For most students, especially beginners, I use a combination of the Berklee materials, including Modern Method for Guitar, as well as my own teachings. I like to get my students to a level at which they can actually make/play music first, using their current favorite genre of music. The sooner they can make sounds on the instrument that resemble something close to "music," the sooner they'll fall in love with the instrument. Read More

My teaching method is entirely student driven. Every student has different goals and different styles of learning. Because of this, the "cookie-cutter" approach many teachers take are ineffective. I take the time during the first lesson to ask the student what their short and long term goals are with their instrument, and from there I can start laying out a lesson plan. As I have more lessons with the student, I can observe their learning style and adjust my teaching approach accordingly. Read More

My teaching experience started back in High School. I was in a music class and every month I would get to teach kids how to play the ukulele. In college, I started teaching private music lessons and worked at a local music shop and I would teach people how to play songs before purchasing an instrument. I taught students of all ages ranging from a 3 year old little girl to a 68 year old retired mailman. Read More

For Guitar I feel that it is best for everyone to start out learning classical and then branch out to other styles. However, I , as a teacher want to teach everything if I can , while at the same time really focusing on what the students goals are in learning to play and what music gets them excited about playing. So I will use standard guitar teaching materials such as studies from Sor and Giuliani , or Segovia scales , or certain method books by Hal Leonard , Scott Tennant etc...but each student is different and my approach is focused on tailoring everything to each student specifically.

I taught general music, choir, piano, and band in the public schools. I also worked in an after school youth orchestra, teaching woodwinds. Before that, I taught guitar to friends and some beginning students. I also helped my classmates who were learning guitar. I have mostly worked with beginners, and some more intermediate students. I have taught in the classroom setting and small group lessons, and some one-on-one lessons. I feel my greatest strength is teaching beginners and elementary aged students. Read More

When will I start to see results?
Like they say Rome wasn’t built in a day so of course it’ll take more than a day to see results but the average student will begin to see results in a matter of weeks depending on how diligent and focus they are on their instrument. One student usually hit the six month mark there on a whole Nother plane level then when they first started most can see a drastic improvement in their playing by that point and are greatly satisfied with my lessons. You have to put in the work with whatever you do in life to see results results are based off of your ability to want to achieve a higher standard.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
There are many different teachers and instructors and players that have inspired me over my lifetime with playing guitar. I can’t really say there’s been one specific teacher that has brought me into the mindset of inspiration but it’s definitely more than one. Names such as Frank Gambale, Paul Gilbert, Joe Satriani, Sebastian Bach, and Mozart to name a few. They are great dedication and passion with a hint instruments definitely inspired me to push my limits and take my plane to the next level I always looked up to someone who was honest and diligent with their instrument that’s what matters most to me.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
You really have to base it off of the child’s willingness and ability To want to excel with their instrument. Most children will automatically show interest in something they love and an eager hungry mind to want to succeed. As long as they display these traits then they are definitely ready to start taking lessons and bringing their skill level up to a higher standard. These are all things to think about before getting your child involved in taking lessons. You never want to force your child to do something that they don’t love that’s the key.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
An effective practice comes from retaining the knowledge and effectively using it in real situations with your instrument. It’s one thing to learn but it’s another thing to learn and to use which is what I am to provide students with these lessons. I always suggest that my students use their knowledge they retain in songwriting or live performances because that’s the best way to really know if what you’re learning is being affective. Effective practice must be done diligently every day if you’re really looking to see the for maximum results of my lessons. This applies with anything in life!
