It's called JAM BAND. Instead of focusing on reading notes, we focus on learning chords, lead guitar, and songwriting. The same with drums! We start playing the beat at the very first lesson. The goal with this style of teaching is that you can walk into any room and jam with band, no matter what style it is, you can hop right in! Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Read More

For beginning students who wish to learn how to read music, I typically start with the Berklee Method Phase 1 book by William Leavitt. This book is great and gets you playing in no time while learning the fundamentals of music. For adults or more advanced students, I want to help guide the student in their interests. The student's level of technical ability will be assessed and exercises to improve technique will be stressed as well as learning scales, chords, and songs helping the student to increase their ability and repertoire.

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, when I was hired as an instructor for Hudson Music Studios. The 8 years that I spent with this institution were a huge part of the person I am today.

I've been teaching for over 10 years. I first try to figure the students' taste and style of music. I teach songs they like and want to learn. My theory is, there's a lesson in every song. I want lessons to be informative, educational and enjoyable. I strive to develop the student into a confident, proud musician that feels comfortable playing in any situation - not just at lesson time. I encourage all my students to interact and play with other students any chance they get, whether at school or friends Read More
