My curriculum varies significantly depending upon the experience/age/aptitude goals of the student. For example, a self-taught adult that aspires to play blues or classic rock cover tunes in a "garage band" type of situation doesn't really need to spend much time if any learning to read music.

I truly enjoy teaching Guitar & Bass as well as all aspects of performing and composing music. I believe that learning to play the Guitar or Bass should be fun and rewarding, and I have developed an exciting, multi-faceted approach to teaching.

However, I know there are several guitar students who don't necessarily want to learn how to read music which I am fine with teaching. Read More
