Steve Asbell Guitar Lessons

My teaching approach:

My approach to teaching is very simple and direct. Focus on what the student is interested in learning. I do not give "half-hour" lessons. All lessons are 1 hour minimum. I possess a wealth of teaching aides that I have created over many years. My students are provided with whatever materials they need to achieve their personal goal(s). My studio, "The Jam Room", is fully equipped for the student's maximum convenience. For those who feel that, "Hearing is believing", go to the website link in this profile.
