Private Bass Guitar tutoring lessons Fairless Hills, PA.

Fun and personalized lessons for aspiring bassists of all ages. Whether you are a complete beginner or advanced, my years of experience can show you a practical approach to learning music and exploring the bass guitar. Enjoy learning your favorite songs in a relaxed environment at my studio or online from the comfort of your own home. My students have many different musical tastes and lessons are always unique from person to person. Learn at your own pace. I build my program around your interests and goals. Become the musician you've always wanted to be and have fun doing it!

Using your favorite songs form any genre of music students become familiar with musical scales, arpeggios, chords, music notation and theory, rhythm and ear training.

Focus on developing strong fundamentals of technique and reading while exploring different styles of music.

Students will learn the fundamentals of bass playing technique such as note reading, posture, groove, and dexterity exercises. Students will be exposed to various styles of music and bass playing and will be encouraged to bring in material from music they enjoy. As students learn and accumulate repertoire, they will be exposed to different performance techniques, ear training exercises, and improvisation skills. Students will be encouraged to improvise their own grooves in lessons as we cover different styles of music and the virtuosic bass players that made them groove!

We will play whatever the student would like to learn! I use the Hal Leonard Bass Method with students to give them a solid understanding of the fundamentals of bass guitar playing. I encourage my students to always find new songs that they would like to learn so we can go over them together.

Anyone can play bass, but not anyone can play like a true bassist! Learn how to play locked in with a drumkit and provide great rhythm to any band out there.

In our lessons students can expect to learn the ergonomics of playing comfortably and healthily as a foundation while starting out with reading music, basic music theory, and melodies. From there we learn how to embellish those melodies with other notes and start our way into harmony where we learn how and why music is structured the way that it is in real-world terms. This leads us into the history of how songs and pieces were written and we explore all of the possibilities of the instrument as we gradually get into more and more challenging pieces. Students then begin to write their own songs based on the concepts that they've learned. All of this happens at the students' own pace until they're comfortable enough to move on to the next challenge. Your musical journey is your own and will be done on your terms with a little friendly guidance.

My students feel like rockstars, because my lessons are both fun and educational.

I provide a clear lesson plan complete with goals, achievement levels, and performance opportunities.

I use a song-based teaching method to get students started on music they love.

I do not overbook myself to ensure that I can give each and every student the attention they deserve.

I believe in the power of music as a vehicle to teach life skills.

I was a music theory and composition major in college, so I understand how the bass works with the other instruments in a small band or large orchestra to enhance the overall sound of the group. In my lessons, I play other instruments (guitar and drums) with my bass students so they gain a complete understanding of their role in the band and are prepared to jam with their friends and get all the pleasure available to a solid bass player.
