Overview:
I am very passionate about music and I love to share music through teaching. I truly love to see people just enjoy and have fun while playing music. I started playing guitar when I was 11 years old and music has been a huge part of my life ever since. In 2012, I graduated from Musicians Institute in Los Angeles, CA, where I lived and worked as a musician and music instructor for 6 years before moving to Denver, CO in November 2016. I have had unforgettable experiences performing, recording, and teaching with amazing musicians from all over the world and I'm very excited to continue my career in Denver.
EXPERIENCE
I started teaching guitar lessons in my hometown when I was 16 years old and was teaching at local music stores when I was 18. After graduating from Musicians Institute, I taught in-home private lessons in Los Angeles. I consistently had a full teaching schedule and gained a lot of experience through teaching students of all ages and skill levels. One of my main goals is to make sure my students are having fun while learning as I believe this is key to maintaining an interest in music and motivation to practice. I encourage my students to listen to all styles of music and I love to hear what they enjoy listening to as well.
METHODS USED
For beginner students, I start with some fundamental basics but I always try to keep the information relatable to each individual student no matter what their skill level. I take a very individualized approach for each student and tailor the lessons just for them depending on what the student is interested in and their skill level. I like to teach by demonstrating information through songs that each student enjoys. The only books I tend to use are empty music books so I can write out specific music and instruction for each student. Having a regular practice schedule is very important so I always write a recap at the end of each lesson so students know what to practice and to keep track of progress.
LESSON STYLE
It is very rewarding to see students develop a passion for music. It will stay with them for the rest of their life and I strive to achieve this with all of my students. I believe it is very important to develop great relationships with my students as it will keep them more motivated and comfortable. I'm an easy going person and I like to keep my lessons relaxed and fun. I always encourage students to show me new music that they discover and all of my students are free to text me any time with questions. I even send quick videos if a student has any confusion outside of our lessons as I always want to make sure my students are confident in understanding the information.

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.
