Most of all the rescources I use for my students can be found for free online. The most important things for any classical guitarist are: Mauro Giuliani’s right hand arpeggio studies, Matteo Carcassi’s Etudes, Fernando Sor’s etudes among exercises I’ve learned and created personally. Other great rescources are Scott Tennant’s Book “Pumping Nylon” and Pepe Romero’s book “La Guitarra”, which are about $20 a book. Read More

I really like using the Piano Adventures method for piano. However, I have used several method books for piano, guitar, and bass students before. Sometimes I do not require any books. It all depends on the student. I try to make a very personalized schedule per student. For adults, I also try to find out what the student is interested in and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lesson engaging and fun no matter their ability level. Read More

I cater each lesson to each individual student and their needs/desires, therefore no lesson or student has the same lesson plan. I can teach for different instruments and various styles, so those as well as the student's personality/skill level all factor in to how I will teach them. However, 3 things that I pretty much universally teach to all students of all styles are 1) scales, the fundamental building blocks of all music; 2) music theory, every style has it's own version of music theory and it is immensely helpful in understanding how to play it; and 3) learning songs that interests the student, because nobody is going to want to stick with music if they are forced to play songs that someone else wants them to learn.

I must inspire every student to learn and engage with the history of music and its effect on culture and society. To me, music is a healthy therapeutic outlet for emotion and creative expression. I encourage practicing every day, and falling asleep with the instrument in hand. I praise my students a lot and complement every accomplishment. I love building their confidence and knowing that my student is progressing faster than expected. Read More

We will begin by becoming acquainted: how does the student learn (auditory, visual, tactile, kinestchetic)? what are the student's goals (college training, worship arts, or just a hobby)? I mold my teaching approach to best serve the student. We will take teaching step by step, spending extra time wherever it might be needed. In regards to resources, we will use free internet-accessed and/or homemade resources. This also allows for a personalized approach. Read More
