Guitar Lessons Arizona

Instruments: Guitar, Voice, Trumpet, Bass Guitar

I've been teaching since 2005:  Privately with students in their home or my studio, with brick-and-mortar studios, and with online lessons services (like Musika).  It's most important that my students have fun learning their instrument, but I also emphasize daily practice and work on the fundamentals of whichever instrument he or she is learning.  After all, if you don't work on the fundamentals, then you won't be able to play your instrument any better.

I am a recent graduate from Arizona State University having earned a Bachelor's Degree in Music Performance studying the classical guitar. Prior to that I was a self-taught electric player playing at local churches and playing with local bands before beginning a formal education. Read More

My teaching methods are dependent upon the goals of the individual student; I implement a variety of different method books, including Hal Leonard, Mel Bay, Berklee Press, Shearer Method, and Parkening Method.

For students who desire to learn more contemporary styles, tablature and chords are used to teach different songs and techniques that the student may be learning. Read More

I believe I am a friendly guy at heart, so I tend to be friendly with the students. There are times where I have to tell them, for example, "You haven't been practicing.". But I try my best to do that in love while encouraging them when I see even the smallest improvement. I feel as though the key is to play as much as possible. That can be hard to do when you feel like you don't know how to play. Read More
