Get to Know Sanel
Sanel Busuladzic
RCM Recognized Guitar & Music Theory Teacher.
While completing his RCM (Royal Conservatory of Music) Grade 8 education from Ontario, Canada he began teaching in 2007. He started teaching full time in 2012.
​
He founded his own small guitar teaching business to offer in-home guitar lessons for children and adults in Calgary. As his guitar studio expanded he added Skype guitar lessons (in 2012, before remote lessons were even a thing!) to his list of services. Currently, Sanel uses Zoom platform for online guitar lessons.
Sanel loves to teach students who are curious and desire to excel at the guitar. He finds fulfillment in seeing his students learn and understand how to play guitar while developing their passion for music.
Sanel is grateful for being able to do what he loves to do!
​
Teaching is his calling, it’s his gift to the world. Sanel is grateful to see the transformation and impact he’s having on each student every week as they diligently work towards developing their guitar skills, minds and hearts.
