Assisting my peers so we could sound better via musical corrections, this would build our confidence levels and the moral throughout the ensemble.

My teaching approach is to base all of my lessons on each student's individual musical tastes and goals. So if a student is interested in building speed, we'll work on alternate picking exercises, or right hand patterns for classical and fingerstyle students.
