Professional Guitar Instructor
Methodology
I am a Professional Musician and Guitar Instructor out of Houston, TX. I teach everyone from beginners, to advanced musicians; young and old. The techniques I use depend upon the student. Everyone learns differently and everyone has different goals that they want to achieve. I try and adapt to the learning scale of the individual I am teaching while also teaching very substantial music theory base.
Background
I have been a guitar instructor for over 5 years, teaching many different styles and different students of all levels. I have taught well over 30 different individuals since becoming an instructor. Out of all of those students, most of them have a desire to continue their training into college and eventually into performing. I have had some say that they wanted to be an instructor at some point, while others saying that they love the sense of accomplishment just from learning a hobby. Whatever your goals, learning the guitar can change your life.
