I first try to discover the student's knowledge of the instrument and find out their current level of experience. At that point, I can design a structured lesson plan around that. I'm very patient so I try to learn the student's pace and level of endurance. I always ask to see if the student has any issues with something they have learned in a past lesson. The guitar can be a challenging instrument due to its physical challenges. Read More

I also teach classical fingerstyle for classical sheet music for the guitar. I have taught many children and adults toward a level by which they are able to express themselves musically and reap the beautiful reward of creating music with their guitar and voice for a lifetime.

Positive reinforcement is the key to keeping a motivated student, and I encourage them in anyway possible making myself available to them throughout the week even after the lesson is over.  Read More
