I've been teaching Guitar since I was an undergrad. I began teaching in public schools in 1985 and have taught Guitar, Band, and Orchestra at the Elementary, Middle and High School level. My main instrument is guitar (classical guitar, folk, rock, blues, jazz, country, pop. etc.); I also play and teach electric bass (rock, jazz, country, etc.) and ukulele (all styles). I've taught students from age 5 to 85; I specialize in elementary- age, middle school, and high school- age students, but I enjoy working with adults as well. Read More

I always want my students to be inspired and productive, and I also believe that a student should never feel forced into practicing their craft. Read More
