Lessons - Overview
Thanks for considering me for your guitar instruction! I teach beginning to intermediate students a variety of styles for electric and acoustic guitar.
Lessons are weekly, and are held on-site in the student's home. They are one hour in duration (including a few minutes for set-up and take-down). A formal lesson program is used. I also choose and create exercises the student will enjoy learning and playing, based on their preferred style of music. This makes the process of learning guitar fun, while challenging the student and sharpening their skills.
Regular practice is strongly encouraged to reinforce concepts we cover during the lessons. It also increases dexterity, finger strength, flexibility, and comfort in playing - all essential to becoming a proficient player. Expect to spend at least twenty five minutes most days of the week on practicing assignments. We'll work toward being able to play each assignment very well before proceeding, because each assignment builds a foundation for the next. Learning guitar is challenging and requires the discipline of practice...but the benefits are incredible!
