About your guitar coach

Learn!While!Having!Fun! Choose and learn whatever songs/music you prefer to learn or improve upon (your own songs and music included, if applicable), and I will learn them for our sessions. My guitar journey began uniquely at the age of 19 while taking Piano Lessons. I then became the lead singer of a band named Tension at the age of 24, who performed at such venues as Mutiny, The Underground Lounge, and the Elbo Room, as well as for parties and a wedding. I still play to this day with the guitarist James and his brother Seth I have also written and performed my own Spoken-Word rap and poetry since I was a teenager to this moment . From Classical to Rock, Pop, Opera, R&B, Rap/ Hip Hop, and everything in-between..I am well-versed and have written and performed many songs in each of those genres. I(We) will begin by personalizing y(our) lessons based upon your goals and expectations.. while building both your confidence in yourself as an artist and performer... and in me.. as an instructor, brother, and friend. Thanks for your consideration, !Nicholas (Nicky P) Pancotto!

James C.
Nick's Joyful Kindness, Encouragement, Willingness and Ability to Teach me exactly what I wanted to learn is why I'm sticking with him. He is GENUINELY kind and interested in My Goals 1st.. Our lessons are personalized and based around my goals as a performer and person!
James C.
Nick loves people and music and introduced me to piano playing a couple of years ago. With just a few lessons from him, I was able to understand the piano and music on a higher level. I'm now writing full songs on the piano with more confidence than ever before!
Mari B.
Nick's playing ability grabbed our attention and then, we witnessed our daughter, who had never played before; sit down at the piano with Nick and learn how to play scales and chords in a matter of minutes with such joy and enthusiasm.
Seth F.
Nick has taught me, not only, how to play the piano; he also encouraged and then, started teaching me how to sing and I'm now confident to incorporate MY VOCALS on the tracks I produce! Thanks, brother.
Mike P.
Nick knows so many songs and can sing in very many diverse styles. It's more like we just hang out and he shares his gifts.. My lessons are great because they are fun and are not rushed.
Ellory B.
My name is Mari.. Ellory is my daughter and she loves having lessons with Nick.. he sings with her too and writes his own songs and music which she loves and is inspired by!!
Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI will learn what YOUR goals and expectations are and will care deeply about them. So, I'll write them down and develop a plan which will be completed upon our next meeting. We, then, will begin our 1st lesson learning and practicing keys and chords. I'll then write down at least two songs that YOU want to learn and perform, and I will either know or learn it for our NEXT lesson.
Lesson 11+Choosing, Singing and Perfecting your Favorite Songs!
Lesson 4-10SINGING SONGS!!! and working through every part as we go along, to increase your confidence and dynamics.
Lesson 2-3We will refresh what we've learned from the First Lesson and decide whether to move on or continue with the First, as it is the foundation. If we are prepared to progress, then we'll choose two songs from your list, and I will walk through them with you vocally.
Advanced training plan
Youth players
Working with kidsFun is NUMBER ONE! I use a game- like style and methods to keep the little ones engaged and encouraged.
Working with teenagersI ask them which songs our styles that they prefer and base our lessons upon that style and will learn and incorporate these songs into our lessons.
What you need to bringWear: Your choice.. casual clothes.. Your style! Bring: ...Peace, Enthusiasm, Ideas, Songs you would like to learn.. Expectation for growth and fun!! Feel free to bring your own drinks/food.. I will always provide filtered water to drink. F.Y.I. I have two female cats named Lilly Leona and Layla Liana, who are so very sweet and playful. They may or may not be walking around/nearby us during our lessons. If you would prefer not, I can secure them in the bedroom while we have our lesson in the living room.
