I WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE…seriously!
Thank you for using Thumbtack. They are a very professional company and have helped me so much since I began working with them in 2012. I love working with beginners and making their musical journey rewarding and fun
Now is the perfect to time learn guitar and can be done effectively online. It will relax you and teach you something you will sincerely appreciate for years to come.
I have worked with Thumbtack for over a decade and started a nonprofit music educational foundation registered in Colorado in 2017. I do live/multimedia performances in Senior Centers, Homeless Shelter, Hospices and some other strange places as well.
I love teaching music so much and I have learned so much from my 80+ students. It is my calling. My lessons will inspire us both to become better musicians, freer people and help ignite the Fires of Creativity and Self Expression deep within. I guarantee I can teach you to learn to form and change chords quickly. cleanly and faster than anyone I know by a method I developed based on neuro-physics that makes it a breeze.
My students generally are not trying to become rockstars. They are beginners of any age seeking to be part of this Magical journey. I make it easy and help you avoid the mistakes I encountered over 62 years of study.
I focus initially on rhythm which is barely understood by most but can be learned with patience. I do “Rhythm Workshops For Kids” that are a blast and help many to find a means of expression without any formal musical training. “Shaker Eggs”; hand percussion instruments the size of an egg; (like maracas) have many nuances of sound. I have a collection of over 100 eggs donated by Sweetwater Sound and when I perform at events the audience each gets an “egg” and becomes my rhythm section. The events are video recorded.
I have worked with students from 6-65. One was accepted at the amazing Berklee College of Music in Boston; probably the best place to study non-classical music.
My method will take you to the next level of ability will transform you in ways you cannot believe.
I do not accept all applicants as I don’t need to do so. As mentioned, your response costs the Professional even if not hired so please choose carefully remembering LESSONS ARE ONLINE ONLY! Many don’t get this!
My students must demonstrate dedication and devotion. I allow 2 months of lessons then students are re-evaluated and we proceed from there. I specialize in quickly analyzing where to begin with beginner-medium level students and what skills need attention. I relate well with my students because they know I care and my lessons often become counseling sessions.
I recently heard from one of my first students from Thumbtack who called just to see how I was and thank me.
I’m a retired Commonwealth’s Attorney for Pennsylvania though I still love teaching, However I’m very busy but will never turn down someone seeking the existential joy of connecting with others through performing live.
I sincerely appreciate and welcome new students and will do everything to make the experience worthwhile and fun. I’m very patient.
Helping others to experience how wonderful it is to be able to play music from their hearts and to see how this ability transfers to other areas of their lives beyond Music is my mission
