For beginning students it is important to learn standard techniques such as chords and techniques, I use songs and beginner method books based on a student's learning goals, age, and talent level for lesson materials. For intermediate students I teach sight reading using the Melodic Rhythms for guitar book by William Leavitt and jazz music theory. Read More

With any student who is in a beginning sort of stage with their musicality, I will start off by teaching them basic techniques, simple notes or chords(dependent on the type of instrument), and rudimentary knowledge of the notational system.

I do this to not only make it as exciting as possible for the student, but to help them achieve a vision they already have for themselves. Read More

This keeps it fun and interesting, and sometimes presents a challenge for me if their tastes are a little eclectic. Read More
