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.

I focus on several different areas for every student, so that he/she can keep progressing in all areas of technic and musical knowledge: WARM-UPs, SCALES, MUSIC THEORY, SIGHTREADING, and PREPARED PIECES.

It's important to try to avoid that mindset, and keep it fun so that the student WANTS to pick up their instrument and play everyday. Read More

All of my methods are written by me. I have found that going with the typical books slows down the rate of learning, because no two students are alike. I have taken students with no prior experience and in the same time that they would finish "book 1" I have them onstage playing in front of crowds. Read More

Every student learns differently and at a different pace. It is my goal to help a student find their potential and even develop a passion for music in the process. I like to understand where a student is at in terms of goals, evaluate what it takes to accomplish these goals, and work with them using stepping stones if needed. The idea is to tailor my instruction to the goals of the student to help them achieve success and fufillment! Read More
