Introduction: To be able to play guitar you must have some natural musical ability. Can you clap to the beat?...Sing "do re mi fa so la ti do?" If so, and if you're willing to invest ~30 mins a day, I believe I can teach you to play guitar. If you can't do the above, I think you're more likely to be wasting time and $ (just being honest, and I'm not about trying to get a bunch of your cash). I try to teach basic chords and rhythm FAST so the student doesn't lose interest. A few COOL tunes under your belt and you may get addicted! I really like to work with motivated students who really WANT to be a guitarist. That was me back when I was 20! Making music is AWESOME! Writing your own songs is even awesomer! Trust me!😎🎸

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
$30.00/hr. Standard pricing is $20.00/half hr. (=$40.00/hr), and with travel involved (I live in Hephzibah) a full hr just makes sense.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
What/who are YOUR musical favorites? I then formulate a plan, exercises, chords to practice; all in working toward learning some REAL songs that will motivate the student. Not a lot of theory, nor scales (for SOME TIME!).
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
34 years of playing guitar 9 years in a band (w/ CD proof) Singer/songwriter w/ 6 original professional CDs. Videos on YouTube (originals and covers). ~30 years playing in different church bands.
