I want my students to gain the most experience with technique and musical concepts early on in lessons, so theres always time to enjoy what they have learned. In my teaching, I am always focused on transmitting the technique and knowledge for sophisticated playing, regardless of the style. What I take the most pleasure in is trying to carry forward as much of that as possible while minimizing confusion and sense of trouble in pursuing music. Read More

My teaching method is... You got to knowthe rules 1st, before you can then break the rules.This is how you develop your own unique style.And its what separates the Pro Players from the restof the pack. But even if you don't want to play professionally,maybe you just want to learn a few chords, licks,songs, for yourself, or to impress friends.That's ok too! I welcome every level and style.

For all of my students beginning through advanced I have my own curriculum of technique building studies. Combined with that I have my own curriculum of style studies and songs which include many genres of music.
