My teaching can be broken up into two columns: the craftsman and the artist. The craftsman column is all about chords, scales, and technique. The artist column is all about musicality and expression. I believe that learning through songs you love is one of the best and most fun methods of learning and understanding an instrument. The musical devices that are used in all your favorite songs are universal to music, so you'll be learning techniques just by playing along to your favorite songs! Read More

I believe that with 30-45 minutes of daily practice time, any student can see noticeable, continual improvement. Read More

Besides having an extensive career as a performer, I have always maintained 10-30 private students ranging from beginners to professional musicians.

As a University student, I began teaching at local music schools and found that it's a wonderful way to share knowledge and experience, and also to be around youth and become aware of how differently young people now experience music and acquire knowledge.

David's style has been honed through decades of experience teaching beginner students. Patience and keen obseration skills are critical to being an effective music teacher.

No other teacher provides the student with more access and support in between lessons, including video tutorials, audio samples, PDF files, etc... Read More
