Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I have been teaching musical arts for quite some time now and really enjoy teaching and seeing my students grow in skill and confidence. Before teaching private lessons and then in a local music school, I was in a working Rock and Roll band, playing mostly original songs. I have played from Pawtucket, Rhode island down to the Outer banks in North Carolina. Of course, we played the majority of our shows in Philadelphia. Read More

I began teaching as soon as I felt I had a comfortable grasp on my instrument(s) as a teenager in high school. While in college I briefly stopped teaching but resumed before graduating, and have been teaching in home lessons again since completion.

But with that consistent practice will come a sense of pride and motivation at what has been accomplished and the desire to continue. Read More

If they are a little older, I will use music that they like to teach how music theory and fundamental skills makes up all the musi they enjoy. We will often learn songs that speak to them and I will use their favorite genres to curate new songs to teach and show them new material and how it relates to their instrument. Read More

My teaching experience is quite extensive and highly varied so I will state the most important aspects in a mixture of short paragraphs and lists (for the sake of clarity). I have been teaching seriously and professionally since the age of 13.
