I Teach All Ages, at All Levels!

I toured Europe for three years in the late 1970s with the folk group 'Dalriada' - I played authentic Irish music with Irish musicians. I intimately know, understand (and will teach you) the real Irish feel!

I have been a professional musician all my adult life, teaching thousands of students over a span of more than three decades!

I use the Zoom app for live interactive lessons from the comfort of your home.

You certainly have many options available regarding choosing an instructor, but I have to assume that you would like to hire the most qualified teacher to guide you on the journey through the wonderful world of music.

Everyone moves further, much faster, and is more likely to stay engaged by learning from a master teacher with decades of real-world professional experience to share.

I will give you what you need to know, in order to take you where you want to go!
