Typically I like to using songs and common chord progressions and incorporate different skills we are working on into songs. This way the student learns a repertoire while learning skills. However this is up for debate and we can cover whatever the student desires. Often times teachers teach a blanket method using certain scales, chords, ect, expecting that this will miraculously result in the improvement the student desires. I am firm believer that this is not the case. Read More

Like I said above about my methods, my teaching style is all based around what YOU, the student, wants to learn, and YOUR level of knowledge/experience. If you want to learn a few songs to play along to and that's it, I can teach you how to. If you want to learn how to jam with friends and start a band, I can show you. If you want to really learn how to play and become a great musician, I can give/show/teach you everything I know. Read More

I believe that a teachers job is to pass on the joy and power of music.  In order to do that however the technical execution of music must be easy.  Through repertoire and exercises I emphasize a sound technical and mental approach so that playing the guitar is easy, fun, and a form of self expression.

I always start with new students by assessing their level. For most beginner students, I introduce open chords and basic single note playing, eventually leading to chord progressions and basic classic rock riffs. Beyond this, I always tailor my teaching to a student's tastes, as I know the best way to engage a student and keep them excited is to show them how to play their favorite music! If and when students become interested, I love to incorporate music theory into my lessons, alongside the technical aspects of instrumental technique. Read More
