I've been teaching guitar since senior year of high school. I have taught from elementary age to adults small groups to private lessons, beginner and advanced guitar. I started guitar when i was eleven years old and through consistency and practice i was able to do the solos my teacher was asking for in concerts. I was first chair in guitar ensembles since sophomore year of high school and i played level 6a music when i was a freshmen in high school. i can read both standard notation and tabs.

For beginner students who have never held an instrument or don't know anything about music we'll go over basic guitar fundamentals we'll talk about different types of guitars, how to hold the guitar in classical and folk style positions, how to press your fingers on the strings (because there is a way), body parts of the guitar, basic music concepts such as beat and rhythm, how to read music both standard and tabs, basic guitar exercises, and a few fun songs once the fundamentals have been practiced enough. For teens and adults i will ask usually what it is that they want to learn and every week we will have one day where we focus on that subject. If you have never held and instrument and are an adult or teen we can go over the fundamentals as well.
