About Guitar Instructor
Billy B’s musical journey began at the age of 7 when he displayed a natural talent for guitar, bass, and mandolin. As he explored various musical styles, he gained valuable experience performing in school plays and leading the band for Christmas telethons.
By the time he reached 13, Billy had formed his own band, taking on the roles of lead and harmony vocals while showcasing his guitar skills. His dedication to music was recognized with a plaque for his leadership as the musical director of Café Chantant, the high school band.
Since his move to Edmonton in 2000, Billy has expanded his musical horizons. He has written a jingle for a CMT music special, traveled to Europe, and made appearances on television alongside fellow music artists. His performances at major events like the Big Valley Jamboree and the Merritt Mountain Music Festival have further solidified his presence in the industry.
Looking ahead, Billy is eager to continue his musical journey and build upon his achievements. Alongside teaching guitar in Edmonton, he collaborates with various Canadian recording artists and contributes tracks to studios across the country.
The #1 focus: You
Nothing is more important to me than my students success. It starts by having fun.
- I want students to be comfortable and enjoy playing the guitar.
- I want students to enjoy practicing while learning different aspects about the guitar such as how to practice properly, music theory, rhythm and etc..
- I want students to learn some of their favorite songs so they can enjoy playing the guitar
The #2 focus: Lesson Structure
Great lesson structure makes it easier for my students to accelerate their progress. Over the years I have developed and refined key exercises that help the student(s) get excellent results in a short amount of time if they follow my system. If students follow and practice regularly with my well-organized lesson system, they will succeed!
The #3 focus: Constant improvement and growth
I am always learning and improving my teaching techniques by frequently taking lessons from music mentors all over the world and integrating their coaching styles into my system. I always strive to be better. To better educate myself, to better educate my students, to offer better lessons, to provide better support, and most importantly: To make your life better with the gift of enjoying and playing music!
I don’t want to be “just another guitar teacher”. I am constantly growing and improving myself, my lesson structure, my business, and I always will.
If you think you can tell me how I can be even better, don’t hesitate and send me your ideas.
