Private Acoustic Guitar tutoring lessons Richmond, VA.

I have been helping students reach their goals for over 20 years! I am a working musician and professional performer who has been involved in music my entire life. My teaching methods help students achieve success because I adjust to each student's needs and abilities, individually, to create a great experience. I couple traditional teaching with performances and offer professional student shows and concerts throughout the year to help enrich the experience! Above all, I teach you how to have fun and really enjoy your musical journey, lets get started today!

We focus on playing and writing music immediately, the theory is second, music playing and having fun is first!

I'm 31 years old and I have been playing music of all kinds since I was 15. I practiced 3 years before I actually played with anyone and once I did I learned so much more. I don't want you to make the same mistake, try out my 30 minute discount rate and we can make sure you are having fun and playing music in no time, if you want to expand into harder lessons then we can worry about that later.

My prices guarantee commitment for my students to practice what I teach. I started teaching more regularly and came across a lot of adults who wanted to learn, they would not practice during the week like most of my children do. Raising my price convinced these people to practice in order to truly get their money’s worth out of the lessons.

Whether you have just purchased your first guitar or have been playing for years, my lessons will help you achieve your musical goals. With over 10 years of playing experience under my belt as well as a degree in Music Performance, I am qualified to teach both electric and acoustic guitar. I construct personalized lessons so that each individual can learn at their own pace and comfort while still being able to enjoy a student oriented session.

Chords, rhythm, left and right hand coordination and technique, theory and more. The sky's the limit (the side of a campfire :))

Finger-style and flat pick approach

Music makes you smarter - proven fact! I've found guitar to be the most versatile, socially enjoyable, & personally rewarding instrument of all. Your life will become richer, guaranteed!! Let me guide you along this path, & you will soon understand :)
