About Sharim
I'm Sharim, and I've been making music for as long as I can remember. I started with classical piano training, but I quickly felt like it was too restrictive. The focus was always on memorizing pieces and technical skills, not on true expression. With the help of some incredible mentors and a lot of self-study, I found my way back to music, first with the guitar and eventually returning to the piano with a renewed love for it. Now, my goal is to help others find that same joy and discover their unique musical voice.

We will focus on helping you develop your musicality and ear to be able to play songs you love or compose your own music. This seems like an advanced subject to many people, but you will see that breaking down music into components and applying techniques in line with your skill on the instrument is a practice that is more than possible from the beginner to the advanced musician. Lessons will be for an hour and focus on a song of the student's choice to serve as an example of how to listen, internalise and then perform the song themselves. Aspects discussed will include; music theory, guitar/piano technique, music interpretation and creative expression.
I am a multi-instrumentalist with over 20 years of experience with playing and teaching budding musicians. My expertise is primarily with acoustic guitar (fingerstyle) and piano, but the techniques taught in these lessons can apply to students who have another primary instrument.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Having been taught by Sharim for years I can highly recommend him as a passionate, patient and enthusiastic teacher. Sharim has helped me develop my musical vocabulary, identity as well as technical ability to do so. From performance to theory, Sharim takes his time to recognise how I as a student like to learn and approach learning and adapts his material and approaches to best make me learn but also enjoy what I am learning. Having come from music teachers that were quite the opposite in the past; Sharim has demystified the creative gene allowing to believe in myself as a musician without the self doubt of “not having it”.
During my lesson with Sharim he showed me not only what and how to play the songs I was learning but also why it works. It’s clear that he has a deep and extensive knowledge of music theory and improvisation on both the guitar and piano. The combination of theory and practical work makes learning exciting and also allows a deeper understanding of music and what playing and improvising really is, I can definitely recommend!!
I have known Sharim for a few years now, ever since we met at a Tommy Emmanuel music retreat. We have rehearsed, played and performed together several times since then so I have a good feel for his style of teaching.
Sharim is a skilled player with exactly the right attitude to teach. Not all skilled players can teach but Sharim is definitely one of those that can. His calm demeanour and ability to simplify difficult concepts create a perfect learning environment.
I recommend Sharim as your guitar teacher.I thought Sharim had an amazing gift - he has an ability to hear a song and create an arrangement by ear. I found out it isn’t a gift! It’s a skill you can learn!
Sharim is a natural educator. He has a deep understanding of music and can easily explain complex ideas to new learners.
He is well respected by all who know him. A natural teacher for people of all ages and abilities.View more recommendations
