(Please don't bid if you can't easily provide multiple online videos of you playing bass and/or teaching bass. I need a teacher - nothing else. Thanks!) I’m a mid-late bass beginner and can play a few simple-ish songs (e.g., Can't Hide Love, Diamond Girl, Leave the Door Open, Can't Touch This, James Brown stuff). Know major and minor chords. Prefer R&B and funk from the 70s-80s, but open. My goal is to learn proper fingering technique, slap-and-pop lines (not the priority), and develop a strong rhythmic feel that locks with the drums. I'm a lefty and don't plan to change that. Seeking [login to view URL] musicians (possibly open to an onsite visit every once in a while. Your place/studio or my Georgia location, whichever is best.). Goal is to build a small collection of songs and stop flying fingers. Grow to solid Intermediate level within six months aggressively. Play in a band. Learn modes. All lessons must be delivered live over online video calls so we can review posture, finger placement, and tone in real time. I’m open to whichever platform you prefer (Zoom, Skype, Google Meet, etc.) as long as screen-sharing and high-quality audio are possible. What I need from you: - Focus on what I want and then help me reach that goal - Include applicable songs for each lesson Please include a brief outline of your approach videos of your work.

Hello, How are you? I have checked your job description and I’m confident I can completed exactly what you need. Your focus on 70s-80s R&B and funk, tight slap-and-pop, and left-handed technique fits perfectly with my experience in live video-based music coaching. I have extensive experience with AI content, music pedagogy tools, and sound‑focused programming skills to enhance technique evaluation during lessons. My approach includes breaking down posture, rhythm drills that lock with drum grooves, and adding a relevant song each session, from classic R&B pocket lines to foundational funk tracks, so you build a song collection while eliminating flying fingers. We’ll use whichever platform gives you the best audio and screen-sharing, and each session will be tailored aggressively toward reaching solid Intermediate level within six months. Please send me a message so that we can discuss more. Thanks Taras
