Hello, my name is Eric. Lessons with me are learning fundamentals, reading music on the staff, and of course learning your favorite songs! I’ve been playing guitar for 25 years and took lots of lessons in that time. I developed my own way to approach the guitar, which I think could be more engaging for the student.

Give a man a fish, and you feed him once. Teach a man to fish for himself, and you feed him for a lifetime. My style of guitar teaching focuses on awakening your inner musician, so that very soon you won't need me anymore, and you'll just learn the instrument by yourself with little to no help from others. Music is the language of love. It is my honor to bring love into the world, one musician at a time

I’m a professional guitarist with a strong background in classical guitar, having completed both music school and college with a focus on classical training. Alongside my academic education, I’ve performed in various bands as an electric guitarist and also have experience playing bass. Working with me is relaxed, supportive, and tailored to each student’s goals. Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking to improve your technique, I focus on building a solid foundation while keeping lessons enjoyable and practical. I combine classical fundamentals (technique, posture, tone) with modern, real-world playing experience, so students get both
