    About Neil S.

    Extensive knowledge in various styles of guitar, ukulele, and music theory. I have two degrees in music therapy and psychology. As an educator, I believe in making the musical experience fun and educational by creating an individualized lesson plan that will provide each student with the best opportunity for success. I have worked with a wide range of students both in age from 4 to 90 years old. Also experience working with students who have learning disabilities. I believe that music is a life long journey of exploration! We need to learn from everyone, follow no one, watch for patterns, and most importantly work very hard. Due to covid-19 it is important to continue to grow and learn new skills. I have invested in high quality video cameras and audio equipment to provide the best quality lessons.
