Students will learn to:
1. perform a harmonizing instrument (guitar)
2. read music notation in standard, tablature, and lead sheet form

4. play chords

For over a decade, I have provided music instruction across all instruments and ensembles for PreK through high school. My students have gone on to successful careers, with many performing in music. My skills of learning one instrument and effectively transferring that understanding to many other instruments have served me well as a school music educator. I earned a Master's of Music from the University of Tennessee for general, vocal, and instrumental education. My innovative teaching and dedication to music education have gained various industry recognition. I ensure my students receive appropriate teaching methods that help them effectively and safely develop their potential. Thank you for choosing me to be part of your journey.
