I have been teaching beginner guitar students for just over 1 year now. I have taught students from ages 5 years old to 60+ yrs.

I believe that anyone can develop this skill, if they just dedicate themselves to lots and lots of practice, and book study. Read More

Are they looking primarily for a way to play along with their favorite songs, or would they like to get more invested in a deeper understanding of the technical side of learning music theory?

If the students are just interested in one specific thing then we focus on that. Read More

I think music making is the most appealing part of learning to play a new instrument. This is why I try to make every new concept Iteach as appealing and as fun as possible.

In this way my students are able to engage in music and have fun while they are learning. Read More

I truly believe that if students are happy and enjoying what they play they will want to practice and sound better. I encourage students to try classical but we will dive into a more modern approach.

I also have a strong music theory and technology background to really make sure they are amazed by understanding the world of music. Read More
