Acoustic or Classical Guitar for Beginners: Fun and Performance-Driven

I started out self-taught in guitar, and then during college expanded into classical guitar. I enjoy teaching different styles of guitar - from chords, to tabs, to guitar techniques and scales. I teach all my lessons on acoustic guitar, which is a great foundation for all guitarists since the techniques on acoustic guitar can be applied to other types of guitar (electric, bass, classical, etc.). I customize all lessons to my student's goals, experience level and interests.

About Beth C.

5.0
(71)
Hi there! My name is Beth and I'm a private music lessons instructor. I specialize in customized, encouraging, and engaging instruction for each student, specific to their unique interests, experience level and goals. My teaching experience started primarily with teaching in-person lessons, however, in late 2019 I expanded to online lessons and have since had the privilege of teaching students all across the USA: California, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia, Washington, just to name a few. Teaching online has proven to be a very flexible, convenient, and effectual method of teaching and I’m excited to expand my online roster. In May 2011, I graduated from Texas Woman's University with my Bachelor's Degree in Music and a minor in Business Management. Music has been my passion since before I started taking piano lessons in third grade, and there was always an innate desire to master the keys. At age fifteen, I taught myself how to play guitar and started writing and performing original songs. In 2013, I became a published songwriter when my songs were produced on my church's Christmas Album ("Who Is This King?"). I have been teaching private piano lessons part-time from my home in 2011, and just a few years later transitioned into full-time teaching in January 2017. Throughout my teaching career, I have instructed over 250 students one-on-one and it is a dream come true to be able to invest all my time and energy into the precious gifts of my students. Teaching is my greatest passion, whether it's of the classical genre, musical theatre, theory mastery, or equipping a student to use their gifts in worship.  Feel free to contact me if you have any questions and I will be happy to discuss. I believe with you that you'll find just the right instructor to impart to your family!
