I truly enjoy teaching Guitar & Bass as well as all aspects of performing and composing music. I believe that learning to play the Guitar or Bass should be fun and rewarding, and I have developed an exciting, multi-faceted approach to teaching. My method is based on the student getting a feel for the Guitar and Bass (even with limited information), developing confidence and being able to learn on his/her own, making it possible for them to make the decision on what direction to take their music.

While these are difficult, they open up a whole new world of possibilities. Several new major and minor chords are unlocked, and it leads way to more advanced shapes. Read More

Although I have my own methods and "prescribed" teaching materials, I love to keep a dialogue with the student. I always ask what their goals with music are, as I will then tailor the lessons accordingly.

Or, I've had students who want to learn how to play a specific style or song, and those lessons can be much more mellow. Read More
