Methodology
We'll talk first about about goals and music inspiration. I want to find what makes you passionate about guitar! If there's previous experience, any current strengths/weaknesses with the guitar. We'll cover tuning, chords, rhythm, improvisation, and fun learning techniques.
Background
I've worked professionally as a guitarist for the past 15 years. In that time, I've shared the stage with Grammy-winning artists and had my music featured on television. I have extensive knowledge of chords, scales, improvisation, musical theory, etc.
