I love seeing my students gain passion and find success when they learn a riff or a chord, because I know how I felt when I did it. It inspires you to learn more. I like to use the method of telling them something they did fantastic, something they could work on and end on something they really did awesome on. I want to know what inspires the student and what they want to play. Read More

My lessons start with the student. I am not interested in making my students play music they themselves do not want to play. For this reason I always start with students by asking them their goals and what music they get excited about. After these things are identified I then get right into the music. I do not waste time going over chords or scales if it will not help my students play the music they want to play. Read More

My lessons will be pretty focused on music theory so that, in time, the student will be able to make their own music with ease. For new beginners, I'd likely ask which song they wanted to learn. And then I'd teach it to them, while also explaining scales, how to build chords, and the theory used in the song. Because my favorite part of playing music is improvisation, that's my go-to goal for the student, but I'm always willing to adjust my teaching methods accordingly. Read More

Though my focus is always on application, theory believe it or not can be fun to learn as well. Through a simple process taught to me, I present theory on one sheet of paper that provides all the information you will ever need to know. Now of course volumes of reference are available and one could spend a lifetime and still never get to all of it, but my teaching method provides a sound foundation in theory that makes application easier and most importantly gives students the language ability to talk concepts as well as apply them to their instruments.
