I am a songwriter and guitar player, performing in two bands around Boston. I play both acoustic and electric guitar, mostly in pop/rock/blues styles.

I studied with country blues guitarist Woody Mann. I am a graduate f Berklee College of Music and have a good foundation of music theory, and try to incorporate this knowledge together with instrumental studies. I am a current Guitar Instructor at a local music school.

I taught and directed performances at the School of Rock for almost seven years. I can teach any style and figure out songs on the spot. I play in metal bands Nihilist and Monarch and was classically trained by Master Fred Benedetti at Grossmont College. I offer lessons in playing and theory. I'm confident I can bridge the gap to your goals.

Hi! I'm Amy and I love music and I think of teaching music as a way of coming beside someone to help them discover their own love for music, too.

My lessons are super fun and full of learning the skills that will get you to play songs right off the bat! We'll learn songs as soon as possible, so you can experience the enjoyment of learning music fast, and you'll also build the skills that you need to play guitar. I like to center my lessons around the interests of my students, but if you're not sure the direction you'd like to go into, I have lots of different ideas of avenues we can explore.

Music is all about expression. How are you going to express yourself if you don't sound good?

I like to teach my students in a way that THEY will be able to understand and enjoy.

If you are already able to play your instrument, I have tremendous performance experience that I would love to share and help you embellish and improve your performance skills.

I’ve been playing guitar for over 14 years and have immersed myself in blues, rock and metal. My lessons are tailored to the needs and goals of the individual and include tablature, playing by ear and theory; for people of all ages. I spent 3 summers taking intensive classes at the National Guitar Workshop; learning from some of the countries greatest guitarists. Currently I play in two bands; which tour occasionally and have multiple studio albums.

In my early days of learning guitar one of the most positive impacts for me was learning from a real rock guitarist; hanging out with him, hearing his stories, learning songs by ear and understanding the writing process. I would like to step up and continue passing down the torch to younger generations.
