My hope is to share the love and joy of music with people of all ages, and to instill an appreciation for music that will last a lifetime. I'm committed to the success of each of my students, and creating lesson plans that are designed to meet the specific needs and desires of each individual student. My teaching style ensures that my students not only learn the musicality of the instrument, but have fun while playing. *** Specialties *** My personal performance specialties are singing and playing in blues, rock, reggae, folk, and indie/alternative.

    He was excellent! Very patient and explained what he was teaching in a way my 7 year old could understand.

    I bought these lessons for my 14-year-old son to improve his cello playing. Josh was personable and easy to follow. He was flexible with our schedule. Would definitely recommend him and I will likely continue lessons over the summer.
