My teaching approach :
University Trained Instructors Our instructors hold college degrees and have extensive teaching experience. Most importantly, our students have a proven track record of success because we are careful to only select well-trained, courteous, and patient instructors to be part of our teaching staff. All Ages, Styles, and Levels Our current students range from 5 years old to many students in their 60's and 70's. We currently teach beginner through advanced levels in guitar, piano, voice, and banjo. We are careful to teach you the necessary skills every music student needs to learn while at the same time being sympathetic to your own particular musical interests. We will teach you the music you want to learn so your lessons are motivating and rewarding. Private Lessons Our lessons are set up as private one on one instruction so you will have the undivided attention of your instructor and you can progress at a level suited to you individually. Regular Student Recitals Student recitals are held four times a year. Although not required, all students are encouraged to perform in the quarterly student recitals to build confidence and performance experience on their instrument. World Class Concert Series Our students and their families get preferred seating and discounts to the highly acclaimed Portland Classic Guitar Concert series where some of the top classical guitarists in the world have performed. Participation in the master classes held during the series as an auditor or performer is also available. Professional Learning Environment Our beautiful space located at Portland Classic Guitar will inspire you to achieve personal excellence. Each studio is clean, comfortable, and spacious for the best learning experience.
