Nathan Eddy Guitar Lessons

My teaching approach:

My approach is based on the student's learning. I will teach for each student...photo, verbal, repetition...anything needed. Every lesson is different. It's all up to the student.

My influences are:

Satriani, James Taylor, Hendrix...countless musicians and singers ranging from Country to Hip Hop.

My guitar lessons take place in:

The teacher's studio or the student's home

Guitar Lessons with me take place in the following areas:

Sherwood, AR - HWY 107 on the right just past Wal-Mart

Guitar Techniques:

Guidance In Equipment Selection, Song Writing, Scales and Exercises, Music Theory, Reading Music, Jamming Skills, Lead guitar, Rhythm guitar, Open tuning, Fingerstyle, Performance, Improvisation

Your first guitar lesson with me might include the following:

I ask a student what they know and then have them show me. I then ask them different questions regarding theory, songwriting, improv, and other things to see where they are. The first lesson is all about getting to know one another and where we stand. I'm a teacher...but I maintain a friendship with each student.

A guitar lesson with me might entail the following:

First question is always, "What do you know?" Followed by, "What do you want to know?" Unlike a lot of other teachers around, your lesson wont be 75% listening to what i can do. It's all about the student learning...and listening to me have a jam session doesn't really accomplish much.

The qualities I look for in an ideal guitar student might include the following:

Being an ideal student has nothing to do with what you are capable of. Potential and raw talent is great, but it's not everything. My ideal student is one who comes in wanting to learn...I teach the beginner. Once my beginner course is complete, I will send you to a more advanced teacher. So to sum it up, the ideal student is one who has a want and a willingness to learn.
