Positive reinforcement is key. I never learned from the mean or the overly strict teachers. In fact those teachers pushed me in the opposite direction of wanting to pursue music professionally. By going at the pace that is comfortable to the student, and praising them at every hurdle they encounter, the progress made can be exponentially greater than if the student is rushed to prepare a piece of music they don't truly care for in the first place.

As hard as I worked to become a musician, I have worked at least as hard to become a great music teacher. I love teaching music! It is something I cared about enough to open my own music school in Orlando, FL called Broadway Music Academy in 2006. I have taught for many established music schools throughout Florida, New York, and New Jersey. I bring this experience to every lesson I teach and continue to learn new and exciting ways to engage students. Read More

I can tailor my guitar lessons to the needs of every student. Practice is required but I prefer to call it FUN. If you practice daily I guarantee that you will notice progress and discover something new every lesson. I first started as a classical player to teach students about classical guitar. I can also teach students interested in improving their finger-style technique. For these students interested in Jazz, you have found one of the more encouraging teachers around who will show you both the tradition of the instrument and encourage pursuing your own style through writing your own compositions.

Teaching in general is extremely rewarding that way, watching thr student pick up after the teaching. Its a pleasure for both the teacher and the sudent. Read More
