric, the guitar is revealed to us, as much as we reveal ourselves through it. "
Audrey, Montreal, Canada.
"Eric teaches me classical guitar. I appreciate the pedagogical approach he adopts for his course. First, learning a musical instrument involves the progressive mastery of various techniques. Eric tackles each of these techniques, by simple exercises, while taking care to make realize their importance as for the improvement of the sound and / or to facilitate the execution of the game on the guitar. Eric also made me realize that a score is much more than a succession of notes on a sheet of paper, it gives benchmarks and tools to '' decrypt '' the sheet of music in order to capture the nuances and color that wanted to give the composer to his piece. First guitar lesson that I am where notions of rigor and pleasure go hand in hand! "
Jean-François, Montreal.
"I took classical guitar lessons with Eric for over 4 years. I remember telling him at my first class that my goal was to become independent, to be able to take a score and to be able to play the piece without supervision. And that's exactly what happened. What I particularly liked was how he approached each room. We took the time to analyze what was the best fingering to adopt, then the technique to finally put color in all that. He also motivated me when I was less motivated. I recommend Eric to all those who want to learn to play the guitar well, he has a lot to share! "
Dominique, Montreal.
"Eric is a great guitar teacher, extremely patient and accommodating to different learning styles. He really took into account what my learning goals were and worked on, incorporating my music - flies by! And his cat is the sweetest animal, definitely the most friendly feline I've ever met. I highly recommend Eric as a teacher!
Manjari, Montreal, Canada.
I always wanted to play the guitar, at 57 I decided that I had to challenge myself. I looked for and found an excellent teacher, Eric. It's been a year now that I'm his classes and I'm very satisfied. He teaches in a methodical and progressive way the good techniques (chain of chords, reading of the music, the base of the blues, etc.) and corrects bad habits. I improved my technique a lot over the last year. I recommend it to all future guitarists, with Eric as a guitar teacher you will learn to use your musical instrument.
Robert. Montreal, Canada
I already played the guitar for 4 years when I came to see Eric for guitar lessons. He perfectly adapted to my game and my level, while giving me little by little useful advice to correct my faults. I was able to learn to read scores very quickly, which was one of my goals for the class and we also talked about pieces in different styles of music. His method is very progressive and I progressed in all areas of my game: rhythm, music, scales, harmony, mastery of the instrument ...
Hugo, Montreal, Canada
Before meeting Eric, I had no musical notion, nor any idea of the fabulous instrument that a guitar represented. After barely a year of class with Eric, I can not believe myself in the progress I've made. Eric's teaching method is very good and provides motivation. In addition to the guitar lessons are given in a very relaxed atmosphere, which can quickly assimilate the concepts. I have never seen a teacher so patient and passionate (a passion that contaminates) that Eric!
Akofa Clara, Montreal, Canada.
" Teacher. very patient. If you go there regularly it is guaranteed that you will have very satisfactory results. In addition, guitar lessons are never boring. "
Émilie Zhao, age 15, Montreal, Canada.
"Sincerely, Eric is the best guitar teacher I've had. He knows how to dose the theory, essential for understanding the basics, and practice. I have made tremendous progress in one year of classes and I am very grateful to him. I am also much more confident than before. I feel that the foundation I have learned is strong and I know it will take me even further. I recommend the teaching services of Eric Lemieux without hesitation. "
Éric Férole, Montreal, Canada.
"Finding Eric's Flyer in Mailbox was an invitation to a teacher with a Zen Master's teaching intuition. He knows exactly what the student needs at every moment and inspires him on the next level. Amazing teacher and great musician. My never-ending lesson is a stepping stone to a conversation that I never imagined I could achieve. "
Dr. Michael, Montreal, Canada.
“I’ve been thinking about the guitar for 30 years. And then life... It's been more than a year, and life (again!) now leads me to have to leave the beautiful Province and return to live among my people in France. It therefore also forces me to abandon my weekly lessons with Eric, and it is a real regret. I have just spent a wonderful year learning the guitar with a caring teacher, attentive, supportive, taking the time for explanations. , and following my pace of progress. Éric is an experienced teacher, who has thought about the different steps to follow progressively, from reading notes to learning rhythms, from arpeggio to chords, from practice to theory, in order to acquire a solid technical background which prepares you to tackle more difficult pieces and therefore to taste all the joys of music. Eric makes you discover music like you've never heard it before. Eric is also a classical guitar virtuoso, but don't be afraid, he will know how to teach you the Beatles and Radiohead.</ol> I also enjoyed going every week to this quiet neighborhood of NDG, with dark brick houses in the shade of tall trees, welcomed by the big cat (who will then slip into your guitar case) and the voice from Eric in the entrance hall. For a year it was a breath of fresh air in my life, a moment of pleasure that I will remember every day when I pick up my guitar.”
Fabrice, Montreal, Canada.
"Playing guitar forever was a dream for me. Since my first class with Eric a year ago, I made very big progress in guitar, I left a lot and after an evaluation on his part, he was able to set up a beautiful personalized learning. Today, I have fun with this instrument and I really gained autonomy. We work together reading notes and chords but also technique and styles of music. We play together and he knows how to adapt to my rhythm. His lynx eye allows him to guide you in your learning and correct your bad habits. I am very satisfied and his great passion for music makes him an excellent teacher impressing by his talent that is easily worth 1h of road each week for a course. A big thank you Eric! . "
Jerome, Montreal, Canada.
"It's been a year since I started guitar lessons with Eric and I'm very happy with the results. I learn music (reading, rhythm, etc.), I who worked by the ear, and I discover the immense universe of creation that is offered to me by the mastery of my instrument. Eric is a very present and purposeful teacher, which creates a lot of motivation for the student. It is a privilege to benefit from his teaching and I intend to continue classes for a long time. "
Thérèse S., Montreal, Canada.
"I would like to emphasize about my teacher Eric, his pedagogical excellence, his rigor, his enthusiasm and good mood very important in the atmosphere required for learning. I am a Chilean exile who had learned some basic guitar in Chile, with the great concertist Liliana Perez Corey, but today has relearned the exercise for reasons rather therapeutic but also fun. "
