Hello! My name is Kayla and I have been performing, recording and training for more than a decade. Music has always been a part of my life and I have a bachelor's degree in business and music.

I prefer Mel Bay's Children Guitar Method, Book 1. Be sure to get an edition that has a CD or online audio to go with the book. The most recent version has online audio and video.

Again be sure to take advantage of purchasing the edition which includes a CD or online audio so you can play along as you read the music. Read More

In the first lesson I sit down with the student and we just asses goals and what motivates that student to play I like to create an exciting environment when it comes to playing your instrument cause after all it's hard work but it's not work it can be fun and should make you want to come back and learn new things. Been doing that for 7 years going on 8 and have never lost a single student to my methods. Read More
