I have been teaching online/in person for over two years in Downington PA, Reading PA, and Lancaster PA. My mix of music theory essentials and real world application makes learning not only fresh every lesson but excels your skills most efficiently. I always want what’s best for my student to make sure they are having a fun time while also feel like they are progressing to where they want to go. Learning music myself I didn’t feel that experience most of the time so I incorporate everything that I learned to make the most optimal experience.

I generally start with Hal Leonard Guitar Methods book one for beginners for basic music theory. This will teach the ins and outs of how music works and how to apply it to any music you are approaching no matter the genre. While we go through the books, we will incorporate music that the student wants to learn. We will breakdown why the music is the way it is and work up from the bottom how to play those songs. What’s important to me is that I make a personalized plan for each student to make them succeed as efficiently as possible.
