in general, I get a lot of people that ask me how to play this song or that song, and learning songs is great. But if you don't understand the underlying principles and theory behind the music, then all you're learning is where to put your fingers and when, but not why. I teach about music theory and how it correlates to the guitar, I also specialize in teaching Blues Guitar with an emphasis in lead guitar.

Lessons with Tim were always fun and productive. He gave specific suggestions about technique to give me a better sound and he taught me a variety of ways to practice that continue to help me learn and understand jazz standards today. In addition to all of this, Tim is very encouraging and he creates a safe and fun learning environment.
