Course Details

Jessy has spent 10+ years developing his teaching style to offer a wide range of guitar lessons. He has developed a curriculum that focuses on learning multiple styles of guitar in the early years, and finding what the student gravitates towards most.

Furthermore, rather than learning scales for the sole purpose of examination and exercises, his curriculum focuses on the practical application.

Be it melody writing, improvisation, or simply learning the neck of the guitar, our curriculum focuses on learning the instrument in a practical sense.

The guitar is often considered a difficult instrument to understand, and our curriculum better prepares students for things like theory application, and understanding broader musical concepts and ideas; whilst still learning the music you want to learn!

Here at the Hamilton Academy of music we work to unite traditional music education and practical exams with modern techniques and technology to enable students to become adaptable, creative and self sufficient artists. With the ever changing music industry, our goal is to modernize music education and keep music relevant and engaging while still focusing on the musical language and how it connects to all styles of music.

Students are taught at their own pace to understand the musical language which includes reading and writing sheet music, and understanding how scales and chords function and interact in traditional and modern styles of music.

Whether it's analyzing our favorite music, recording our own songs, or preparing for an exam or performance, we are working towards an understanding of the musical language and how it can be used for your specific needs.

Teacher's Experience
Here’s our other Co-Owner, Jessy Oppenheimer. A bit about Jessy, “I grew up in a musical family with my dad and grandpa singing, which inspired me to pursue music in the first place. I started playing the drums in grade 3 and took 2 years of saxophone in grade 7 & 8 but my real passion started on the guitar when i was entering high school. I took my exams through the OCOM and RCM and attended Mohawk college after taking a year off to study music theory. I worked at the OCOM during high school and got a job at pongettis music when i moved to Hamilton for college. When pongettis shutdown I started work at the OCOM again for a couple years and also taught privately before starting the Hamilton Academy of Music.” I started the Academy to give students a chance to gain confidence through music and learn a skill that can help them in any aspect of life. whether its academic, emotional, or pure enjoyment music has something for everyone!
