My methods for teaching change with each student, meaning I cater the lesson to your needs. I am not going to teach an adult the same way I teach a child and vice versa. Everyone learns differently and at different speeds so I like to find out how you learn early on so I can tweak my lesson plan accordingly. I also, with certain steps in the lesson plan, like to give the student (depending on the age) options in lesson material because ultimately, you know how you learn best and I want you to get the most out of your lessons.

I believe in teaching people to be true musicians and tap into their own creative spirits, not just to be technicians at the mercy of what's written for them. With that said, I take a balanced approached between learning traditional fundamentals and some of my own more philosophical approach, drawing on metaphors and analagous experiences to help frame this learning experience in ways the student can relate and understand. I call this The Art of Practice, which you'll be able to apply elsewhere in your life as well. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I like to start them with the "Guitar Method for Young Beginners Series" and then into the "Progressive Rhythm Guitar". Even while a student is learning the fundamentals, there are songs that can be taught at every skill level to keep each lesson fun. Once the basic understanding of chords,modes,scales etc are understood, then the student will be taught any style desired, along with any help requested in any other aspect. Read More

With every student, no matter the age, I like to get an idea of their goals intended, or help them develop goals along the way. Everyone wants to play music for different reasons, and I like to keep that in mind for each student. However, regardless of the goal, my philosophy is to empower each student to discover their sound and voice on their instrument. Of course, we will still go over the fundamentals and essential "building blocks" of music, but also develop musical personality in the process. Read More
Instruments: Guitar, Trombone, Electric Guitar, Classical Guitar, Acoustic Guitar
For beginning students I typically start with the basics such as hand placement and proper holding of the instrument. Next the focus is on learning basic reading of music and memorization of notes . After basic technique is mastered I then focus on the interests of the students and future lessons are tailored around the style and type of music; country, pop, classical etc.. that the student has the most interest in learning.
