With all of my students I use the music that they love to develop lessons that are fun and effective. Any type of genre or song can be arranged in a way that is approachable to any skill level and will contain many necessary skills needed to play music. Every student learns in his or her own unique way and I strive to accentuate my students personal learning styles to give him or her the best chance at success. Read More

I always start with new students by assessing their level. For most beginner students, I introduce open chords and basic single note playing, eventually leading to chord progressions and basic classic rock riffs. Beyond this, I always tailor my teaching to a student's tastes, as I know the best way to engage a student and keep them excited is to show them how to play their favorite music! If and when students become interested, I love to incorporate music theory into my lessons, alongside the technical aspects of instrumental technique. Read More

My teaching experience goes all the way back to when I was in high school. I was teaching my peers outside of school, giving them lessons, helping them with music theory, etc., and I have helped more than one of them go on to music school with me. Ive been teaching guitar lessons on their own for 10 years, starting by teaching beginners and working my way up to more advanced teaching about 5 years ago. Read More

As your teacher, my desire is to pass along my passion for music. Passing along my knowledge and helping you develop you skills is just one way to help you find your own passion for music. My lessons reflect this philosophy. I set realistic goals for every student every week. I have expectations for practice times and progression through my methods; however, I never get too bogged down in this. Read More

I had my first student when I was in middle school (around 1993). Jumping forward a few years later, I started teaching again around 1998 while attending Bekrlee College of Music. At that time I was only teaching partime but quickly escalated to fulltime once I graduated in 2001. At my peak, I was teaching between 40-45 students weekly. I currently have 30 students of all ages and levels. I cover several styles depending on the students interests. Read More

My teaching style really came about from my experience teaching students who didn’t have the confidence to reach out to instructors that they did not know. In working with these students I found out that above all else the true driver in a student’s success is their passion and excitement level. So it quickly became my mission to make sure that that never faded. My teaching style is 100% positive and I work to make every student know that during their time with me it is a “no judgment” zone.

Hello there! I'm Kyle! I love teaching and love to see people flourish and learn a new skill or dig more deeply into an exsisting passion or interest. Music has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. There were always instruments around my house growing up as my father is a musician. I love passing on what was given to me. Music is such a gift and I am so happy to be able to enable others to give that gift. Read More
