Introduction: Hi, my name is Joseph. I'm a working guitarist, composer, and bandleader in the Portland area. I earned my Bachelor of Music in Jazz Studies from PSU, and I like to play everything from jazz to metal to funk! My favorite part of being a guitar teacher is helping students find their unique voice on the instrument. Whether you want to learn guitar for fun, or you're trying to make it as a pro musician, I'd like to help you meet your goals and enrich your life with music. Topics I regularly cover with students: - Learning to play music by ear - Guitar technique for effortless playing - Music theory and sight reading - Soloing and improvisation - Songwriting/Composition - Audition preparation
