Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My teaching experience started many years ago with a few students who were interested in learning jazz and improvisational music. I have taught group classes and one on one now for 25 years. I have much experience working with beginner and young students making their first attempts at playing an instrument as well as players already proficient at the guitar who want to brach out and learn new things. I prefer to teach students who can commit to a regular scheduled weekly lesson as Ive found the consistant work on an instrument is what really produces the most positive results and enjoyment for the student.

In Middle school, I began tutoring classmates in mathematics and realized the importance of making the intangible, accessible and that not everyone will innately use the same approach, method, process or visualization to arrive at the solution. In High school I tutored German and Casteon, and it became obvious that "How" we hear is extremely important to "what" we hear, and, are able to replicate. In college, I tutored Music Theory and Voice class which broadened my awareness of what other people want to do and get out of the musical efforts and experiences. Read More

Truly enjoy seeing students seeing students get it, musically and become successful. I teach as if I am training my replacement so I can attend a concert and hear them play; specially when I am too old to play but can still hear a good concert. I have played with many groups in the United States (including Hawaii and Alaska), Central America, Jordan, much of Europe (France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, England, Scotland).

I use the Suzuki method which is an ear training method that trains the students to play familiar songs without having to read music. I teach them to read music afterwords.

I use these techniques to get a feel for my students and then personalize the lessons to what suits their particular needs. Read More

I have been teaching for 20 years, with my own business for 10 years. My teaching style is very student centered. This allows me to focus on their unique abilities and interests while building a solid musical foundation. Individualized teaching is my passion. I adapt my teaching style to each students' learning style and then teach them how to express themselves individually through music. I still use traditional methods to build good technique and practice habits, but allow my students to bring their own interests' into our lessons. Read More
