FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Your first lesson is free, $30 / hour afterward. I'll summarize each lesson in an email, usually the following day. Any lesson scheduled on your birthday is free.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I teach the student to play by ear as well as learning to interpret sheet music, TAB, chord charts, etc. The student and I will discuss their goals and musical experience to date. I'll then create a customized program to achieve their goals quickly. The best way to apply their musical training is to play with others, so I structure the training to enable the student to easily move into a musical ensemble.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
My training started with private lessons, learning the standards and jazz. I am a Certified Teacher of the Wernick Method. That certification was awarded to me by Pete Wernick of the internationally recognized band “Hot Rize”.
