    About me

    Hi! My name is George.


    I live in Moldova and enjoy teaching people from different countries via this platform. I have been collaborating with preply.com since September 2017. I’ve been teaching guitar since 2014 and both Russian and Romanian since 2017.


    I offer 3 types of lessons:


    1) Guitar lessons: Classical or fingerstyle. For beginners, I will teach you to sing simple songs and play simple chords. If you are an intermediate student I will help you to make your own arrangement. With my help, you will sound better and will enjoy guitar playing. Music theory is fun and simple. Learn it with me. And you will understand many important things in the pieces you learn.

    - Note reading and fingerboard

    - Short basic pieces

    - Technical exercises

    - Practicing scales

    - Basic, intermediate and advanced chords

    - Classical studies and beautiful well-known pieces.

    - Travis-picking (or boom-chick), fingerstyle basics, and practicing amazing arrangements


    2) Russian language lessons: I’m very motivated in teaching you my mother tongue. Lessons include;

    -alphabet

    -numbers

    -speaking

    -grammar

    -pronunciation

    -reading Cyrillic, and understanding

    -nouns and declensions

    -verbs and conjugation

    I explain the Russian cases in a way that is easy to understand.

    I`ve been teaching Russian on this platform since 2017.


    3) Romanian language lessons: I live in Moldova, a country that is bilingual in both Russian and Romanian.

    Language Study Program includes learning

    - the Alphabet.

    -Diphthongs

    -Numbers

    -Common phrases and situations -Nouns (how to make the difference between singular and plural forms, feminine, masculine and neuter forms)

    -Verb conjugation

    -Present, Future, and Past Tenses

    - Reading

    -Writing letters using the vocabulary studied in each lesson

    -Listening and comprehension

    -Study the patterns to

    understand the logic of constructing sentences

    -Using auxiliary mobile applications for studying the language

    I`ve been teaching Romanian on this platform since 2017.

      George is making a specific learning way for me, and I think he knows how to do it with anyone else, due his experience. I think this is the most important thing for a teacher, to be flexible, and he's patient.
