I like to see what type of music you like and base my lessons around that specific band or style. I will make transcriptions of a song that you've always wanted to learn and we will go over it together.

Each student I teach knows that they are not to simply become a copy of me- instead, their goal is to become their own unique creator that is unlike anyone else. Read More
