I started gaining experience as a teacher over 5 years ago when I started teaching lessons to my freinds, some of who are now involved in musical projects of their own. I continued gaining experience in this field during college, where I would consistently meet with fellow students to instruct/tutor them outside of classes. I believe that through my experience I have been able to provide lessons that make learning both fun and interesting for the student. Read More

My teaching experience began as a Teaching Assistant at Florida State University where I taught undergraduate guitar students. After graduating from Florida State University, I moved back to Massachusetts and taught guitar both privately and through local music schools in my area. I teach all styles of guitar, including electric, acoustic, and I specialize in Classical Guitar, and all ages. Using the Suzuki Method, I have taught many children as young as age 3. Read More

Well, the indiscipline, the environment of family violence and the social insecurity that lived in that refuge, became what is evident in the previous image. It was the first time these children had seen a Cuatro.

I keep my lessons low pressure and laid back. This is a fun hobby for my students and I try to keep it that way! At the same time, I work with the student to set goals to keep them accountable and making progress. I don't make students perform in front of anybody else unless that is a goal of theirs to work towards. Depending on the student's level, having me playing along with them at times is also something I use to help the student feel more comfortable. Read More

I have been teaching privately for over ten years. During my time at The Berklee College of Music I took classes in pedagogy, and every teacher I have had the pleasure of studying with has functioned as an invaluable model for how to teach, and the many different ways to articulate and illuminate the nuances of playing the guitar, and playing music. I also have experience teaching large and diverse groups of students and have worked as a clinician at music festivals and music camps such as North Hampton, MA's 'Django in June' where I was hired to teach in 2009, 2010, and 2012.

I started out teaching "house call" style lessons, driving ALL over the area, just to gain students and experience! This was while attending graduate study for Music Education as well. Once I built up a good following, mostly via word-of-mouth, I was able to teach both out of my home (upon purchasing my baby grand piano which is currently in my studio today), and then moving into a shared studio space.
