I am a graduate of Boston's Berklee College of Music. I have been playing guitar for 16 years, and have been teaching for 5 years. I can teach you how to read music, or how to read tablature, your choice. I can help you; Learn to play guitar Improve your Songwriting Improve your improvisation Get in to your school jazz band Wow your friends! *** Lesson Details *** My lessons are pretty laid back. I like to focus on the student and what they want to learn. My goal as a teacher is for my students to enjoy their instrument, and get personal satisfaction out of it. *** Studio Equipment *** separate room in house w/ seating for parents, music stands and amps, and guitars *** Travel Equipment *** I bring my guitar, and music. I have some core song material that I teach, then I take requests. All my student needs is his/ her guitar and an amp. *** Specialties *** I prefer to teach guitar via tablature, I feel that it keeps the student interested because it allows them to begin playing real songs almost immediately. I do teach students to read music at their request. I specialize in the rock and blues genres, but enjoy teaching any style aside from metal.
