Private Guitar tutoring lessons Barnesville, MD.

Learn the songs you love either through playing by ear with music theory or learning to sight read on electric, acoustic, and classical guitar

Specializing in a comprehensive approach to music which includes instrumental technique, music theory, rhythm and aural skills, music history and appreciation, music performance and songwriting in order to build a solid foundation in musicianship. Pop, Rock, Country and Folk genres.

My guitar lessons have an emphasis on rhythmic and harmonic training (how things sound and feel). Building a sense of melody and musicality are also a strong focus. This is accomplished through learning and playing familiar songs, reading different kinds of music, and improvising/composing. All the while, we will be building a relaxed and natural approach to the instrument.

I am a Berklee College of Music graduate with over twenty years of guitar teaching experience. If you would like to learn blues, rock, heavy metal, folk or other styles, I can help you. Many students have come to me over the years wanting to learn how to play their favorite songs, learn how to improvise or simply just improve their playing. For over twenty years I have been helping students achieve these goals, and if you have similar goals I can help you as well.
