I have been a professional musician for over 25 years. I have toured all over the US as well as performed in Canada, Mexico and Switzerland. My career has enabled me to do some cool things over the years, including, record on numerous CD's, including a Grammy award winning CD, music videos, video game music and various special events around the US.

With a Bachelors degree in music and over 5 years teaching experience, I am here to show you how to learn the art of the guitar. I come from a background of heavier rock styles and studied classical guitar at the university level. But moreover, I want to teach you what you want to learn. I will teach whatever you want to learn, whether you want to master scales, play country, blues or any other style, it will all be within your grasps.

I been playing the guitar professionally for over 20 years. In that time I had the good fortune to perform and record with some really good musicians. I' ve played in various bands ranging from rock to jazz and flamenco. I received my bachelor's degree in recording engineer and record producer from LBCC.

I'm currently a Guitar Teacher for different music schools and have a number of private students as well.

Hi!
My name is Felipe and I am a graduate of the University of North Texas where I studied Music Theory and am classically trained at the guitar. I am currently persuing my master's degree at Texas State University. I can play many instruments and love helping others learn how to play and have fun.

My introduction to music was when I got a drum set my sophomore year of high school. I taught myself to play by playing along with my favorite bands like Pearl Jam, the Smashing Pumpkins and the Beatles. I started teaching myself to play the guitar two years later during my senior year of high school. Soon after, I learned how to play electric bass, ukulele and mandolin. Since then, I have played in many garage bands and pursued an education in music.

My teaching style is very laid-back. I understand that all students, no matter what age, are different. I don't expect everyone to learn music my way but help to put music in terms that the student understands and feels...

My name is Tim and I live in Schertz, Texas. I hold a BM and a BME from UTSA and an MM from Texas State. I also studied drama for 3 years at Trinity University. I have been a music teacher for 22 years. I have taught elementary music, secondary choir and college level music courses. I have performed in operas, musicals and plays in San Antonio and I have sung at Carnegie Hall in New York. I studied voice with Herald Stark and guitar with David Underwood. I have led a professional singing group and a professional dance troupe. I have composed choral music which has been performed in San Antonio and entered into international competitions. I have spent years learning techniques to help students sing in tune and learn how to read music. I have experience teaching students of all ages from 3 year olds to adults. I teach students from Northeast San Antonio, Selma, Schertz, Live Oak, Universal City, Cibolo, Converse, Marion, Seguin and New Braunfels.

I grew up in New Braunfels, TX and grew to love music at an early age, first picking up the guitar at age twelve. I went to Colorado Christian University where I studied jazz and classical guitar under renowned guitarist, Danny Masters, and graduated 2010 with honors and returned to the New Braunfels area where I have been teaching guitar and bass and has been active in the music scene from San Antonio to Austin, playing in the jazz club circuit. My debut jazz album was released to much acclaim in 2012. I then pursued a Master of Music degree in Composition, graduating with honors in 2013. I am also active as a session musician in a wide variety of genres, both as a guitarist and bassist. With a wealth of experience and in depth education, I am prepared to give students a strong foundation in music to start out with and also help them fine tune their abilities into the advanced levels.

I began playing guitar at the age of eight when I found an old nylon string that my older brother had left when he went to college. Although I couldn't take lessons because we didn't have a guitar teacher in the small New Mexico town I grew up in, I began playing the thing incessantly-particularly while watching TV. By the time I had learned how to play the theme to “The Newlywed Game” on the guitar, my mother relented and found a local accordion teacher who would give me music lessons. By the time I was in middle school I was playing gigs with a local Country and Western dance band.

After high school, I moved to Austin, TX. Those years leading up to my return to college were filled with lots of music, not much money, and the invaluable education in music that only Austin, TX can give. In 2006 I completed my Bachelor’s Degree in Theory and Composition at the University of New Mexico, and was embarking on a new path in my career.

And then They came along.
