Bass Lessons in Norco, CA

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My teaching style is very free like, I like to make sure you are using your ear when you're playing. When I say use your ear it means active listening to what is being played. When you are a bass player you and the drummer are locked in as a unit, I will go more into that in a lesson. Hearing chord progressions and understanding where to play and when to play is the difference between a good player and a great player. Read More

My lessons are based on a transfer of enthusiasm. When I get my students to hear what I hear and feel what I feel, there's nothing more rewarding!

Their goals are my goals and we work together to achieve them at a pace I can assess by their progress. Again, I don't teach music, I teach how to play the instrument, big difference, greater results! Read More

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. Hal Leonard's can be a good tool. I can use to many different books. Also I can write down specific exercises special for the student. Some times a student can learn faster without a book. Read More
