Beginning students who are children I use Mel Bay's Children's Guitar Method. Depending on their learning curve, I may use other methods and books to their learning language. Adults, I listen to their desires in learning their instrument and gear my lessons accordingly. Typically, I've used Alfred's Basic Guitar and Bass Method, Aaron Shearer Glassic Guitar Technique, Hal Leonard Guitar method, Alfred's Basic Guitar Scales and Modes, Hal Leonard Fingerpicking, Hal Leonard Christmas Carols for easy and advanced guitar, Hal Leonard Classical Guitar Christmas, Hal Leonard "A Treasury of Classical Guitar Repertoire, Mel Bay's Students Guide to Music Theory, Alternate Tunings by Woody Mann and Youtube.com.

Overall my work is focused on discovering music with the students and facing hurdles as we go. For voice I often let the student dictate the repertoire and support them with good technical basis.

For guitar I can use hal leonard or Alfreds but the Alfreds seems to move faster. Read More
