Private Guitar tutoring lessons Linden, VA.

Each lesson is tailored to fit each individual student. We will cover genres of music that is of interest to you, using music you enjoy most so learning the guitar will be fun. Even if you have experience playing guitar, I will be able to show you alternative strum patterns, picking patterns, useful techniques, tricks and short-cuts to make playing easier. This applies to whether you are learning acoustic, classical or electric guitar. I have a blast teaching and my students have fun learning!

Specializing in jazz guitar, I teach styles. My main focus is to assess your playing and quickly look for ways for you to improve. I'm a gigging musician, playing at local coffee shops and hotels at least once a week for the last 10 years, and I like to pass on skills that are crucial to real-life playing situations.
