My teaching began in high school, where friends and friends of friends would hear that I played and ask me to teach them.

My philosophy of teaching is to help the student play the music that he or she wants to play and give the student a practical understanding of the guitar and music theory.

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with the Alfreds Basic Piano Library method and theory books. Ideally, a new song is assigned every week and the student will practice daily. During lessons we will review the piece that the student has practiced, I will provide feedback, and we will move forward to a new skill. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. Read More

I am very good with various personalities of students with various learning modalities. I don't use the same method to teach all students, because everyone of them is unique. However, every student I have had is with good rapport with me, because I respect all of them, no matter how young they are. I don't see myself as their teachers but rather a friend who helps them with what they are learning. Read More
