Instruments: Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I started to teach during my studies at Eastman. With the help of my YouTube channel, I was able to have the opportunity to teach fans who had wanted to learn with me. Since these fans were all around the world, I had to teach them with the use of Skype. Then and there, I had started to teach fans of all ages online. I also had the opportunity to teach guitar to locals of my hometown in Texas where I met up with people of all ages and taught one on one private lessons. Read More

I first began taking private students in the 1990s, and continued to teach privately through my undergraduate years in the early 2000s. Though I stopped for some time to pursue artistic and professional ventures in music, I recently returned to the teaching realm, and am exciting to take on new students. In addition to private brass lessons, I have taught music in public schools through various non-profits and, above all, enjoy the light that comes on in a student's eyes when he/she "gets it." It is why I do what I do. Read More

For beginning students I usually start with Hal Leonard's beginning guitar. But if they want to just play music, I will als teach them how to read tabs and chord charts. This enables the student to start playing songs right away. As the student progresses I will give them solo music pieces as well, songs and exudes to use for performance. Eventually, the student will progress to scales, soloing, and comping. Read More

Im a dedicated and passionate creative with years of experience to share with my students; Im empathetic and good at teaching you the way you learn. I grew up playing blues and jazz in venues and clubs around the Bay Area as a teen and later graduated from Berklee College of Music with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Electronic Production and Design, where I had the opportunity to dive into the world of production, synthesis and electronics while simultaneously studying guitar as my principle instrument.

My teaching experience goes back to the late seventies where I started to teach kids in the neighborhood the guitar. As I got older and more knowledgeable about jazz and blues, I taught on a part time basis shareing what I was learning through my own studies with my students. Now many years later I have an excellent knowledge of the guitar and want to teach students how to completely understand it. Read More

I am an exciting young Mexican-American guitarist and composer, began playing guitar at the age of 13. In 2014, won the international, Lowden Young Guitarist of the Year competition for performers and composers under 25, organized by the Irish guitar company of guitars, Lowden. As the winner, I traveled to Lowdens Northern Ireland workshop to pick out a guitar (choosing a Richard Thompson signature model) and to perform alongside Lowden signature artists, Jon Gomm and Thomas Leeb, at the Lowden 40th Anniversary Concert.

I always begin with an informal conversation to get to know your interests and music goals are. Depending on the instrument and objective, I might follow traditional curriculum, such as Hal Leonard or Alfred Music. In reality, every student has a different way to approach the music. My job as a teacher is finding out what makes you tick, and use that to cultivate your passion and develop a study practice. Read More

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I was naturally drawn to the guitar since I grew up with my Dad playing guitar and listening to good old rock and blues records. The guitar tones just drew me in like a magnet. There is something deeply therapeutic about the sound of a nicely over driven guitar/ amplifier. And the range of tones, from clean/ acoustic to hard-crunching power chords creates a world of opportunities for musical expression. The guitar is one of the most versatile instruments. It captivated me from the very beginning. I struggled with ADHD as a child and adult, and often found guitar to be the one thing that I could truly keep my focus on...
Talk about therapeutic..!?
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think the hardest thing may be getting started and making good notes and chords for the first time. There will be pain in the finger tips, mental fatigue and self-doubt... The student must have the mental strength to overcome such obstacles. And the desire must come from within. It is always difficult to master skills, if the lesson presented is too far ahead of the students abilities. For example, mastering movable bar chords can be very difficult for beginners. But with practice, over time, proper hand-positioning and strength will develop and each time you practice something it sounds a little better and becomes easier to play.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
There are many ways to have a productive practice session. Generally, the student should gather his/her lesson materials, pick-up the guitar, tune the guitar, and ensure proper posture and positioning, to get started. Also, this should done in a quiet area, free of distractions, just like when they study schoolwork or homework. I often stress the importance of remembering and re-practicing older lesson materials, so as to not forget the material but continuously add to your knowledge base while retaining all that you have learned.
Playing songs is also a good means of practice. If the academic side is thought to be boring and painful, students can benefit from learning and playing their favorite songs. The repetition will help with chords and rhythm and they will be putting in the work to improve without even realizing it as work, because it is fun.
The goal is to inspire them to want to play and learn. For some students this may be the best way.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I suppose my Father inspired me to play by having guitars and playing while I was growing up. I saw how much fun and enjoyment he had when playing music alone or with friends. I began taking guitar class in Junior High School and playing along with my Dad and his friends. I think it was the challenge of mastering guitar itself that inspired me to keep working and learning. I didn't even think about it. It seems I was naturally drawn to it. I had the determination to learn what to do and then practice it until it sounded good.
I also learned that playing songs over and over for fun is also good practice. The repetition will help you master chord fingering, chord changes, and rhythm patterns. Studying the composition of a song will give you insights to what chords sound good together and what kind of dynamics can be used over the course of a song. With a general understanding of the basics, you can take what you've learned and begin to create your own sounds. The sky is the limit for musical creativity and that's what truly inspires me.
