I teach the student to maintain an open mind of a beginner, even if they are advanced students. I create personal programs for each different student based on their temperament, their interests, and the reasons they want to play guitar. For materials, I always begin with positioning and releaseing tension with simple exercises that resonate with the student's interests. Many times I will create exercises to target a specific weakness or difficulty, or take generic exercises and tutorials and make them into something more interesting that approaches the student's while targeting the bigger goal.

If a student is missing that piece to their musical character, then that is where I come in, to stoke the flame, and focus it. Read More

Hello! I am a guitar player and composer who is very passionate about both the art of playing guitar and writing music .  I like to have a balanced blend of sound (pun intended) technical guitar study with the fun of playing tunes and jamming.

For Every student I start the same. It all starts with technique. If you have a great technique you can play anything with practice! with my much experienced students I don't go too forward with technique but try to find their weakness in their technique to strengthen it. For the Beginners, after the technique we go into what to play. with my adult or more experienced musicians I find out what they are interested in then go from there. Read More
