My teaching experience dates back to my college days as a music major. I have given music lessons for over forty years. I also have played all kinds of professional music venues for over 40 yrs. I have performed with Sonny & Cher, The Byrd’s, Dion Warwick, Little Anthony & The Imperials. I have also appeared on the following TV Shows: 9th St. West, Dick Clark’s American Bandstand, & The Robin Seymour Show. I am the Co Author of the song “Ali Baba”, and one of the original members of “Dave & The Customs” Surf Band. I have also worked in business as a manager and understand people very well. Music is Divine.

I use Alfreds guitar method books for guitar and bass.  Piano I use the Bastian and others.  I teach from both my song books, and by thier cd or audio tracks.  I teach each student individually and move them forward to performance level. I teach how to read music and music ear training.  Theory training is also available at lessons as needed. Once I get the student past the basics on to intermediate level, I can listen to cd or audio recordings and reproduce the instrumental part on the spot. I am a fluent note reader as well which helps me during lessons..
