Guitar Lessons Northeast

Instruments: Piano, Guitar

I've been teaching guitar since 2010 and have a lot of experience working with younger kids. I know many techniques and ways to get kids excited about playing music. I know a lot of kids get turned off to music because their teachers bog them down with information and don't really get them playing until its too late. My approach is to get students playing the first minute they walk in the room. Read More

I am very patient, friendly, humorous, approachable and humble/modest in demeanor, where many other teachers have a huge ego and "God complex", where they talk down to the student and make them feel uneasy and overly self-conscious. I am completely flexible with my lessons, teaching exactly what the student (or parent) wants (them) to learn, anything from the standard traditional approach (i.e reading music) to the rock approach just teaching them how to play their favorite songs, which I figure out by ear on the spot from the recording which the student asks me to listen to.

Hailing from Philadelphia area, I grew up in a family of professional musicians. My diverse musical life has brought me to a number of stages: solo recitals, jazz big band, and electro-rock to name a few. While I love playing, I bring just as much passion to teaching, and love helping people of all ages achieve their goals and to help them find their way. Learning music is as much about the journey as the end goal, and I try to make that journey as fun and worthwhile as possible. Read More

It is great to see any individual move towards growing their abilities for self expression. Learning music can bring the best out of many facets of life, and yield a beautiful way to communicate. I see teaching as assisting someone on that path. To me a teacher should help encourage growth and be open to learning as well. Any student I have will be met with a smile and enthusiasm for their interests and goals. Read More

This is part of my motivation for moving into teaching now---the other half of it involves the wonder that is music! Playing with others brings me an inimitable kind of joy. I hope to be able to share this joy with others! I studied music composition at Bennington College, and graduated with my BA in June of 2018. I've played at the Amerikahaus in Munich, Blue Note in Manhattan, with John Zorn at the Brooklyn Conservatory, with Debbie Harry at the Hard Rock Cafe, at Webster Hall, Rockwood Music Hall, The Flea Theater, Fat Cat Billiards, The Music Hall of Williamsburg, the Flea Theater, the Williamsburg Music Center, Windjammer, and Scholes Street Studio.
