I have been teaching professionally since 2010. I have worked for various music schools and have given lessons privately. I have experience in band coaching and teaching song writing and recording. I teach lessons out of my own recording studio, and I am comfortable working with students of all ages and skill levels. I consider myself to be great with beginners because I focus a lot on technique and how to make a clear clean sound on the instrument which is usually the first barrier a new student encounters.

I try to guide students as a positive role model committed to each students musicianship and over all well-being. I enjoy building self confidence in their ability to succeed. I believe that everyone is capable of performing music well. They simply need to be given the proper practice methods, technique, and motivation. We connect with others through music, as it is the universal language. What we learn through music helps guide us to be positively engaged in our communities, become happier and healthier individuals, and build stronger relationships. Read More

I began taking on some of my own private students around 3 years ago, and quickly fell in love with the idea of giving back to others what I have learned over my years of performing. Introducing students to the basics of guitar and their significance, as well as motivating and informing students of the importance of practice and persistence are some of the key elements I like to emphasize when teaching - especially with younger students.

I started teaching when I was in high school just to make a little bit of extra money, but I found out that I really enjoyed it. I also taught while in college. Upon graduating SUNY New Paltz I started teaching full time and supplemented this with gigs. By having up to 60 students a week I was able to work with people of various ages, abilities, and interests. I have also had the good fortune to have taught at The National Guitar Workshop, SUNY New Paltz, and Rockland Community College, as well as privately. Read More

You can expect my lessons to be fun and casual. My goal is to keep you interested, motivated, and excited about learning the guitar. There will be no stiff, boring repetition drills or endless scales to perfect. My lessons are meant to teach you new material, offer insight, correct technique, answer questions, and encourage progress. Your job as a student is to take the information learned during each lesson and "practice, practice, practice" during the week. Read More
