    About Cristopher H.

    Just a humble music teaching trying to find the best ways to teach students to play the music they love while having fun doing it. I’ve been playing the guitar for over 10 years and have been in numerous bands and studio recording sessions as a freelance guitarist—session guitarist. Due to the pandemic, I’ve developed experience recording and making music through file-sharing with musicians across the globe. I have a very relaxed and easygoing teaching style and I focus on teaching students music they already enjoy instead of sitting them in front of a book learning music they care nothing about.

    I have been taking lessons with Cris for a few weeks now and they are going great! He is super professional and attentive to individual needs. He has really helped me figure out my own goals as a musician, and how to get there.

    Only our first lesson, but my sometimes shy, sometimes easily frustrated 8 yo daughter responded very well to Chris and gave the lesson literally 2 thumbs up. Looking forward to see her learn how to play!
