About Stephan
Hi! My name is Stephen Kane. I have a master's and professional degree in classical guitar with a concentration in guitar education from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, where I was an assistant guitar teacher. I've been studying and playing guitar for 23 years. I've been teaching privately since 2009 and I enjoy seeing my students expand their knowledge and technique while nurturing their passion for the guitar.
I recently moved my teaching studio from San Francisco to Berlin and am currently accepting new students of all ages and skill levels.

Stephan is a remarkably skilled and knowledgeable classical guitar teacher and I'm so glad to have found him! I definitely benefit from his deep experience with every new piece I learn or trouble shoot. Stephen insists on staying true to the music you're trying to play, but his manner is so relaxed and accepting that learning comes easily. If you want to learn classical guitar, I highly recommend Stephan!
-Fiona HumphreyStephan was my classical guitar teacher for the last three years, and I’m so grateful to have had him as a teacher. He is a fantastic musician, is super organized, and is always so kind and encouraging. He’s also incredibly experienced and knowledgeable, and I’ve learned so much in my lessons with him. I can’t thank him enough for helping me become more confident with the guitar, and growing from a complete nervous wreck to being able to perform in student recitals and try out my own musical ideas.
I highly recommend Stephan as a teacher!Stephan hat mir geholfen, meine Technik zu verbessern und musikalischer zu spielen. Er ist sehr kompetent, geduldig und professionell. Stephan hat immer geholfen, herausfordernde Teile zugänglich zu machen, indem er Dinge aufschlüsselte und hilfreichen Input gab. Ich kann ihn wärmstens empfehlen, egal ob Sie anfangen oder bereits einige Jahre auf dem Buckel haben!!
When I first started guitar lessons with Stephan Kane around 1.5 years ago, I felt trepidation that as a senior (72 years old), I would not have the physical or mental capability of being able to master classical guitar. With his artistic knowledge and patience, Stephan has guided my playing to a point at which I now believe I can master this art form, albeit it will take time.
Stephan is a consummate professional who has made it possible with my erratic schedule (I am out of town quite often) to regularly take lessons from him in a timely manner and also progress from beginner towards intermediate level. I can see staying with him until I can reach an advanced level.
I heartily recommend taking lessons from Stephan. It will be well worth your time and effort.Über klassischen Gitarrenunterricht für Erwachsene.
Ich lerne seit der Pandemie klassische Gitarre bei Stephan. Sowohl für den Schüler als auch für den Lehrer ist es immer eine Herausforderung, den Unterricht für Erwachsene zu arrangieren.
1) Ein erwachsener Schüler hat keine Eltern, die dich zum Üben ermutigen / zwingen, und wenn es keine Erfolgserlebnisse gibt, ist es leicht aufzugeben. Stephan macht mir den Unterricht erfolgreich attraktiv. Ich habe mir viele Musikvideos angesehen und würde sie gerne auf der Gitarre spielen. Anstatt mich zu zwingen, die wahren klassischen / technischen Stücke zu lernen, half er mir, meine Lieblingsklavierblätter zu arrangieren, und ich begann schnell. Ich habe sogar Videos für mein Spiel aufgenommen und es hat mir wirklich Spaß gemacht. Durch das Behalten der Erfolgserlebnisse macht der Unterricht sehr viel Spaß.
2) Meine Hände sind besonders klein und ich habe einen wirklich kurzen kleinen Finger, fast die Hälfte meines Ringfingers. Ich war mir am Anfang nicht sicher, ob ich Gitarre spielen kann. Stephan ist sehr erfahren und hat mir geholfen, die beste Position für mich herauszufinden. Er kann während meines Unterrichts schnell die Indexierung auf dem Blatt anpassen, ohne Zeit zu verlieren. Jetzt mache ich Fortschritte bei La Catedral.
3) Ich habe noch nie ein Instrument vor den Leuten gespielt, und wie viele andere wurde ich dabei leicht nervös. Stephan hat mich sehr ermutigt und er gibt regelmäßig Gitarrenkonzerte für alle seine Schüler. Wenn ich mit ihnen zusammen spiele, kann ich sagen, dass mein Selbstvertrauen wächst. Aus meinen aufgenommenen Videos kann jeder meine Fortschritte erkennen.
4) Er ist sehr flexibel in Bezug auf meine Zeitpläne, persönlich oder online, morgens oder am Wochenende.
5) Er stellte mir viele berühmte Gitarristen vor und ich sah mir ihre Konzerte an. Diese wahren Künstler zeigten mir eine fantastische Musikwelt. Ich habe es wirklich genossen.
Alles in allem, warum keine Einführungsstunde mit Stephan versuchen und die neue Reise zur klassischen Gitarre beginnen?
Stephan I have worked with several teachers and he is the best. He does live or via zoom.
