About
I am a full time music producer/sound designer for Tv and Film. I started teaching in 2011 because I found that people are continually frustrated by not getting the most out of their time learning music or improving their craft. I teach in a way that transforms the lives, playing and music of my students in ways that most instructors are unaware of. I make it as "real world" as I can whether it's playing a guitar, writing a song or producing music on your laptop. Having had success in the music industry, I can provide advantages over the typical small room in a music shop where the instructor has been sitting for 2 decades. No cookie cutter lessons from a book here. For example: If you're learning guitar I'll provide materials to help you along and make custom tracks to help you practice, or if you are studying production I'll give you specific assignments to make you better. My knowledge becomes your knowledge! My life is built around making music professionally and I love to share my knowledge and experience with others! Is there a better job? I'm an experienced composer/producer, guitar, bass and sax performer of 20+ years available for eager and enthusiastic students of all levels and ages! I structure my lessons based on whatever style the student is interested in while using a basic foundation of guitar knowledge. I specialize in rock, blues and folk and use various exercise techniques and books to teach. I have amps, recording gear, music and custom tracks available to use during lessons. Now lets Rock and Roll!

Kyle has been awesome to work with. He's been teaching me a combination of Ableton production and basic music theory. He's super patient and willing to work at my pace, and he is willing to tackle any topic I throw at him. I would highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking to learn more about music!

Kyle is a fantastic music teacher, and a great guy in general. I have taken lessons from a lot of good teachers, but what really stands out with Kyle is how flexible he was, and focused on helping me reach *my* musical goals. He is the best teacher I've had when it comes to helping me work through ruts. Whenever I felt stuck, he would give exactly the right kind of guidance to help me work through it. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn about the guitar or music in general.

Kyle is a guy who really knows his stuff. His approach to music theory is explained in a more modern approach and allows me to focus on what I need to do to get better at music. Kyle is very professional and has all the tools and equipment to help you reach any goals you may need. I would definitely recommend Kyle to others!

Details: Guitar • Intermediate • 26 - 44 years old • Fundamentals (pitch, rhythm, chords, etc.) • Harmonization • Music subjects (notation, analysis, ear training) • 60 minutes • I travel to the music theory teacher

Kyle is a really fantastic teacher. He possesses a massive bedrock of knowledge and experience, meaning that whatever problems you have or whatever you're trying to accomplish with guitar he can help you. He's professional of course but the one-on-one sessions with him are comfortable and laid-back in nature, which, in my opinion, is the best way to learn. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their guitar playing.
