Guitar Lessons in Helsinki

Hello! Did you recently established in Finland?
Well, congratulations, this is a fantastic place to live.

Today is the right time to learn how to play guitar or maybe to finally be serious with it.
Guitar lessons are the safest and the shortest way to get you where you want.

My name is Roo Chapus, I am a professional musician, entrepreneur and a guitar teacher in Helsinki. I moved in Finland in 2003 and since, I enjoy the life here, the beautiful landscapes and the rock culture! That’s why I’m enthusiastic about seeing you here and interested in guitar playing.
I’ve helped, motivated and taught hundreds of different levels guitarists from around the world. Some of them enjoy, in the privacy of their home, the satisfaction to play songs such as Hotel California, Under The Bridge, Stairway To Heaven or Fade To Black, to name a few, while others perform gigs regularly. They all share the same feeling to be at the right place with guitar.
This is what matters: feeling great about yourself ! Playing that cool song, not just the two first chords.

Are you looking for a guitar instructor with a proven track record and traceable references?

I know how to proceed guitar practicing in the future and now I enjoy playing guitar as one of my hobbies. 🙂 Thanks! ”

“These lessons have furthered my playing BEYOND belief. I can honestly say that in the short period time that he has been teaching me I have learned what I thought would take years in months. Roo clearly knows what he is doing, and he has been doing it for a while…
So, if you truly feel like you could be doing more with guitar, take a lesson with Roo, after one lesson you’ll be able to tell that the road to greatness is LONG, but with the aid of his lessons, you’ll get there A LOT sooner then you would’ve ever imagined.”

“The guitar classes i’ve taken with Roo have been greatly useful! I had never played the guitar before so I started as a beginner and after 10 classes I am able to play the basic chords.
We covered different styles, blues, rock, pop…and I could manage to play a lot of songs. Moreover, the one song I suggested (Fire – Ed Sheeran) him at the beginning.
I got to play it at the final class, which was a real success!”

“Roo is a very good and versatile instructor, virtuoso yet. It is easy to work with him. Progress demands practice but results appear soon! The teaching goes according my music tastes and he has always good tips such as recording with a band. By learning with Roo I increased my accuracy and play more relaxed. I feel my play gained in diversity and finally got beyond pentatonic scales!”

“Roo on tuonut kitaransoitoon taas mielenkiintoa. Itse oppineena olin j‰‰nyt kiinni vanhoihin kaavoihin, mutta nyt Roon opeilla olen saanut t‰ysin uuden n‰kemyksen kitaran soittamiseen. Parissa kuukaudessa olen huomannut huimaa edistyst‰. Soittaminen on nyt tarkempaa, nopeampaa, monipuolisempaa, ja ennenkaikkea hauskaa.”
Ari Nuutinen, Helsinki

“Roo opettaa oppilaan ehdoilla. H‰nen opetustyylins‰ on rento ja riitt‰v‰n vaativa, jotta edistymist‰ tapahtuu. Roo lˆyt‰‰ nopeasti kehitett‰vi‰ asioita ja antaa harjoituksia, joista olen kiinnostunut, mutta en edes osaa pyytää. Parin kuukauden aikana improiluni on kehittynyt ja itsevarmuuteni soittajana kohentunut. T‰st‰ on hyv‰ jatkaa.”
Tuomas Lassinantti, Helsinki

“…I’ve taken a few lessons throughout the years and learned quite a bit. After a while you get tired of playing everyone else songs. But when i had the lesson with Roo and mind you he’s a very well rounded musician in all areas of guitar and music, he opened up a ton of possibilities to get me on my way to songwriting so a word of advice, don’t throw your money away anymore start your web cam lessons with Roo AND YOU WILL SEE RESULTS!”

I charge 55€ for a private one hour lesson. After the first lesson, in order for me to set teaching programs and ease my book keeping, I ask my students to commit on sets of 4 lessons (196,00€) to be held within 3 months and agree the lesson’s cancellation policies.
I teach in Finnish, English and French.

My teaching studio is located in Helsinki 00240, Uutiskatu 2.
