WELCOME to SIMPLY GUITAR!

What Is It?

An easy, unique and fast way to learn how to play the guitar!  Just that simple!  You can do it!

Why Simply Guitar?

 Because it works.

 Over the years, I have taught hundreds of students as I perfected the best techniques that help beginners learn quickly.  Blending my family’s culture and experience with my own teaching journey has resulted in a unique and proven method that will have you playing for family and friends in no time!

 What and How Will I Learn

We’ll start out slowly with simple strums and chords.  I believe repetition is the most efficient route to learning just about anything.  How fast you learn will be completely up to you and your commitment.   As your fingers get tougher and stronger, we’ll learn more chords, strums, techniques, and picking patterns that can be used in many styles of music such as:

  • Classic Rock
  • Country
  • Pop
  • Christian Rock and, if you like,
  • Mexican Classics

Who in the World is Lilli ?

 Lilli (that’s me!) comes from a long line of fabulous guitar performers and teachers, having taught and performed,  in the United States, Mexico and Europe.

Beginning at the age of 11, I began assisting my mom with her lessons.  I then began learning the signature family teaching methods from my mom and my (Aunt) Tia Maruca (both amazing performers and teachers) and I  learned all they could teach me.  Aunts, uncles, my cousins and now our children all join in to make family gatherings  fantastic musical fiestas!

I am a church choir director and teach guitar through our school.  This guitar program is one I began over 24 years ago and it has grown bigger each year, producing good guitar players and happy musicians.   My students put on a raucous show each spring that has people dancing in the aisles!

LET’S GET STARTED!

  1. Are your classes online or in person? I know basic chords and strumming patterns but I’m out of practice.
    Is there a way for us to figure out what level would be best?
    Thanks!

    • Sorry I missed this message last month. My site is online video lessons. We could do a facetime lesson, to determine your level of ability. Or, if you are anywhere in the San Antonio, TX area, we could arrange private lessons.
      If you have any interest, please email me at, [email protected], or, text or call me at 210-241-7666.
      Thanks, Lilli Soto
