My Philosophy as a Guitarist & Instructor
Music is not just about playing the right notes—it's about understanding the "why" behind those notes and expressing your unique voice as a musician. My approach combines technical excellence with creative freedom, grounded in a deep understanding of music theory and its real-world applications.
I believe every student, regardless of age or experience level, has the potential to become a confident, versatile musician. My years working with students of all ages have taught me how to adapt my teaching style to match each person's learning pace and musical goals. Whether you're a complete beginner or an advanced player looking to expand your horizons, I'm here to guide you on your musical journey.
In my lessons, we focus on building skills that last—critical listening, problem-solving, and musical intuition. You'll learn not just how to play, but how to think like a musician and make informed, creative decisions in any musical situation.
