My teaching approach :

I consider every student as a unique individual with their own goals, desires and capabilities. Then I design a lesson plan to enable the student to enjoyably progress toward their particular program. I always consider how I would like to have lessons presented to me if I were the one who was receiving them and trying to achieve my own ambitions. By doing this, I can keep a good perspective on how to precisely tailor a lesson to accommodate the unique direction of each students instruction.

A guitar lesson with me might entail the following

We will review your previous lesson material and work on any troubled area as well as answer any questions that you may have. Then we will look at new material. Of course, we will always work toward achieving your goals and desires. The experience of Playing and Learnig Guitar, quintessentially, should be enjoyable...

Your first guitar lesson with me might include the following

You First Lesson is FREE... I offer this because I believe that this 'First Encounter' is a key opportunity to collaboratively assess your current aptitude, musical history, goals and desires. I also believe that it is essential for you to know that you can be at ease and comfortable in your learning environment. Feel free to bring any music, books or questions with you.

The qualities I look for in an ideal guitar student might include the following

One who 'Desires' to learn... It is the desire to learn that creates motivation and accelerates the learning process. Ideally, if possible, a top guitar student, motivated by desire, will be able to devote some time per week to practice what they are learning.
