I have been playing fingerstyle guitar for 7 years and recently graduated with a degree in music from Roger Williams University. I can help you turn the acoustic guitar into a solo instrument playing the bass line, chords, drums, and melody all at once without editing or a loop pedal.

I am a classically trained guitarist, that also loves many other genres of music from pop to blues to rock. Whether you are looking to prepare for nyssma or college, or just want to learn a few chords and play some tunes, I can help make that process as easy and painless as possible. Seeing the progress my students make gives me a great sense of pride. I especially enjoy working with younger students. As a father of 2, seeing the excitement that children get when discovering music for the first time gives me a truly awesome feeling....

Pete is clearly a very experienced teacher. Not only will he give you all of the practical training you would ever need, you will leave realizing he subtly taught you some music theory and even the physics of the instrument.

His calm demeanor coupled with his love of learning and teaching music both make him an impeccable choice for aspiring musicians of all levels and interests looking to sharpen their skills.
