I offer a fun, interactive teaching style that encompasses more than 20 years of performing and 15 years of teaching experience. As a performer I have worked as a professional singer, actor, musician, and dancer. I have always had a passion for teaching, directing, and composing. While my love for performing has lessened over the years, I have found my true calling: teaching, directing, and helping others to find their passion for music and the performing arts.
I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with a special emphasis in music, theatre, dance, and psychology. I am a graduate candidate working on completing my thesis as my final requirement for a Masters of Arts degree in Music at San Diego State University.
Member of the National Association of Teachers of Singing.

Andrew is a Ubiquitous Music-certified instructor with knowledge of many different aspects of music: whether you want to learn transcription, theory, technique or just want to rock, he can help you to achieve your goals.

Hello! I'm Andrew (but you knew that) and I play guitar!
I have been teaching for just over 3 years, and have studied through both private tutelage and the Ubiquitous Music curriculum. I have studied music theory and composition at Palomar college as well as privately with a graduate from the Berklee School of Music, and have studied arrangement techniques, sound engineering and reinforcement, and mixing techniques with a student of Blink 182's producer. My guitar education has been more widely varied, and includes lessons with a Musician's Institute graduate, a Berklee School of Music graduate, and several other professional guitarists in varying fields and styles.

I love to teach the violin and fiddle. I really enjoy working with adult beginners to help them discover music. You are never too old to learn! My specialty is working with young children to establish a wonderful foundation for the student with the violin and musicianship with both the violin and fiddle. I am a structured teacher who is helpful, friendly and fun to work with. In working with young children I encourage the parent to be involved with the lessons...to partnership, so that the child will progress and have an enjoyable experience. I use a modern approach to teaching materials; books that inspire and encourage the student at his/her level and age group. Having taught several instruments during the past 15 years...I understand the importance of passing on musical knowledge to brave beginners who are starting out on the pathway to a musical life. Music lessons can be a wonderful "corner stone" and a building block to a person's life be they young or old, beginner or...

Over the course of my musical career I have had the opportunity to learn from many musicians. From University Professors to Street Corner Musicians, I have gathered much knowledge on how to play music. Applying that knowledge to my guitar playing has opened up many doors of opportunity and has made my life very interesting. One of my talents is to take complicated ideas and convey them in easy to understand ideas for my students. I now wish to share all my knowledge and experiences with you to enjoy a life of music.
Students of mine have been able to create their own music to record and perform. Ensembles that I have directed have performed at many local venues. I have also invited students to join me at my performances to help them become more confident in their playing.

I have been teaching guitar professionally since 2001and performing professionally since 1994.

After graduating from the elite High School of Music in Oita, Japan - I came to America to study
at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. After completing their famous pedagogy program
in 1992, I graduated and settled in San Diego to focus on teaching and piano accompaning.
I began teaching piano full-time in 1997 and always get a thrill out of helping students of all
ages to achieve their musical dreams and bring out their best qualities.

opportunity to give back to family and friends whose sacrifices and support

I truly enjoy teaching and have many years of experience teaching students of all levels and ages.

I try to teach my students how important it is to listen to themselves play. When appropriate, I bring a guitar or bass (depending on the student's need) and help the student learn how drums relate to the rest of the music. I want all of my students to enjoy playing and want them to have music as a tool for life: one that helps them express themselves, think creatively, learn specific and technical skills, and grow as humans. I believe that all people can benefit from learning to play an instrument. If you or your child believe that music can provide a new way to find meaning and joy in life while learning a valuable skill, please contact me.

In addition, I have successfully taught many students who have had trouble in school due to lack of motivation and/or learning disabilities. Drum/percussion lessons have reawakened these discouraged students' desire to learn and I am happy...
