About
I have been teaching guitar and electric bass a long time at my studio in NYC on the upper Westside (10025). But because of the Pandemic I am only teaching online.Although I am a jazz musician/composer/ recording artist/ performer, author and journalist, I love teaching. I teach all genres and levels of music including improvisation, harmony, theory and composition etc. I may charge a little more, but many students come to me from other teachers because there is so much lacking in their musical education. All my lessons are customized to meet the students’ needs. I use all available tools such as, the internet, mp3's, pdf and customized each lesson for each student.
If you have time, please read an article I wrote for All About Jazz. It describes what’s important in a good teacher:
