Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: HI! My name is Sam Schacker. I grew up playing guitar in the Twin Cities, but now I live and work in Chicago. In online lessons, I help students learn what they'd like to play. I focus on technique and musicality, as well as practical understanding of harmony and form. I have a bachelor's degree in Classical Guitar Performance and Jazz Studies, and have been living and working in the Chicago area for ten years.

Sam is a great guitarist and a fantastic teacher. His insights into a large variety of musical topics will take any musician to a new level in their playing. He's an excellent pedagogue and I would not hesitate recommending him to any student, regardless of age or ability
