I maintained a student-centered approach where the teacher is a facilitator. I am confident teaching any age, but specialize in middle school or high school students. I enjoy finding out what students already know and try my best to go from there, modifying my strategies and techniques to fit their needs and interests.
I am a teacher who has taught hundreds of students. Students who learn with me gain valuable life and technical skills. I have been playing guitar for 15 years and have years of experience in teaching public school. I hope to reach and teach even more students.
