About
In over 15 years of teaching students of all ages and abilities I’ve found one thing to be true: we learn best when playing music we love.Everything I teach is applied to the songs you enjoy. It doesn’t matter if it’s Duke Ellington, Led Zeppelin, or Adele—the basic principles of music are the same. You’ll be introduced to new artists and genres, too, as we cover the history and geography of the instrument. While learning songs we'll build a solid foundation of classical technique combined with style-specific concepts like Travis picking, blues bends, and sweep arpeggios. We'll study theory to learn how music is organized and use that knowledge to sight-read, improvise, and write music. Finally, we'll work on performing songs to connect with an audience, be it festival crowds or a group of friends around a campfire.

Vic is very professional and as a mother to a young student, he makes starting formal "lessons" easy and exciting. His teaching style is unique to the musician and my daughter said, "he even sings along like I do!" I would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to learn guitar.

Vic right off the bat in the first lesson gave me techniques and things to work on even if I decided to not continue on with him. He is very professional and born to be a teacher.

I have only had two half-hour lessons on ukulele, but have already learned a lot from Vic. He is knowledgeable, personable, prepared, on time, and able to explain well the techniques and principles of ukulele playing.

Vic has been able to figure out what level of knowledge I need to start at and explain things in an easy-to-understand, nonjudgmental way. I've had a good enough experience that I've decided to continue lessons with him for the foreseeable future.
