Our music lesson students will have the opportunity to take lessons from the comfort of their own home or in one of the teachers studios. Careful attention is placed on each student to ensure a custom lesson plan. Our music teachers understand that every student has different needs and abilities and therefore the lessons will be planned with that knowledge in mind.
lessons are available in the following areas:
Instruments: Guitar, Bass Guitar, Double Bass

I am currently teaching group guitar lessons through some of the schools and park districts in the northern suburbs of Chicago. Read More

No two students are exactly alike. Studies have proven that we all interpret colors differently, and it is the same for music and how we learn it.

Instruments: Guitar, Bass Guitar, Double Bass, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

Alas, private teaching was not enough teaching to satiate me, so I quickly found a summer job that would enable me to get as many hours teaching as possible. That job was teaching full length courses in Rock Performance, Composition, and Songwriting classes for a summer program located on Yale's campus. Read More
Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Voice, Clarinet, Bass Guitar, Shakuhachi, Keyboard, Electric Guitar
"Live" practice would be an ideal way to describe how I teach. I never encourage too much of one practice or rote memorization.

Many practices in our culture can be boring and lack efficiency because they lack these basic principles. As educators, we really need to turn that "dead" practice into "live" practice. Read More
