Instruments:
Full time guitar instructor. Comes to you. Plays in current original and cover bands. Touring and studio and real world experience.
Instruments:
Since beginning piano lessons myself when I was seven, I have been sharing my love of music with everyone all around me. I've been teaching lessons formally for the two years since I left college, and it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Working with new students is always such a humbling experience, because it challenges me as a teacher to approach old problems with a fresh perspective. No two students are identical, so neither should their education. If one student loves performance and another one likes ear training, I like to cater their lessons according to their strengths. As soon as possible, I like getting students prepared for recitals, either by learning solo repertoire or composing their own pieces to premier. I'm currently accepting new students of all ages.
Instruments:
My teaching style is characterized by quiet confidence, progressive challenges, and realistic expectations. I do require my students to make a determined effort to practice every day. Beginning students should strive for 30-minutes of practice time daily; advancing students progressively more. Each student grows to learn what is easier for them, and what is more challenging. In this sense, I help each student learn to become 'their own best teacher'...maximizing their progress and their enjoyment. We all want to have fun in this challenging business of music, and we should remember, when we make music with our instrument we don't call it 'working'...we call it 'playing'!
Instruments:
My choices in books and other resources for the student are based primarily on the students' individual goals, needs, and interests. Generally, I approach the subject matter with firm but relaxed expectations, giving the students freedom but also requiring them to pursue a specified goal. This may include allowing the student to take a break from a challenging piece if necessary, to let their mind calm down and refocus while they practice a different piece with different requirements. For guitar, I prefer the students to use Mel Bay's Chord Book, as it is still the best I have ever been able to find. As the student progresses, I work to assess their various tastes in music, and work towards that direction, while introducing outside material they may enjoy, with the intent of eventually having a recital.
Instruments:
I am a very unorthodox teacher. I like to have a great time and tell very corny jokes but on the flip side of that coin i like to make sure we get work done, We will begin with the Basic of singing for the beginners and for the advanced students we will decide what style of singing you want to do.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
