Bass Guitar with Brandon W.

I am a college student who's real passion is for music. I play in 2 semi-professional bands and cannot see myself doing anything for the long term besides being involved in music. It is this passion that drives me to teach others so that they can experience the fun, joy, and satisfaction that music has brought to my life. I am 100% committed to my students. Every student is different and requires a different way of learning. I am not one of those old school teachers who is more concerned with their ego than their student. Whatever the student wants to learn, I teach. I develop a lesson plan designed for each individual student based on musical goals, age, experience, ability to learn etc. I am honest, punctual, and flexible to make sure that all of my students are comfortable and excited to learn music. Please note that taking lessons involves 5% instruction and 95% practice. Some people think that after one or two hours of lessons they will be the next Van Halen. As a teacher, I can only teach so much in 30-60 minutes. Whatever is covered in the lesson must be practiced and perfected by the student on their own time when they have more than 30-60 minutes. Lessons are a time to evaluate progress since the last lesson as well as teach new concepts to be practiced until the next meeting. In other words, learning an instrument is entirely what you make of it. I can give you the tools to learn quicker and more efficiently, but I cannot make someone a rockstar with 1 hour a week. That is up to you! With dedication the sky is the limit!
