Charles "Chuck" Worrell  first started teaching guitar as a teenage performer on his local nightclub circuit. His passion for the guitar was contagious - resulting in non-stop requests "Teach me to play like that?!" For those with a real yearning to play, he was always happy to oblige.

Coming from a family of teachers, he appreciates the importance of taking the time to really understand what each student wants to gain from the experience of playing guitar. After an introductory/evaluation lesson, each student moves on to a custom tailored lesson plan  which tracks a path to their unique goals.

​His teaching style,  patient and relaxed, yet thorough and resolute, incorporates what he has found over the years to be most effective in make the guitar experience both enjoyable and rewarding for students of all levels... 

A Veteran  Guitar Instructor...

Intermediate and advanced students benefit from Chuck's in depth exploration of improvisation, advanced rhythm guitar, and integrated lead/rhythm technique.

Students who want to perform on stage, write and record original music, accompany themselves or other vocalists, or function effectively in an ensemble also also receive guidance in these facets of musicianship.

Chuck's students also have access to his discounts at one of the major NYC are musical equipment retailers.

His students are empowered in a myriad ways to find their voice on the instrument, and have fun and grow musically along the way. ​

As a semi-professional teenage guitarist, he taught younger students and beginners, and also worked with older more experienced musicians who wanted to benefit from his well known specialty in advanced  lead guitar techniques.

​

Since moving to New York at 19, and expanding both his musical palette, and his range of expertise on the guitar, he offers his students even more versatility. His years of experience performing all types of music on stages around NY, everything from: funk and soul; rock and metal; blues and new orleans brass;  to: r&b, pop and hip-hop; country and jazz; eastern music and fusion; is an invaluable resource for his students

​GL will be available to tutor students interested in focusing on the styles of the classic and modern jazz guitar greats, as well as the ever popular Bossa genre. He is a gifted guitar teacher whose passion for guitar music is balanced by his patience as an instructor. He has a unique ability to explain the intricacies of comping, soloing, ensemble play, and song structure clearly and effectively, and we look forward to giving our students the additional benefit of his expertise. ​. ​
