Instruments: Guitar Music Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

My teaching experience dates back to my High School years, as I began teaching private lessons part time 10 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students throughout my life for the last 10 years. I encourage regular practice on a consistent schedule, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that getting my beginner students learning the songs they want to learn can go a long way in helping students enjoy the guitar and motivate them to practice and continue to learn.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Drums Bass Guitar Keyboard Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

Most of my lesson plans are customized for each student, depending the style they are interested in, and the level that they are already playing. Generally speaking for beginners, I begin with teaching about the instrument (string names, frets, tuning, etc.). Then we move on to chords, starting with the easiest ones to play. Once they have grasped how the instrument and chords work, we continue on to melodies and simple 3 chord songs. Read More

So, make sure to listen and use the accompaniment techniques that I suggested earlier to help guide you.       Wrap-up I hope that you’ve enjoyed learning Viva la Vida as much as I did in preparing this lesson for you.

...or a little more fluid. If you need to play low B to G#, you can use the B spatula key to finger G#, requiring less movement. In keys with both G# and C# (such as A, E, B, F#, Db, Ab), I usually keep my pinky on the C# spatula key the whole time. I probably use the C# spatula key to finger G# just as often as I use the G# key, if not more often. It’s also good to know that you can leave the G# key, or any spatula keys, down the whole time you’re playing. This makes certain passages easier. ... Read More

...show), who will remember her as the singer for 70s soft rock group The Carpenters. However, she was a drummer before she was known as a singer, and was unusually able to drum and sing simultaneously without compromising either (a notoriously difficult task). Praised by legendary drummers Hal Blaine and Buddy Rich, her technical prowess was formidable. Sadly, Carpenter suffered from anorexia, and that ended her life at a very young age, but her death resulted in far greater attention to the disease, which was poorly understood at the time. The following video is from a BBC showcase, and while it is pretty corny by ... Read More
