Hi! My name is Eric! I have a Bachelor's degree in music therapy from Temple University. I studied Guitar since I was 7 years of age with my strongest concentrations in Classical and Rock guitar. I also have studied percussion and Piano with a Jazz concentration in persussion. Music is the biggest piece of my heart. I started a music program at my primary job with the focus being on getting beginners good quickly. I teach theory and sight reading along with playing. There is always room for improvisation during the lesson and arranging music that the student enjoys so that they can also learn how to read it. I teach almost any age group up until the beginning of the advanced level.
Instruments:
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.
Instruments:
The number one question I asked my students is "what have you been listening to lately?" I find it very important to incorporate a students musical taste into the instruction. If we can gain the same musical progress working on a song they've never heard of, vs. something from one of their favorite bands...well, we are going to play the song they like. Every lesson will end with a new and realistic goal, and ultimately we will be working on giving the student the tools to be facilitate their own advancement.
Instruments:
I believe the establishment of a safe, judgment free environment is integral to the success of the music classroom. In my studio each student will be encouraged and supported on their musical journey. I look for the unique talents each student has and create opportunities for those talents to shine. Education is a key to our liberation from limitations put on our freedom and self-expression. I use it to help develop a critical awareness of the world and a passion to transform it.
Instruments:
I have taught guitar since I was 16 years old. I have taught private lessons and have also directed music ensembles such as a rock band summer camp. I teach students of all ages and all skill levels. I have taught everything from rock, blues, pop, classical, to jazz and beyond. I have performed, written, and recorded with artists and producers from Philadelphia, PA to Los Angeles, CA. That experience has given me a lot of knowledge in the music industry that I like to pass along to my students. I make sure that the student gets what they want out of their lessons and learns the music that they love to listen to. I also love sharing the music that I enjoy to students.
