I began my teaching career in Texas.  I have worked as a private guitar instructor at various music schools in Texas and in Southern California for the past twelve years.  I also enjoy teaching guitar, ukulele, and bass guitar to students in my home studio. It's been my privilege to also teach guitar and ukulele to students in after school programs.  In addition to teaching guitar I also worked as a technical theatre instructor for a non-profit community youth theatre for several years while living in Texas.

With younger students and those new to their instrument, I start with the basics, laying out simple chords, scales, and arpeggios, showing them how they are used in their favorite songs.

I teach combination of the Suzuki method and the Hungarian style (stressing the natural, comfortable, painless, tension free method).

My methods are the ones that works more for the student. For some reason some methods work better with certain people. One method can be tedious for a student and easy and fun for another.
