My Experience with private guitar instruction began when I was attending the Jazz Program at MDCC. I worked in a small music store and realized that teaching was one of the best ways for me to share my love for music with others. The excitement of seeing someones eyes light up when they figure out a new chord, solo or song was very motivating to continue my teaching career. Once I moved to Boston to attend Berklee, with limited time I began teaching privately lessons from my home. Read More
