Very flexible, friendly, understanding and supportive teacher. I encourage my students to play duets with me and their friends (if applicable) and participate in recitals.I also try to teach them basic music theory unless they object, and help them to understand music, learn more about the history of music, and related matters. Some of my students take Royal Conservatory of Music tests regularly. I try to accommodate my students' interests and needs and always open to new things -say if they want to learn guitar accompaniment toa song they want to sing or solo/ accompaniment for a band.

My methods are specific to a student's goals. For beginners, I usually like to use Hal Leonard's Guitar Method series to get them reading music and playing guitar in the first (or open) position.
