Teaching Style
I am a patient instructor that focuses on each student's individual goals. I want you to learn the music that you enjoy as well as all skills, guitar techniques and theory to become a rounded musician and guitarist. Every student is different and I adapt lessons to each learning style. My main goals are for the student to have fun learning and make steady progress. I make sure each student receives detailed instruction, feedback, and most importantly, guidance on how to practice in a way that yields the strongest and quickest results. Effective practice is the determining factor in each student's success.
Practice Habits
The importance of practice cannot be emphasized enough. A student's lessons alone will not bring about success. My job is to make sure that each student practices concepts that will enhance their ability and understanding of the guitar and also to make sure that it is done as effectively as possible. I recommend having set days and times for practice with a minimum of 3 days, 30 minutes each, and focusing on 1-2 items with each practice session. Regular practice results in steady improvement and heightened curiosity. I love being asked questions and watching my students become interactive and inquisitive with the guitar as they learn.
