Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I always ask if there is any musical experience, if so how much. This is important to better suit the lessons according to where they stand. If there is no experience, I start with introducing easy cords for beginningers in order to get them excited about playing.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I hold an Associates of Arts degree in music studies, a Bachlor's of Arts degree in classical guitar studies and a Master's of Music degree in classical guitar performance. I have over 4 years teaching experience with students ranging from 7 years old to adult. I believe that as a teacher it is our job to find the best way that each student learns and form our lessons around that.
