UPDATE: The last of my teaching guitar lessons ended in 2013, due to the schedule of a new full-time job, which then only lasted 5.5 months.

But although I received notices for more than a thousand different potential students since then, never a single student was located anywhere even remotely close to me (i.e they were all at least 1.5 to 2 hours drive away from me).

I enjoy sharing my knowledge of music with others and exposing students to new techniques and musical concepts.Every individual has his or her own goals that they want to accomplish on the guitar.

I believe that learning is both an internal and communal process. Every living being has the potential to learn to do amazing things or acquire incredible skills. However, to learn something means to make it apart of oneself. In the case of music, many a jazz musician spends years trying to memorize a plethora of songs. The irony is that without having someone to play with and truly experience the music making process, the musician will never internalize what he or she is learning. Read More
