Having been a student under so many great teachers and having taught for many years, I KNOW how to teach. I know how to help my students get the results they're looking for and advance to reach their personal musical goals. Many of my students have become performing musicians, degreed in music from college, successful guitar teachers, play for their church's music ministry, or just enjoy playing as a hobby. I've played professionally since my teens in many musical scenarios and have additionally earned a living as a guitar instructor for many years, which is a joy for me to do.
