Overview:

AND WEST PALM BEACH FL. AND WELLINGTON FLA. I HAVE BEEN IN ACTING CLASSES IN CLAUDE FILES ACTORS STUDIO AND REPRESENTD BY A MAJOR AGENCY IN SCOTTSDALE AZ. HAVE BEEN PERSONALLY INSTRUCTED IN GUITAR TECHNIQUE BY JOHN PILLA , WHO HAS RECORDED WITH BOB DYLAN AND ARLO GUTHRIE. ALL STUDENTS OF MNE ARE TREATED WITH PATIENCE AND RESPECT.
EXPERIENCE
MY TEACHING EXPERIENCE HAS BEEN OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS . I ENCOURAGE REGULAR PRACTICE ON LEVELS THAT ARE COMPATABLE WITH THE STUDENTS CURRENT LEVEL . VOCAL INSTRUCTIONS START WITH BASIC VOCAL RANGE AND STAMINA AND PROGRESS WITH EACH LESSON. GUITAR INSTRUCTIONS START WITH STUDENTS LEVEL WHEN STARTING LESSONS WITH ME AND RANGE OF INSTRUCTION INCLUDE CHORD STRUCTURE , FINGERPICKING, VARIOUS FRETBOARD TECHNIQUES AND INCLUDE BLUES FOLK POP INDIE POP COUNTRY SOFT ROCK AND BLUEGRASS. INTREST IS SPARKED BY PASSION AND DESIRE TO BE BETTER.
METHODS USED
ON GUITAR INSTRUCTION , I WILL START A BEGINNER WITH CHORD STRUCTURE AND BASIC TECHNIQUE. THEN WE WILL PROGRESS TO TIMING AND RHYTHMS, TO FINGERPICKING TECHCNIQUE AND ALSO INCREASE CHORD STRUCTURE INCLUDING 7 THS 6THS FLSTS SHARPS AND BARRE CHORDS . IN VOCALS ALL STYLES ARE GLADLY ACCEPTED AND I WILL CUSTOMIZE MY LESSNS TO THE INDIVIDUAL STUDENT ,. INCLUDES POP VOCALS, CLASSIC THEATRE VOCAL TECHNIQUE AND INCREASING THE VOCAL RANGE OF THE INDIVIDUAL STUDENT THROUGH PRACICING VOLUME CONTROL AND TREMELO TECHNIQUE.
LESSON STYLE
I APPROACH TEACHING WITH A COMPASSIONATE UNDERSTANDING OF THE INDIVIDUAL STUDENTS INTERESTS AND DESIRED ACHIEVEMENTS. AS MY STUDENTS PROGRESS LIVE RECORDINGS BOTH VIDEO AND SOUND ARE TAKEN AS THE STUDENT GOES FURTHER ALONG IN HIS ABILITIES. WHEN A STUDENT ACTUALLY SEES HIS OR HER PROGRESSION ON A VIDEO OR WITH A LIVE RECORDING MOTIVATION AND ABILITY TO GO FURTHER ALONG IN TECHNIQUE AND STAGE OR FILM ABILITY. I HAVE PERSONALLY BEEN IN SEVERAL NATIONAL COMMERCIAL PRODUCTIONS AND HAVE PERSONALLY ACTED IN ROBIN COOKS TELEMOVIE "TERMINAL'.
