Nothing is more rewarding than experiencing a student develop a style and passion for guitar! I would say that my style of teaching leaves a lot of room for growth, but doesn't neglect the fundamentals.

There are several methods books that I like to work with; Read More

Music has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember! I started playing the electric organ when I was about 7 years old.

When I was in 3rd grade I started playing cello... in 5th grade the trombone.... in 8th grade the drums.... in high school the bass guitar.... and later it was the guitar, violin, viola and ukulele.

I am also the creator of a unique method called "The Seven Secrets of Jazz and Soul" which emphasizes the importance of using simple/easy-to-understand language, even when teaching the most difficult of concepts. I also believe in the importance of "coaching" as opposed to lecturing and try to minimize reading, writing and one-sided lecturing during the lesson.

I use positive reinforcement to help students get better at playing the guitar. I make the student feel comfortable learning and make the lessons fun. I give them plenty of chance to show me what they know. I have them playing notes and chords in no time. I start out with simple chords and move on to more advanced chords. Read More
