I've been a credentialed techer in Los Angeles for over 30 years and I retired from Los Angeles. Now I'm in Las Vegas enjoying myself and I love to teach guitar! Therefore, I'm looking to inspire and teach students that want to learn the joy of performing on the guitar - the most versatile and expressive of instruments.

How did you get started teaching?
I taught my first studet when I was 16. His first song was "My Sharona" by the Knack. I remember this because he was so happy that he learned the song and could finally play it well. THAT'S what teaching is all about - that connection with student and teacher - learning! It's is very gratifying for both.
What types of students have you worked with?
I've taught children as young as 4 all the way up to 75. I enjoy the different levels of coordination, concentration and motivation from all of my students. Always fun and exciting!
