Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Keyboard, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

For beginners on guitar and piano, I start by introducing a basic understanding of music theory, so the students are comfortable with the fundamental mappings of notes and intervals. From there, I teach chords, scales, rhythms and song composition. I work with my students based on their individual musical preferences and desires -- whether you want to learn how to play your favorite songs, how to write your own songs, or how to play lead lines and solos, I'm here to support and nurture your craft!

After the basics are mastered, I'll introduce the skills needed for a first recital. Read More
