About
Hello there! My name is Brenden and I have a strong background in teaching and performing music on the electric guitar. My plan is to teach simple concepts in a way that engages some critical thinking skills so the student can develop independence on their instrument.

Mainly beginners.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Communication is key. Be sure to let your teacher know what you want out of music lessons. There are many avenues you can take in this adventure and it always helps to remain open about what you actually want to learn.
