Class Experience
Your future rockstar will learn everything from the very basics to mastering the instrument if desired. - How to hold and sit with the guitar. - The basics parts of the instrument. - Rhythm practice. Lesson Details: - How to Count & Strum Rhythms: We start by learning the very basics, and foundational so your learner can truly enjoy playing songs. Without an understanding and knowledge of how rhythm is played, counted, and read, students can be left behind feeling confused and feeling defeated. Without rhythm there isn't music. - How to Read Guitar Tablature: Guitar is unlike all other instruments, in that it has its very own sheet music. Tablature or "TAB" (as we refer to it) is a very simple and straight forward way to read and write music on guitar. - How to Hold & Use a Guitar Pick: Guitar plectrums or (Guitar Picks for short) are crucial to playing different styles of music on guitar. I'll show you how to hold the pick, how to strum with it, picking the right pick, and how to pick individual notes. - How to Fret Notes: Fretting a note on the guitar has a lot to do with your entire posture and positioning of your arms, wrist, and the guitar itself. Fretting can be the most discouraging part of learning the guitar if it isn't taught properly. - Learn full songs From the first note to the final measure, we focus on mastering songs, exercises, and more.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a professional musician, I write, compose, perform, and produce music.
I'm a multi-instrumentalist (guitar, piano, drums, bass, singing) and I love it, it's my obsession and my passion.
I have over 6 years of experiencing teaching music to all ages, group and private lessons. Through my experience I have learned fun and enjoyable ways to learn and teach guitar that keeps students interested and excited. I've built my own philosophical approach to teaching that has proven to be highly effective over the years.
The guitar has brought me endless focus, joy, and discipline my entire life. I enjoy teaching those who want to learn and find it highly rewarding to see new guitarists go from not being able to play to strumming and plucking songs in a matter of weeks. I teach standard 6 string guitar in E Standard as well as 3 string guitar to younger students.
See you in class!
