Introduction: I have been teaching private guitar/bass for 14 years and have performed in many local clubs, theaters, schools etc. Many of my students have gone on to careers in music, however I am also very experienced in teaching beginners or people who just want to play as a hobby. My goal as a teacher is to teach music fundamentals (theory, reading, counting) through the music that the student loves.
Playing guitar is very fun, but it can be frustrating when you're getting started. Having a teacher helps a lot! Seeing students master music theory, become comfortable improvising, learn their favorite song, or perform in front of their first audience is always a very proud moment for me as a teacher.
