About Me

I give guitar lessons!
Lessons are $25 per hour lesson. I work with beginners to intermediate players. I teach the basics and work forward using a very structured approach. I teach the instrument and general music and songwriting theory. If you or anyone you know is interested in guitar lessons, please send me a message and I can give you all the details.
