Instruments: Guitar

My teaching started in High School, when i received a job offer to teach guitar at Rhapsody School of Music. I taught students for about 2 years, and once I graduated High School, I moved to Flagstaff to get my degree. Once I was living in Flagstaff, I taught and helped my peers with guitar and music theory, which made my love for music grow even more. I love working with any student that has an interest in music.

Instruments: Piano Voice

My approach to teaching is fun and nurturing,making sure students have a clear understanding of the fundamental principles of music,while encouraging individual student's own creativity and aural skills.I always inspire students to enjoy music and their musical instrument whilst developing their discipline to build self-esteem and help them grow socially and academically. During my lessons students work on their sight reading,technique,ear training and,of course I come up with fun musical games for younger beginners. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I encourage lots of questions from my students. I will also ask them to tell me what they felt in there voice when I ask them to do something. I believe that the voice teacher is only as good as his student can understand what they are actually being asked to do. I set goals for my students, and ask that they practice every day for at least 30 minutes on various things that I may ask them to work on such as scales or a new song ect. Read More

Instruments: Guitar

I have always been a bit of a sponge and in my own early days as a self taught guitarist I would try and soak up everything I can. My first students were actually early band-mates and other musicians that I would jam with. I occasionally some private studios but currently teach out of my home studio which is both convenient for me and my students as I have all my materials, instruments, books I have acquired over the years easily available.

My earliest experience teaching was as a music counselor at a summer festival called French Woods. During my two summers working there, I taught students of all ages and skill levels on tenor and bass trombone, including private lessons. At French Woods I learned that I loved helping young musicians grow. After obtaining my Masters Degree in 2020 I focused on music education, and I have worked as a teacher for more than two years.

Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

At a very young age I was fascinated with hearing guitar solo's and listening to guitar parts by all the legends. Eventually after working with a classical guitar that my sister had, I purchased a Harmony guitar from a friend of my dad's (John "Hollywood" Bridgewater). Whenever I would meet musicians in school that played we would get together and trade licks. That eventually turned into me teaching all my guitar playing friends licks. Read More
