Guitar Lessons Washington

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Bass Guitar, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching the guitar and beginner piano in 2012 after I graduated from UCSB and have been teaching in students’ homes and online since then. My teaching experience ranges from teaching adults who want to learn the fundamentals of classical guitar (beginning technique and sight-reading exercises) to teaching young kids interested in modern methods of playing, learning pop and rock songs, and playing solos. In 2015, I taught in afterschool programs, notably for Hancock Park Elementary School in Hancock Park, Los Angeles, for which I taught an excellent group of curious learners as we surveyed modern guitar methods, sight-reading, chords and harmonic progressions, and playing in duos.

Therefore, I try to keep each lesson engaging and fun while also setting reasonable goals for my students.

I began as a junior instructor with a group of teachers who taught different instruments, where students had the opportunity to play in a band setting.

Instruments: Guitar, Bass Guitar, Synthesizer

My style of teaching is all built around assisting students in finding their own musical voice. I love using theory and technique as a means to unlock each student's full musical potential. I have developed a good method that is enjoyable and easy to understand. Learning the basics of theory like intervals, harmony, scales, and arpeggios is super important. The other main thing is to learn how to organize the fretboard. Read More

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Clarinet, Bass Guitar, Organ, Ukulele, Mandolin, Recorder, Double Bass, Keyboard, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

In my teaching style I have specific skills in technique, literacy and interpretation that I believe are important; these are drawn from traditional classical values and the folk elements I learned between ages fifteen and twenty-five. After addressing performance practice in these areas I like to bring the students interests and inclinations in and use the afore-mentioned aspects to help them achieve skills to play music in their individual voice.
