    About Jared C.

    5.0
    (16)
    I have been playing instruments and performing live since I was eleven. In college, I studied both piano and guitar, and received a bachelors of fine arts with a concentration in jazz guitar from Columbia College Chicago in 2004. I moved to Seattle in 2004 and have been performing and giving private music instruction full time since 2010. My students enjoy that I customize each lesson to their interest and My emphasis on music theory in their lessons. The biannual student recitals is definitely a highlight for my students. I have successfully helped students reach many goals including the following: 1) Play and sing songs 2) Join a band 3) Prepare for high school jazz band auditions 4) Join a church music group 5) Prepare for an open mic 6) Learn how to accompany a vocalist 7) Write original songs 8) Help prepare songs for a performance with School Of Rock, or other similar organizations Contact me for a free consultation to see if I'm the right teacher to help you reach your goals!

    He pays attention to detail, is super organized with a definite plan and knows how to keep a student's interest. He is balanced and very realistic in his approach. He is talented and meets the student where he is. He is even transcribing a Bollywood song for my son and my son is loving it! He is flexible... We are so happy to have found him.
