Its a great jumping off point to work on finger placement, rhythm and picking; all the while we get to learn a song, too! My intermediate students have focus heavily on musicianship. With these types of students I often play (or jam) with them during lessons. This gives them the chance to start really listening and to use their skills to function as a musician.

One of the unique experiences I offer is the opportunity to try multiple instruments in a single lesson.

My goal is to help each student build that strong foundation, then guide them as they dive deeper into mastering the instrument that speaks to them most. Read More

I think every student should get as much out of their lesson experience as they want, whether that means a more casual experience where you're not practicing too much throughout the week, or holding my student more accountable if they express more ambitious goals.
