For younger beginners I tend to use Hal Leonard's Guitar Method series to build a foundation of basic knowledge and fundamental techniques. From there I tend to focus on a custom lesson plan entailing a combination of music/exercises I believe the student will benefit from and enjoy coupled with whatever the student themself wishes to learn whether it's a genre of music, a specific song or something else.

I began teaching just over ten years ago at a music school and instrument retailer called The Music Place, where I worked for two years and had many long term students. It was a great experience but I left because the commute became too far so I decided to begin home lessons instead. This turned out to be a wonderful turn of events because home lessons can be much more open and relaxing since were not stuck in a little cube room half-way filled with a piano. My experience teaching for those first few years set the ground work for the methods I like to employ as a teacher. I found that self-expression found through music that the student enjoys, and then later music that they themselves create brings the most joy and magic to the students learning experience. I also have a knack for understanding where a student is confused when dealing with more abstract conceptual problems regarding music theory.

Hello there! My name is Michael, I am a trombonist/arranger/educator in the PA/NJ area. I love music and I love teaching even more. In 2015, I graduated from the University of the Arts with a degree in Jazz Performance and a minor in music education and in 2016, I got my master's in Music Education from the University of the Arts.. As a musician, I've had the opportunity to play at the Sydney Opera House, Carnegie Hall, all throughout Italy, and I've toured the U.S a good amount, playing in New York City, Syracuse, Rochester, Burlington, Boston, Oswego, Delaware, Washington D.C, Los Angelos, etc.
Instruments:
My teaching experience branches back about seven years informally, and two years professionally. In 2014 i began giving private lessons for both individual musicians and full bands in studio prep. I have taught all ages and skill levels with the main focus on improving skill levels, building instrument confidence, and simulating the creativity of new and upcoming song writers. I have been a ghost writter for multiple bands over the last year and have written a total of 100 original tracks over my entire musical career. But above all things the real experience needed to teach your student is keeping them both engaged in the lessons and there instrument of choice and that is were i can really shine. i find that having innovative and creative approaches to playing is what makes the difference between a Teacher and a personal music guide to take you through all of the wounderful steps of becoming a real musician.
Instruments:
Learning music can be fun! I try to find a middle ground that is both fun and gets to the heart of what makes music work. This includes music history, theory and listening to music by artists that the student admires. Although learning guitar is achieved mostly from hands on the instrument there are many valuable lessons that can be learned through encouraging the student to simply learn to listen to music, and, by listening I encourage them to be inquisitive and find out how and why the music they like sounds the way it does.
