For small children, I like to teach from the same book I first learned how to play guitar from. But, for older students, I like to base our lessons on their interests. Generally, I will ask a student if there is a song they really like. If so, we will learn the song by ear, or by sheet music for those interested, and break down all of its pieces. Then, once we understand the inner workings of the music, we will apply it to different situations. Read More

It's a rewarding feeling to be a part of their growth and witness their progress firsthand. Seeing their confidence blossom as they navigate the complexities of an instrument or explore the intricacies of music theory is truly inspiring. One of the reasons I've grown to love teaching is the opportunity it provides to connect with students on a personal level. Each student comes with their own unique musical journey and aspirations.

I graduated from Musicians Institute on Music and Guitar Performance, awarded the Synester Gates Scholarship. Having the opportunity to play with the masters such as Steve Vai and led a solo with his band, Paul Reed Smith, Scott Page (Pink Floyd), Carlos Alomar (David Bowie), among others, taught me things for the real life as a musician.

Instruments: Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

For beginning and intermediate guitar students, I typically use Hal Leonard's Guitar Method Complete Edition by Will Schmid and Greg Koch. This book will cover technique, music notation, theory, repertoire, fingerboard knowledge and music fundamentals. It works for children and adults. For beginning students who are learning classical guitar, I use the Aaron Shearer's method which includes detailed lessons on theory, form, fingering, technique, sight-reading, and etc. Nevertheless, I usually use many other books for guitar lessons since I always take into consideration the needs and goals of my students.

...If you’re new to the piano, the idea of learning how to play chords might seem like a difficult task. To someone unfamiliar, the keys on a piano probably look strange, disjointed, and intimidating, but what you might not realize is that the structure of the keys on a piano represent the simple basic music theory concepts that govern every instrument in music. When a teacher teaches a guitar student about music theory, they have to look at the keys on a keyboard to learn about things like chords, scales, and intervals.

Wonderwall Chords Guitar Tutorial

... Oasis’s mega-hit “Wonderwall” was written by Noel Gallagher in 1995. Though it didn’t win Best Rock Song at the Grammys that year, the song has proven to have incredible staying power and is still prevalent in popular culture today, over twenty years later. “Wonderwall” is a fantastic song for beginner guitar players to learn because its chord voicings and catchy strumming pattern are so satisfying. The song’s intro and verses begin with a 4-chord progression that has you keep your ring finger and pinky on the same notes for the entire section. The Wonderwall chords are found in thousands of other pop ... Read More

The peer pressures associated with (or against, for that matter) are strong in the middle school and high school years. However, if a student decides to pick up an instrument and give it a try, they are going to have to find some sort of motivation, whether intrinsic or extrinsic, to keep going. With that found motivation comes a certain level of self-discipline to keep going. By learning an instrument or ... Read More

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm.
