Beginning her musical journey at the age of nine, Arezoo later earned a Bachelor’s degree in Classical Guitar Performance, developing a strong foundation in technique, repertoire interpretation, and ensemble playing. She is also a certified instructor of the Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) guitar curriculum, preparing students for practical and theory examinations across all levels through structured technique development, musicianship training, and comprehensive exam preparation. 

Arezoo specializes in classical guitar education for children and youth, designing engaging and age-appropriate learning pathways that make technical development accessible and enjoyable. Her method integrates storytelling, musical games, creative exercises, and step-by-step technique building to support focus, motivation, and expressive playing in young learners. She is also the author of instructional materials for children, combining visual learning and imaginative elements to enrich early musical development. 

In addition to her classical background, Arezoo holds a Teaching Certificate from Berklee College of Music and has completed multiple professional courses in jazz guitar, songwriting, and contemporary musicianship. These studies enhance her versatility as an educator and allow her to incorporate creativity, modern techniques, and stylistic awareness into her teaching when appropriate. 

For intermediate and advanced students, her lessons focus on tone production, right-hand articulation, phrasing, stylistic interpretation, and performance technique. Her ensemble coaching encourages listening skills, musical communication, and stage confidence. 

At Farnoosh Academy, Arezoo’s teaching philosophy centers on building strong technical foundations while nurturing each student’s unique musical voice. She believes classical guitar offers a powerful balance of discipline and creativity, and her lessons aim to inspire students to experience both the artistry and joy of the instrument.
