Aloha! My name is Ron and I am offering Beginner-Intermediate level guitar lessons for students of all ages. I have over a decade of teaching experience, in the United States and abroad, with an emphasis on personalized and custom-tailored lessons. My approach is to have students learn by playing songs and styles that THEY choose! Every session is uniquely built for each student based on their specific goals and desires, to make sure they are learning exactly what they want and need. Read More

I like to make sure that my students are organized. I encourage them to bring a notebook to class to write down what they are supposed to practice. It helps them to stay on task on set goals. I love to see a student who comes in prepared. We usually will start off with some warm up exercise and then get to working on the music. I like to teach musicality so I encourage improvisation, singing, clapping, tapping feet, and other physical body movements to help internalize the beat. Read More

I believe a well-rounded and practical approach to teaching music-- where students learn to not only read music, but also play freely with chords and scales to create their own music, learn by ear, and improvise. My goal is to help students grow so that they can play music in a personal and rewarding way, and develop the skills they need to play the songs that they love. I use both Piano Adventures and Alfred Premier method book series in my lessons. Read More

If a student expresses a desire to learn a certain technique or style of music, I will support that desire with my best effort and within my abilities. Read More

My teaching experience goes back to my days in college. I would give lessons every week and teach students different grooves and techniques around the set. When teaching, I stress the basics so that students have a good foundation that they can build on. I also expose students to different musical styles and approaches to the drums. When teaching, I want to make sure the student has enough tools to survive in any musical situation. Read More
