I feel I explained a good amount of my teaching style in the last column. I really like to go with what the student will benefit from the most, not necessarily what is the cookie cutter "next step" I learned to play by trying things a couple levels above me and I loved it.

I encourage a lot of my students to have goals on why they want to learn guitar and I will help them achieve their goals and more. With that said I am very demanding when it comes to practice and being ready for each lesson to learn and get better at the guitar. Read More
