FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I charge $30 for half hour lessons. If you take weekly hour lessons (which I highly recommend) I will cut you a break and charge only $50 per hour.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I start with the chromatic scale. What? I know is one of the hardest scales to play on guitar, but either if you are a beginner or you are intermediate, you need t know where the notes are on the fretboard before you can play anything. Next we move to learning chords including such chords like Em7b5, the so called half diminished. You know, nowadays chords like this are not only in jazz songs but they appear in ballads or even in contemporary Christian songs!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am pretty much self taught, but I study with Bob Palmier (University of Miami) He was instrumental for me to understand the principles of Jazz and to achieve better techniques. I will be always in debt to him for what he has showed me.
