I began teaching in 2010 and quickly realized that there is nothing better than to able to take what I know and pass it on to others. I have years of experience when working with children, young adults, and Adults. I try to encourage a practice schedule thats corresponds to the realities of other commitments outside of music and I also try to encourage creating a personal schedule for setting musical goals and life goals.

My teaching style is overall based on building skills, technique, and general awareness in individualistic lesson settings, and then applying those skills in hands-on exercises, be them exercises in composition, performance, recording, or anything else! I encourage students to collaborate with their peers as much as possible, and often bring more than one student together to play, write, and jam in a double or sometimes even triple lesson setting. A community of friends is essential for a young musician to be able to build a relationship with music based on excitement, fun, and a shared love of the musical experience. Read More

My name is Scott, and I am a driven, passionate and expressive lover of music. I picked up the guitar at a late age (15) and for 20 years have toured the country performing and recording. I am driven to teach people about the guitar because it has been the most consistant and positive force in my life. I have seen all of my dreams become reality and if I can help anyone from children to the elderly find that missing thing in their life or to achieve their goals? Read More

I typically do not make lesson plans but go off of what a student wants to learn. I can make lesson plans upon request. Usually, for in-person lessons, we will play together and then talk about our playing. I will provide recommended exercises to do in between lessons. I will also recommend music to listen to as well as exercises to do in between lessons. One of the most important things about music is to practice at least 10-20 minutes every day. Read More
