I tend to emphasize basics and fundamentals, as most teachers do. Developing facility, dexterity, and muscle memory is very important. I use simple exercises at first. In turn with various other exercises, confidence will gradually develop. Learning to play chords (rhythm guitar), and transitions between them is vital, to almost every style of guitar. Rhythm and awareness of the tempo and meter (beat) is also important, especially if the student will play music with others. Read More

I like to start my lessons with basic introduction to the guitar as an instrument and its components. String names, how to tune, and how to change your strings are included.

(unless it's avant garde, or experimental) We will go through basic chords one by one and chord structures. Read More

I began teaching my friends and family for fun in my early teens. My mom is a teacher and she taught me the basics of guitar at a young age.
