Lesson details
Lessons are flexible
Choose either weekly 30 min lessons (best for younger students), bi-weekly 1 hour lessons (often better for adults), or weekly 1 hour lessons (for the more serious student).
You can expect to learn...
We'll start with the basics (terminology, mechanics, instrument-specific care and up-keep, tuning, etc.), then move on to fret-board theory, music theory, ear training (playing and learning by ear), sight-reading, soloing, improvisation, practicing with a metronome, singing and playing, song-writing, etc. All ages and skill levels are welcome, and we can study any genre... rock, punk, pop, folk, bluegrass, jazz, funk, classical... you name it, I teach it. I also teach students how to set up a home recording studio and get moving with home recording and MIDI, using programs like Logic Pro or GarageBand.
Have fun while you learn...
I strive to provide fun and informative lessons for all ages and skill-levels, while focusing on what you actually want to learn. Why did you decide to learn an instrument in the first place? We'll explore that question together, and come up with a plan that fits your goals and needs as a developing musician.
Now Offering ONLINE Lessons
Starting in March of 2020, in the wake of COVID-19, I began to offer online lessons, which means location is no longer a factor for anyone interested in taking lessons with me! They're going great, and are a great alternative to in-person lessons. All you need is a device (computer, tablet, phone) of some kind and a good WIFI signal, and I'll handle the rest.
