Teaching & Other Details
My teaching approach is a combination of emotional experience and technical ability. In other words, I combine how you feel with how you play; I focus on building on the fundamentals, whether that's on the guitar, through voice, or otherwise, in a relaxed, open way. I prefer to base my lessons on material (music) that the student is already interested as opposed to adhering a rigid structure. My aim is for the student to have, after the lesson is over, something interesting, fun, achievable that they can work on in their spare time or between lessons.
Availability
I am most available during the week in the afternoons, or mid-morning/afternoons on weekends.
Preferred Teaching Place
At this time, I'd like to pursue teaching virtually over Google Hangouts, Zoom, Facebook, etc.. (I'm still experimenting with the best one!)
