Instruments: Guitar Classical Guitar

Since I'm primarily a Classical Guitar player, I emphasize the technique required for it, which is mainly finger-style. My primary teaching method is derived from Aaron Shearer, which many famous guitarists have used, including the well known Manuel Barrueco. The main instruction book is written by Aaron Shearer, which teaches classical guitar technique and standard music notation sight reading, but I'm also flexible. If I see a student would prefer to strum and accompany their own or others singing, I teach from Hal Leonard's Complete Guitar Method book. Read More

My experience in teaching has been a very different ride than most. I was asked by Black Cat Music Shop if I would be interested in teaching and at first I was scared and didn't think I was ready. After having a hand full of students and seeing them progress faster than I thought they would I got excited for them. I then began more and more classes. I started teaching short 30min classes and 60min classes. Read More

Also more music theorey is introduced. Once good playing skills are obtained then we move in the direction of the students desired songs that they want to learn. Also, at this point I start using tabulature script as songs are expected to get more difficult and technical. It really all comes together and becomes fun. For Intermediate to advanced students I work primarily on technique and finding a style of play. Read More
