Sara Judge, Teacher
About
Hi! My name is Sara Judge. I have been performing and playing guitar for over 20 years. I am a guitar teacher that focuses on a combination of technique, learning to read music, and most importantly harnessing your creativity. I find out what my students are passionate about and tailor lessons to fit their needs and help them fulfill their goals.
I am an accomplished songwriter and can help students interested in songwriting get started, develop their techniques, learn how to arrange their song, and perfect their own style.
I first started teaching acting to teens at the Walnut Street Theatre in Philadelphia. I am trained as an actress and have won awards for my performances (Entertainment Slam 2006, PACT Festival 2007, SF Frozen Film Festival 2009 and 2010 Best Musical Performance). I am currently the Director of the Youth Film Program with the San Francisco Frozen Film Festival.
I am a member of the Playwrights Center of San Francisco and a member of Theater Bay Area.
I have directed over 30 plays in Philadelphia and San Francisco. I work with professional actors to help them make the best use of their instruments--the voice and the body.
I love working with children, teens, adults, and Seniors--anyone who has the passion to work on their craft and hone their skills (while having fun!). My style is open, fun, and student driven. My goal as a teacher is to equip you with the skills you need to reach your goals as a guitar player, a songwriter, a performer, and/or an actor. I teach private individual lessons, small groups, and scene study classes.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I offer a free 25 minute lesson where we talk about my student is interested in learning and what they want to accomplish. I find out what their favorite music is, what they are passionate about about, and I tailor lessons to keep them inspired and help them fulfill their goals. A student will leave the first free session with some useful tools to improve their craft.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated from Rutgers University with a Bacholer of Arts in Psychology and Theater Arts.
I have been performing on stage and playing guitar for over 20 years. In addition to being a registered Music Together Teacher for ages 0-5, I am a guitar teacher for all ages.
I am an accomplished songwriter and can help students of all ages interested in songwriting get started, develop their techniques, learn how to arrange their song, and perfect their own style. You can check out some of my own original songs here.
