Guitar with Levi H.

I received my Bachelor of Music (cum laude) in Jazz Studies from Wayne State University, perform in the Rhythm Society Orchestra, freelance as a guitarist in the Detroit area, and have taught both privately and at the Grosse Pointe Music Academy for many years. I was also fortunate to study with the great jazz guitarist Pat Martino. My students, who range from beginners to performing professionals, have achieved much success, including full-ride music scholarships to colleges and universities across the United States. My teaching is based on years of experience, and I am passionate about helping students realize their potential as creative musicians. I primarily teach guitar and consider myself a guitarist, but I have also taught electric bass, banjo, and ukulele. My goal with every student is to help create an awareness of the instrument which allows the student to explore the music that excites them. The guitar is quite a uniquely complex instrument that is not fully understood by most, and it takes a lifetime to master, so let's get started - I look forward to working with you!
