experienced students (1+ yrs of play) I will gauge exactly how much guitar knowledge my students have that have been playing for some time.

Advanced: More advanced students (3+ yrs of play) will also be gauged. These students can expect to learn: Speed picking, fret tapping, pinch harmonics, improvisation, soloing, writing rhythm chord progression.
I have 16 years musical experience, performing, and writing. My teaching methods are very demonstrative, I am very disciplined in my art and can help my students become amazing guitarists! I love working with children, and young adults. I strive to broaden my student's musical horizons.
All of my students are taught one on one at my studio at 415 Delaware avenue in Palmerton.
