I am a kind, patient man who believes that learning to play music is it's own reward. I struggled frequently while I was learning the guitar, and I don't believe that there is a right or wrong pace to learning.

My style is simply to encourage students as they progress and address difficulties in a positive and and constructive method. Read More
