For beginning students, especially children, I typically start with foundational exercises and simple songs to help them build confidence and a solid grasp of guitar basics. Once theyve mastered the fundamentals, I introduce solo pieces that suit their skill level and prepare them for their first performance, whether its a small recital or just playing for family and friends. For adult students, I focus on understanding their musical interestswhether its J-pop, classical, or another genreand tailor my lessons to keep them engaging and enjoyable. Read More

For beginning and intermediate guitar students, I typically use Hal Leonard's Guitar Method Complete Edition by Will Schmid and Greg Koch. This book will cover technique, music notation, theory, repertoire, fingerboard knowledge and music fundamentals. It works for children and adults. For beginning students who are learning classical guitar, I use the Aaron Shearer's method which includes detailed lessons on theory, form, fingering, technique, sight-reading, and etc. Nevertheless, I usually use many other books for guitar lessons since I always take into consideration the needs and goals of my students.
