Why Learn to Play Guitar With Me
15+ years playing
I started playing the guitar when I was a teenager and have been playing ever since. It is the love of learning and the joy of pushing myself to the edge of my limits that I want to pass on to you!
10+ years teaching
I started teaching shortly after I started learning and have gathered enough experience to know what is going to help students move forward with their learning.
Grade 8 Classical Guitar
Classical music is not for everyone, but learning fingerstyle and classical guitar helped me understand that there is more to music than power chords and fast solos!
Lessons customized to each student
Whether you are 7 years old or 92 years young, I will help you get started with reading music or reading guitar tablature, chords, theory.
Learn songs you enjoy

Technique and theory explained simply

What to expect
F.A.Q.
What age do you teach?
I will teach young ones from 7 years old and up. The only requirements are a willingness to listen and learn.
Do I need to have my own guitar?
Yes you will need to have your own guitar for our guitar lessons. I can help recommend good affordable beginner guitars. But I will always mention the fact that you are able to rent a guitar from your local Long & Mcquade.
Do you teach Online?
Yes, they are cheaper because they will not require any travel time but your experience will vary depending on the quality of your internet.
Can adults learn how to play the guitar?
Yes, adults are always welcome. There is never a perfect age to start learning how to play the guitar or any instrument. The students that excel the most are the ones who play more often and enjoy the process of learning, regardless of age or gender or race.
How much practice will I need?
Depending on how busy you are and what age you are, young ones should be practicing at least 5-15 mins everday. For teenagers and above, I recommend that 15-30 minutes everday should be enough. But no matter what age or what skill level, in order to learn something, you should try to practice once EVERYDAY.
What styles do you teach?
I have a lot of experience playing classical guitar music, blues, 80-90s rock (think Guns ‘n’ Roses, AC/DC, Ozzy, etc.). Some lead guitar playing, rhythm guitar playing.
