Hi... any can recommend me a gud eguitar teacher/center that cost me reasonably ?

most cost effective way? youtube and your own will. nowadays its about having the will and time to practice. loads of tutorial articles and videos on the net.

Kelvyn Yeang from Ocean of Fire...
He's teaching in Areca School of Performing Arts...

true true

true, nowadays internet has almost got everything u wan/nid, but a guitar teacher will point out ur mistakes, adjust them, lead u the correct way, n there are many small details(flame on!) that many newbie dun realize, only the experienced ones will notice the small small details, and u nid years of practice(mayb) to get that, but with a guitar teacher, u can get it easily. besides, u dunno which online tutorial is the correct 1, or should i say, suits u.

i learnt a LOT from my guitar teacher, than learning online. mebbe that's just me.

thx for replying my topic..

correct enteryourusername! I wan the teacher to point out my mistake cz I will nvr know when I do a mistake even tho a small 1!
Hope pg LYN sifus can recommend me a gud teacher!

u are right on this. but teacher would not be that cost effective to poor ppl like me. hehe~ recording both audio n video might also hlp. but be prepared to see how awful u really play. but maybe that's just me. lol~

If you managed to at least click on the link, you would have known how to find Michael;
If you managed to at least do a quick search of ARECA, you would have known how to find Kelvyn.

You can contact Michael through:
http://www.michael-one.com/contact.htm

And Kelvyn:

That's the point lar... Call him/them for more info... lol...

As for Kelvyn, everyone knows how good he is...
I'm not too sure what his teaching syllabus are though...

As for Michael, he's really a great teacher...
He teaches according to Trinity's Rock School exam...

Call them up to ask for details directly...

ermm.. i went to areca d.. i asked for the price.........
ermmm......Rm100 for group ... RM140 for personal.......OMG~~~~~~~~~

ahha. exactly right? so get my point? hehe. i think there are ppl who teach and charge bout rm70 or so per hour. not sure if its appropriate if ur thinking of taking exams.

By far this is the most expensive i ever seen loh.. mayb im katak bawah tempurung @_@

and michael charges RM80 onward.... i think is ok loh.. my expected 1 is RM70 loh............
michale said will gv me a callat nite time.. but i yet to receive his call....

I don't think Michael is able to teach in Penang at the moment as he has just recently signed a half-year pub contract in Alor Star. But yea, he's really a very dedicated teacher.

He will most probably recommend you to Kelvyn too. Kelvyn does private lessons at home too if I'm not mistaken, not sure about the charges though.

P/S: I apologize on behalf of Michael if he has still yet to reply your call. His workload is crazy recently: http://www.uglymen.net/2008/03/13/busy-busy-busy/.

Lolz.. he has jst called me ... and yeah.. he did recommend kelvyn to me...
I wonder whether he will charge me cheaper if he teaches in his home...
the ARECA center is wayyyyyyy toooo expensive....

Can you post the fees for the teachers that you've enquired here? I'm interested to know also.

Although he's not able to teach at the moment.

Kelvyn said I am totally new.. so he will be charging me RM90.. .hmmmm a great deal ???

That's about the market rate. How long per session and how many sessions per week?

ah.. i forgot to ask him the duration of each session..
he said there will b 4 sessions per month

so RM90 is market price huh............
then mayb i will go to him d lar... sobsob.. my wallet...my salary only rm450/month... then minus rm90.... @_@

I guess so. Because a couple of years back I used to take beginner classes at Yamaha, and they already cahrge around RM80 for 30min sessions, one session each week. For a private teacher, I think RM90 is pretty reasonable.

Which part of penang is he located?

Do you know how much Michael is charging?

He is living in gurney park.. jz beside G-hotel there
and michael is charging Rm80 onward depending on the level u take...
