Homework
1 hour per week. I will provide assignments related to the work we've done in the lessons. Although it is up to the student to decide how much extra time they put in outside of lessons... the more they practice, the easier things will become. Spending as little as 20 minutes a day, a few times a week can really help the student develop their skills on the instrument.

Class Experience

In this course we will study the guitar.  Topics will include (depending on experience), learning the string names, note names, understanding the fingerboard, reading music and learning music by ear. The lessons will combine material that I provide for the student as well as pieces of music that the student would like to learn. I am very flexible with my lesson plans and try to suit the lesson to the students needs. For example, I encourage my students to suggest songs that they actually want to learn to make it a more positive experience. Through these songs I explain the harmony, rhythm, and note names to give the student a deeper understanding of the songs they are learning. I'm personally experienced in pop, rock, jazz, classical, and many other styles of music and love to teach all styles.

Learning Goals

I believe music lessons should be a fun, positive experience. My own music lessons growing up were always something I looked forward to and I want to pass on that experience to my own students. Every student learns at a different pace so the lessons are tailored to meet the student's individual needs. My main teaching objective is to engage each student, encourage their love of music, and to inspire an ongoing sense of personal achievement.
