Instruction 2.0

Common questions:

Will it have the human element I'm looking for?
Our relationship is personable - many students choose to share personal thoughts about the week, and I do the same. We have conversations!

Are you going to be able to see/hear me well?
I watch your videos on a 30-inch monitor using high-quality speakers and at a closer proximity than would naturally occur during an in-person visit.

I am not good with technology, is it easy to operate?
Yes! It is easier than a Zoom or Skype call. Most of  my students are seniors who have very limited experience with technology, watch the testimonials! Contact me for a FREE meeting! We’ll get to know one another, and I’ll set it all up for you - no hassle! Your lesson is delivered directly to your email and can be accessed from any device.

I TEACH:

I have been playing the classical guitar since I was 8 years old and know all the pitfalls and barriers you must overcome to reach the next level. I have developed a brand-new way of looking at guitar technique and can't wait to share it with you!

Are you tired of playing the same thing over and over again? Develop your improvisation skills with me, and you'll never get bored again! Your creativity will expand at an exponential rate. These videos were created on the fly, with no preparation - just grabbing the guitar and letting it happen. I can teach you to do the same

Learn how to not only play the right notes but to be consistent at it, your new level awaits you and all you need is the electric guitar and me ;)

Understand how music works, get into the mind of composers through musical analysis and gain a new degree of appreciation of this beautiful art form called music. 

My intensive classical guitar training gives me a considerable edge in playing and understanding the ukulele. It is similar to a guitar, but with only 4 strings. That means all chord shapes and melodic lines are virtually identical to playing those strings on a regular guitar. It's a simpler and more accessible instrument for anyone who wants to learn their first musical instrument.
