Guitar Lessons Northeast

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Bass Guitar, Ukulele

For Guitar beginners I start with the Mel Bay guitar book one that has been around for years now. For piano I use Alfred's book. I have students use the book from these publishers according to their age. As a younger student progresses through the books, I begin to choose solo repertoire that are appropriate for their skill level. I also love to teach students songs they want to learn. Read More

I studied guitar with international performing artist Anna Maria Rosado and composition with American composer Annette Le Siege.  I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Classical Guitar Performance from New Jersey City University.  I have performed extensively in small venues throughout Vermont, and was a house musician for several seasons at the Yosemite Theater in Yosemite National Park, California. I have been teaching for over 30 years. Most of my students describe me as fun and patient. Read More

I think being well rounded is important with music and one thing that I've noticed is building on what the student is interested in. Started off with materials builds important fundamentals, but if my student is nodding off to sleep, then I'm not doing my job. I'll begin by setting a goal and seeing what the student is interested in (i.e. what band/song would they like to learn about?)

My teaching style is based on whatever the goals of my student are. If my student shows an interest in being able to play a particular piece, then we are working step by step to reach that goal by building up to it. If they want to write their own music in a particular style, then I am helping them analyze music that they are influenced by to better understand how to add it to their vocabulary. Read More
