Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: We believe that all children should have the opportunity to have musical education. Right now, we are primarily teaching guitar and ukulele. JJ Music exists to equip musicians at whatever level of competency to pursue their dreams. We desire that all artists find fulfillment in their craft. We believe that kids should learn how to read music and play by ear. Sheet music provides the fundamentals they'll need to grow while playing by ears makes learning music fun and something they can do anywhere. The primary materials we use for instruction are: Guitar for Kids - Hal Leonard Guitar Method Ukulele for Kids - The Hal Leonard Ukulele Method and our own material that we've put together. Who We Teach Whether you are a beginner guitarist, or a seasoned shredder, I share your enthusiasm, and will design a lesson plan that will take you where you want to go on your musical journey. What You'll Learn We will help you build and polish a strong foundation of Technique, Theory, Improvisation & Repertoire. We will explore sight reading, groove, harmony and melody, and examine how different rhythms and scales function in real musical situations. How it Works Bring in any music, either notated on sheet music, or on an iPod or CD, and we'll learn how to play like your favorite musicians, or how to make the songs your own! We Love Teaching Kids We especially love teaching kids and find it very fulfilling to see them grow in music. We're excited to focus primarily on guitar and ukulele lessons.

JJ is a very accomplished guitar player and a very good instructor. Not only can he play guitar, but he's also great at mandolin, banjo and the pedal steel guitar. I would gladly recommend him to any friends or family wanting to learn how to play any of these instruments.
