Introduction: Being largely self-taught, with some help along the way- I have a "non-traditional" way of teaching using patterns, computer software such as Capo, as well as teaching the basic music vocabulary that a new musician may come across. Having been a Professors assistant at the Tech College in Madison I can proudly say that I can communicate effectively with anyone willing to listen, and I can tailor my presentation in many ways so it is easily understood. I also have built an electric guitar and know how to properly adjust guitars to make them easier to play, sound better and keep them "healthy." I love music!!! I love the excitement of learning a new instrument and watching musicians progress from hardly being able to play to playing open mic nights, being a street musician, or possibly even getting gigs down the road. Music is a universal language, whether sad or happy it speaks volumes. My favorite part is when I'm playing and people are dancing and celebrating life!!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing system is 20/ lesson, which is an hour long. No call- no shows still must pay, unless there is 24 hour notice, or proof of circumstances (emergencies). Each student must buy one of two tablature books after the first lesson. I will show you both of them and advantages and disadvantages of both. Each student should also have a tuner for their guitar, eventually have a Capo, and a spindle of blank Cd's. Otherwise Cd's will be an additional charge of 5-10 dollars a month depending on how many Cd's I burn for you. Be on time!!!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I do as much as I can, and am always trying to learn more about all aspects of the music industry.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I love playing music. learning from students about music I've never heard of is extremely enlightening. And after 5 years studying Functional Art, I realized I should have been a music major from the start.
