Introduction: Hi!
Hello - PLEASE DO NOT CONTACTS ME FOR LESSONS UNLESS you definitely want lessons with me. I live in NYC and can only teach in-person lessons in New York. Online lessons via zoom are available. My rates are $100 for online lessons of one hour. $80 for online lessons of 45 mins. And $60 for online lessons of 30 mins. In-person lessons are a bit more for travel time.
My lessons are fit for your own personal tastes, interests, and goals. I take extra time so each lesson is understood and I leave the you with enough to work on. Our session will be relaxed and not have a rushed feel. Each lesson will be about an hour but I do not end the lesson until I feel the students have really taken in the teachings.
With 20+ years as a professional musician, I can share knowledge of the industry outside of playing your instrument. I like teaching all ages, and find it most rewarding zoom Lessons come with a video of the lesson and pdf recapping the lesson to practical, also “guitar pro” file can be sent, if the student has the app or the desktop program. I enjoy helping adults who want to learn later in life. Open to all ages but require that the student is passionate about playing and learning. I have experience in jazz, metal, rock, classical, funk, blues, country, and world music.
