Music Lessons in Coconut Creek, FL

Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar

My teaching experience dates back to when I was in high school, I've always tried to show that anyone can express themselves on a guitar and play a little music once in a while if it makes them happy.Throughout my career as a teacher I have always dedicated myself to sharing knowledge that leads you to achieve your own style and identify with your instrument. There is nothing more comforting than watching a student develop and create their own style or just play and enjoy what they do. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Drums Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I do like cover a lot of ground in my teaching. This is why we learn everything from to read, write music, harmony, rudiments or scales, warmup exercises, music theory, playing songs, improvising, and more!!! I use multiple books, techniques and resources acquired both through Berklee College of Music as well as others I've studied along the way. I always try to customize classes to the student's primary needs (learn songs, play in a band, learn music, etc). Read More

My experience with doing private lessons started when my last year at Bethune Cookman to earn a little extra cash in my pocket.

Once I graduated from Bethune Cookman I went back to my old high school and volunteered in the music department. Read More

Instruments: Voice

My teaching experience has all been one-on-one coachings in different styles such as Musical Theater, opera, oratorio and pop styles. I can really hear the potential in each voice and have been through every stage that a singer can possibly imagine. I started off as someone who had absolutely no sense of pitch with less than an octave of usable range and over the past three years have now gotten to the point of riffing, chest-mixing in the fifth octave, whistle tones... etc. Read More
