Guitar Lessons in Medina, OH

Instruments: Guitar

For young beginners, I usually start with simple note reading so that they can begin playing tunes right away. When children realize that they can play "Happy Birthday" or "Jingle Bells" after just a couple of lessons, their interest level increases.

This gives me the best idea of what direction we can plan for. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my early 20s where I began teaching private guitar lessons part time while completing my college degree.
