Commercial Music, Shenandoah University Classical Guitar Performance, Montgomery College
I'm an experienced professional guitarist with miles on the road, hours in the studio, and years teaching. I am really friendly and enthusiastic in lessons, and can cater the lessons to you. I can teach you guitar. Anything you want to learn.
I've taught all ages in studio, in my home, and in students home. I've taught across the DC area and the NYC metro area. I've taught the very young and very old. I've taught for special circumstances and needs of all kinds. Ask me about it and I'll tell you. I can prepare you for auditions, coach you for performance, and help you find your voice in composition.
For beginners I press through Hal Leonard's Guitar Method #1, laying a foundation of skills as well as approaching notation reading on the guitar. From there we begin to specialize based on the student's interest. For more advanced students, we'll focus on goals such as live performances, audition preparation, and repertoire.
I encourage my students to be enthusiatic dedicated and creative. I focus on improvisation as a earning tool for theory, and encourage experimentation, collaboration, and original composition whenever possible. I build functioning guitar players who can read charts, improvise comfortably, and play with anyone, anywhere, anytime.
