Instruments:
I begin with finding out what musical background the students has, what they hope to achieve through lessons, and how much effort they are willing to put into their lessons. Then I develop a specific plan for that student to work towards their goals.
Instruments:
I will typically start with Hal Leonard's Guitar Method. It is one of the most commonly used books to learn from and spans from the very beginner up to some more advanced techniques. After the beginning lessons I will gauge what the student is interested in and develop the lessons from there. I can also help students prepare for solo recitals as I've performed them myself. I offer both half hour and hour lessons depending on how much the student can handle practicing each week. I can teach from my apartment or I would be willing to travel to you. Online lesson via skype would also be an option.
Instruments:
I am open to whatever a student seeks to learn through guitar lessons. The more attention I give to a student's interests, the more motivation I see in their abilities. I feel that giving students goals helps them learn at an increasingly consistent rate.
Instruments:
Teaching style: having the student focus on simplicity...focus on practice, practice, practice....focus on enjoying the lesson, not dreading it. I will assess the students' needs simply by having a conversation first. Then ask some basic questions about what music style is appealing to them. Most important is that whatever the student's level is, just feel comfortable, relaxed and look forward to this wonderful journey that is called "Playing the Guitar"! Keep in mind, my schedule is flexible. I will provide a schedule below but it can vary based on students' needs. Time slot and days are flexible.
Instruments:
My teaching experience covers a number of musical environments. I worked for local non-profit music educational program, Creative Life Support, where I taught songwriting, recording, and performance to underprivileged and homeless youth in Pittsburgh. I have my own private students which I travel to their homes to study, and work for a teaching studio in Mars, PA. Music has always been a special and amazing part of my life, and sharing my love, curiosity, and excitement on the subject is a passion of mine. An important part of my teaching process is make sure the student is having fun and finding some sort of passion in the material. Regular practice and a consistent schedule will be emphasized in order for my students to progress. Whether or not a student has performance goals will shape the style in which I teach to help them both reach their goals, and musically progress.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
