I like to see what type of music you like and base my lessons around that specific band or style. I will make transcriptions of a song that you've always wanted to learn and we will go over it together.

I teach by example and from music books to help establish the basics in musical learning. I am an instructor who believes that the best way to learn is by watching and learning the instructor, and then having the instructor demonstrate for the student.
