As we advance into soloing, we'll add more information around fretboard knowledge and visualization techniques. I will always explain "why" we are learning something, whether it's a particular technique or topic and "how" we go about accomplishing it. For Intermediate level students, I'll take music theory a little deeper and we'll gain an understanding of different styles and progressions such as the 12-bar (Blues), 1-4-5 (Rock/Pop) and 2-5-1 (Jazz) progressions in popular music along with soloing techniques.

Music education is essential to lifelong development and enrichment in everyday life. That's why nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music!

Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. Read More

I had been fairly brave helping other students. and even those younger than I, to do things at church or at school. But, I discovered, accidentally, through a competition in our high school band program, that I could actually teach.
