Instruments: Piano Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Anyone can learn when they know that they're in a supportive learning environment! My students are encouraged to make mistakes, and we find out together what can help in fixing those mistakes. I acknowledge my students' progress in each lesson so that they gain the confidence to keep moving forward. In each lesson, I am focused on meeting students where they are at, and my teaching is very adaptive. I love to engage students in their learning quest asking questions that prompt their learning and understanding of music. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I am new to teaching but I have worked as an organizer and choir leader in my high school and college, giving me the experience I need to have an organized curriculum for new students that is interesting and actually impactful. I aim to teach younger beginner guitarists how to best pick up the instrument and learn by playing the songs that they actually like! Breaking them down so they understand the music, but also feel like they're learning the necessary skills to pick up and play any song they want in the future and perform confidently. Read More

Piano Chord Chart: Basic Chords and Intervals

...If you’re new to the piano, the idea of learning how to play chords might seem like a difficult task.

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
