David enjoys teaching students from all different backgrounds and levels of proficiency. Whether you are just starting out or a virtuoso shredder in the making, he is happy to teach you! Over all, he is fairly laid back, as long as you practice. He usually combines work with reading off of the treble clef (what he likens to "eating your vegetables." You may not want to do it, but it will make you a healthier musician!) with learning more popular songs (or songs the student says they would like to learn) through tablature and chord charts, depending on the style of the song.
David is also very pro music theory. He usually incorporates music theory into the curriculum in conjunction with the material already being discussed. He is also very knowledgeable about composition/songwriting, and if the student is interested in learning more about this area, he is happy to share what he knows!

It’s always a very special time a guitar student wants to learn about the blues. As an improviser, this is one of my favorite topics to teach.
We will listen to the great blues guitarists, discussing their individual sound and technique. Lots of time will be spent learning scales and basic harmonic principles. Most importantly though, we will jam! It’s not easy at first, but I promise to keep the vibe easy-going and positive.

Over the past 12 years, we've given over 3,000,000 lessons to happy customers around the world.
I have progressed considerably more in a few months taking with him than a year and a half of being "self-taught". He is very thorough with his explanations during the lesson and then uploads notes into a private shared drive for you to keep practicing/progressing on your own. He will also tailor his teaching to your learning style to ultimately allow you to play the style of music you like to play. I guarantee if take guitar from JP and put the time into practice - you'll reach the goals you've set and you'll have a blast doing it!
