Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I've been teaching for a total of three years now. In that time I've had many different students and picked up on many different teaching techniques as a result. My experience is mostly with late elementary school students but I have also taught middle school and early high school students as well. I would consider myself most proficient in teaching those with little to no experience, but I truly enjoy teaching those who already have goals in mind when they first walk through the door as that is the starting point from my perspective.

I am a professional guitar player and instructor living in Pickerington Ohio. I have retired from road work and now plan to dedicate all of my time to teaching. I have spent most of the last 20 years teaching 80 plus students a week. Though I did not attend college I started playing professionally at age 17 and have played Rock, Blues , and Country all over the United States ever since. I have studied the works of Don Mock, Ted Greene , Howard Roberts and Pat Martino in the guitar world as well as Barry Harris and others in the Jazz world . Read More

Each individual learns at his/her own pace in his/her own way. Getting to know my students with a free consultation helps me get an appropriate lesson plan together. Once started, I am always thinking about how to fine-tune things as we go. I like to cover a variety of material during our practices, but make sure to send you home with your own folder of print-outs for personal reference. Read More

I began teaching years ago and have pursued it off and on over the years. I have taught in students homes as well as my own home. I encourage everyone to try to learn an instrument as an outlet for creativity. Practice is as deep as you want to make it, but if you are looking for serious improvement and development I suggest at least 30-60 min a day. However, any amount of playing and practicing is encouraged! Read More

My teaching experience began while attending college and has been on and off with my performing schedule but I believe the performance has help me focused on teaching from real-world experience. I therefore dont like to spend a lot of time during lessons on topics a student may never use. This also helps the student hold interest in their lessons. I approach teaching from the students perspective, whenever possible and try to always emphasize the musical style they are most interested in. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Harmonica
Shortly after graduating from Otterbein University, I became a certified substitute teacher for three consecutive school years (2012-2015). While pursuing my career in music, I also greatly enjoyed my time in the classroom. I was certified to teach grades K-12 and worked at dozens of different school districts in the Columbus, OH area. My experience in these various classroom environments, teaching an array of subjects, helped me develop a comfort level with students of varying backgrounds, interests and age levels. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I highly advice practicing quality over quantity. One can practice a phrase 20 times but if he or she does not understand how the phrase is contrived, he or she will not conceptualize it. Practice slow, and have a process to learn the piece of music (example: look at the key signature, what time is it in, what accidentals outside the key are present, chunk out each section). If you miss a note, stop and go back. It is so easy to let mistakes slide. this is specific for intonation but sing the phrase of music and then play the piece.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If the child displays a natural talent for music, it is important to act upon that, even if it is learning general music, which can later translate to an instrument. For example, I teach Clarinet beginning at the age of 10-11 years old. If my student is only 8 but can hold, and play the Clarinet, I will start at that age. It is also noteworthy to say one shouldn't start a student with an instrument too young because his/her lungs and mechanical movement are not developed enough and can cause permanent damage later in life.
When will I start to see results?
Results are gradual, meaning they do not happen overnight. Progress and improvement occurs through a consistent practice schedule, qualitative practicing and a deep desire to learn. If a student is struggling through a passage of music or something fundamentally based, that means he or she is learning to break a bad habit or learning the piece of music. It is important to set up a positive and encouraging environment where success can happen. If need be, one should track a student's progress and in turn be able to see the results of hard work.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes, I did. When I was in Band my freshman year in high school, I was in the top wind ensemble, but the only freshman Clarinetist. Once I saw how this band performed and my band director conduct, it lit a fire in myself that ultimately inspired me to pursue music. From there, I began taking private lessons and honestly enjoyed them, along with playing Clarinet solos. I thought it was really neat to watch my band director conduct and teach myself all about music which later inspired me to pursue my bachelors and later my master's in music.

I'm not particularly wanted to learn other people's songs. The main reason I want to learn these instruments is because in my current dream, I want to become a songwriter.
Abha
My 7 year old son wants to learn guitar and I was wondering if you have daily guitar lessons for summers. I was looking for a class around noon may be 3-4 days a week.
Kunihiko
I made some songs and covers for acoustic guitar, and i want to play it perfectly. I feel missing something to be 100%, so i am looking for some professional help.
