Instruments: Guitar, Bass Guitar

My teaching style is very basic. Any student needs to first understand the names of the strings on a guitar followed by the first cords.

Generally speaking, I use a learner-centered approach, encourage astute questioning, a cooperative stimulation of critical thinking, and I prefer an active versus passive teaching style.

I teach sight-reading and classical guitar using the Sagrares Method, and advise (particularly guitarists) on health and wellness methods developed by Dorothy Taubman. Read More
