Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Ukulele Latin Percussion Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I start my lessons with asking the student to give me their top 10 favorites songs that they would like to learn and based on their level I will select one song to start. I start with the essential elements of theory and basic chords. Once the student has progressed I will beging to introduce different styles of music to find out what the student is interested in, and build a lesson's plan designed specifically fot the student and keeping the motivation and fun classes regardless of their ability level.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Lap Steel Guitar Banjo Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
My teaching experience started early on as a recognized multi instrumentalist even by my friends , I was able to teach them and put musical groups together or join existing ones. Playing various instruments in several different bands at the same time was a challenge but lots of fun, and has continued as of recently. I have played throughout the US and parts of Europe, while also teaching. I studied jazz guitar with Vik Juris and Berklee graduate Dave Rubin. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Ukulele Music Acoustic Guitar
There are different publishers that I use. Depending on the age, personality, age and interests of the students. It can vary; either Bastien, John Thompson, Alfred Publishing, Hal Leonard or any other I find appropriate. In a beginners face I explain notation values, names, posture and what affects their learning. Depending on the age of the student I decide if the material is suitable for their capacity of learning. We do different level and If I see that the student is a fast learner I upgrade them to an adult book. Read More

My teaching style is fun and laid back. I let each student work at their own pace but I do encourage them to practice daily and learn proper technique. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Synthesizer Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Keyboard Electric Guitar Djembe Acoustic Guitar
My style is relaxed, making sure not to cause any stress from overpracticing or the worst--teaching in an intimidating tone. I put myself in the students shoes in order to understand what particular skills need to have more attention put towards them. I may seem difficult to tutor through video, so I have earbuds with a boom microphone to ensure I can hear you as clearly as possible and you can hear my voice as clearly also. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I've had the experience and privilege of teaching students ranging from 5 years olds to adults in their 60's during the past 7 years. The core philosophy of teaching music lessons for me is that inspiration and motivation in a music lesson come from finding enjoyment and reward from the learning process. I've worked with students to develop better sight-reading skills, performance etiquette, improvisation, recording techniques, proper form, and posture, and marketing strategies, to help get your music heard when you feel ready and proud enough to share it with others.

When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
When people started telling me that's what I should do.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I decided by seeing other musicians play and them told me ?"Its not that hard, you just have to DO it (practice occasionally at your leisure)
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
Brown Sugar, by the Rolling Stones, because it has such a unique sound (being in G tuning and utilizing special chording and embellishments to the chords), and it is such a rousing song, that it transforms the audience form lackluster to being lively and dancing.
Although the original recorded words were offensive, I change those words a bit, so the song is not offensive, as do the Rolling Stones themselves, when they play in concert.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
1. Always keep your instrument HANDY (ex. on a music stand, where you can reach over and pick it up often) - not in a case, and put away.
2. Go slow, and increase speed as is comfortable for you.
3. No need to keep to a strict schedule for prctice. just do it now & then, when it suits you. You'll feel better about it that way, and your prctices will be more like fun than work.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Ordinarily age 10 (although some have done well at younger ages). Kids learn to read and write as early as age 6 or 7, so some kids would be good for starting lessons even that young.
When will I start to see results?
After the very FIRST lesson. (ex. with the guitar, just 3 simple chords will allow you to play literally hundreds of songs and tunes) Same with the mandolin. Even with the violin you could walk away after just 1 hour, already able to play a simple, short tune melody.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was inspired by a guitar player, who was a friend, and who played on stage. I got my first lessons from him.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
No special reason. I play 3 instruments (guitar, violin/fiddle, and mandolin) all in equal amounts. I love all 3, and neither is primary to the other.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Classic rock on the solid body electric guitar (Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton, the Cream, Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Neil Young)
On the violin - popular songs like the Christmas songs Joy to the World, Deck the Halls, Silent Night, Jingle Bells, New Years Eve song (Auld Lang Syne), Summertime, America the Beautiful, You Are My Sunshine, Beethoven's 9th Symphony, Santa Lucia, O Sole Mio, Never on Sunday, etc
European fiddle tunes (bordering on classical violin) - I like the melodies, and general tone of the tunes. American fiddle tunes are good too, but they aren't as complex and musical as the European tunes, which are similar to classical music.
These tunes were all originally dance music, but they have been modified slightly (jazzed up), to make them more as listening music, and I teach students how to do this themselves, for any tune they may play.
I also like Bluegrass mandolin, and rock music on the guitar. I like them all very much.
Bluegrass - a combination of Country, Folk, and Jazz.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Being good music listener.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Bowing on the violin/fiddle.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I do have a book that I refer to for my mandolin lessons. It is very instructive, and especially for movable chords.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Best thing is to just pick up the instrument at random times when you feel like it, and play with it. This is fun and becomes very useful practice as well.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Playing the baroque piece, Rights of Man (in E minor) on the violin
Also, playing the Rolling Stones song Brown Sugar, in open G tuning, on the guitar (either acoustic or electric)

My daughter is 7 and wants to learn guitar. Do you teach online only or in person? Not sure how this works but I am looking for a traditional one on one teacher for her.
