I know that every student has a different learning style, and therefore, each lesson plan is custom-made.

My teaching experience dates back to the early 1990's. Since that time I have consistently taught private lessons while also working in the music industry as a professional guitarist, singer/songwriter, and consultant.

Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument.

For elementary school-aged students and younger who are just starting out, I will typically see if the student is familiar with, and a fan of, any classic or contemporary pop or rock music.

If not, then teaching the student familiar, single-line melodies, using them to build up to basic scalar concepts and toward a more classical-oriented education is appropriate. Read More
