For students interested in classical guitar, I like using Christopher Parkening's guitar method; it contains a great deal of useful information and diagrams, as well as a great selection of beginner pieces.

I spend time at the beginning of our first lesson getting to know about you and your goals.

My number one goal is to help my students accomplish their musical dreams, whether that be a classical pianist, a pop singer, the front person for a rock band, write songs or compose music for film, or just sing their favorite song of all time, whatever it takes, I will make sure that we get to the musical destination. It's important that each student progresses at their own pace. I always ask my students for one long term goal and one short term goal so that we can cast vision for where we are headed, map out the challenges along the way, but also celebrate the goals that we accomplish especially in the short term.

One of the most effective ways I support steady progress is by setting realistic and achievable goals at each lesson. These goals provide clear direction and help students understand what they are working toward, whether it involves mastering a new technique, improving rhythm, or completing a piece of music.
