As students progress, I encourage exploration across various genres. Drawing from my diverse experiences, I guide students through the nuances of different styles, techniques, and interpretations. For more advanced students, I emphasize creativity and personal expression. I often incorporate improvisation exercises, composition challenges, and collaborative projects. This not only nurtures their musical individuality but also prepares them for real-world performance scenarios. I believe in a student-centered approach, where open communication and feedback are key. Read More

I have been teaching Private Lessons since 2008. I began in California (where I am from), teaching guitar and electric bass to younger kids in the high school and middle school I went to. Then in 2010 I went to Berklee to focus on my studies, developing my skills in performance and in education, while always performing and teaching privately on the side. Since Berklee, I have given clinics and masterclasses in numerous countries, and deepened my love for teaching and my methods. Read More

I want to foster a love and understanding of the instrument in my students.  Therefore, I always make sure to pace my lessons with each student according to them.  This means I set realistic goals for them and help guide them to accomplishing these goals themselves.  These accomplishments will help fuel the desire to progress, and make my students hungry for more.  By finding and encouraging the musical interests of my students, I can keep the lessons both fun and informative.

It still seems that way, however I have expanded my business towards building and repairing guitars, amplifiers, and effect pedals. Read More

I always start with what the student is interested in. I find that learning music comes much more naturally when the student is inspired and entertained by what they are trying to learn. I come from a long tradition of learning music by ear. I believe this is the best way to develop true musicality. While I very much see the value in sheet music, I believe that reading music without being about to play it by ear is like being about to write and write but not speak and understand English.
