Classical Guitar Lessons in Memorial. Amazing Teachers.

My curriculum includes notes in relation to fretboard, chord shapes and construction, theory, sight singing and ear training, scales, improvisation, strumming/picking techniques, and more. I can come to you!

My students will have the opportunity to learn music theory and perform their favorite songs from any genre in my lessons. Throughout my 27 years of playing the guitar and 17 years of teaching it, I have learned that patience and practice are what defines a great guitarist. During my lessons, the student will not be rushed, and they will not feel uncomfortable nor nervous in my setting. Overall, their time will be used effectively when they are with me. Understanding is one aspect, but practice completes the process. A student has to practice at home as well. They will be provided practice sheets or online exercises to help them achieve that effectively.

I have been playing and teaching for the last 15 years.
My style is focused on technique and finding passion.
In order to play well, you first need a love for the instrument.

I teach a detailed, task oriented approach to technique which leads to quick progress.

Hi! My name is Chris and Ive been playing guitar for over 15 years. I've been teacher for about five. With me you will really gain and understanding and appreciation for what a guitar really is and how to use it to better yourself emotionally and intellectually. My rates are flexible, especially when not using this website (they charge the student almost double what the teacher earns), but we can talk about that in the future.

Studied with Bruce Holzman and grad students at FSU. Played masterclasses for Antigoni Goni and Dimetri Diatchenko
