I take the student at his/her own pace. I try to be sensitive to the needs of the student not just his/her musical needs but his/her academic needs as my ability to continue working with the student depends upon his/her academic success. I will suggest a basic routine at home: Housework, Practice, Study, Leisure, Bedtime. Both for Practice and Study I recommend organizing subject matter in order of least favorite to favorite which gets the least favorite out of the way and saves the best for last. Read More

We will set goals together, track their progress and they will feel challenged and pushed at times, but empowered with the knowledge that anything can be overcome with patience, persistence, and practice.

I also have much experience teaching students with unique characteristics such as ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, Asperger's, etc. Read More

For students who are just beginning to learn guitar, aside from teaching said students how to properly hold the guitar, I provide fun single note exercises from open and first position to help them get comfortable with the top of the neck. Also teaching the students different parts/sections of the guitar (example pickups, body, neck, fretboard, nut, etc. For more advanced students I assess their skills and playability to see what they know or don't know and then work from there.
