Elliot
Guitar and Theory
Elliot began playing guitar soon after his 14th birthday when he bought a remarkably bad quality guitar from a dingy store in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. He taught himself with youtube videos and various online resources until later getting official lessons, and gaining technical skills. Since that time he has honed his skills through tertiary study in guitar, and is currently one semester away from a completed Bachelor of Music. Elliot can play a wide variety of styles, and has a strong theoretical understanding underpinning his playing. He hopes to be able to help students to discover the joy of playing music, as his teachers helped him.
