I also might bring in a mixture of exercises from the Trevor Wye book and my etude books, depending on the level of advancement. In addition to the methods books and etude books, I will work with my students to select a piece of solo repertoire that is within their playing ability. I believe that solo repertoire is, more or less, the ultimate goal of all the technical and expressive exercises. Read More

For all styles, I use a combination of my own method and materials focused on technique, songs/repertoire, and music theory (which I have been using and developing for over 2 decades) along with certain specialized guitar books for teaching music reading specifically on the instrument (i.e. "sight-reading").

I find it important to have structure in the lessons, as well as explaining the importance of practice and preparation. Read More
