I teach live online guitar lessons for all levels - beginner to advanced.

There's no prepay & no deposit. Pay-as-you-go at the end of each lesson.

I work with students of all levels. Which level do you fit into?

• STARTING-FROM-SCRATCH STUDENTS: You don't know anything about the guitar or how to play. We’ll get you started with the guitar basics, like reading tab, playing chords, and strumming. You'll be playing and understanding your guitar after the first lesson.

• BEGINNER STUDENTS:  You've already spent a few months (or years) practicing beginner stuff, but you’re still at a beginner level. If you’ve been trying to learn from Youtube videos, then you’re probably very frustrated. We’ll clean up your guitar fundamentals and focus on the things that you need to know. You'll also learn a few songs and start soloing with basic scales.

• INTERMEDIATE STUDENTS: This is the level that most guitarists label themselves as. You know the guitar basics and you've got a short list of songs that you're working on, but your playing still doesn't sound good, including clunky strumming & poor soloing skills. Your blues isn't very bluesy. You play a lot of wrong notes and you're often not sure about the song key. If this sounds like you, then you’re not alone! These issues are common and easy to fix. We’ll work on things like rhythm counting & strumming, scales & modes, and techniques for better soloing. Plus, you'll develop ways to learn your favorite songs faster - up to one new song every week. You'll soon be on your way to an advanced level.

• ADVANCED STUDENTS: You know every note on the fretboard & every common chord, plus you know all or many of the modes & basic scales. You can strum decently and you can comfortably play over a dozen songs. You’ve also got good technique. However, your soloing isn't that great and you still (accidentally) play bad notes. You're still slow with determining relative keys/scales/chords. You're struggling to make your blues sound authentic. You’re completely intimidated by jazz (extended & altered) chords & theory. You might even be using the exact same strum pattern for every song. Basically, you're good but your playing is stale and you’re in a rut.

Don't worry - I'll help you solve all of these issues!

Whichever level you fit into, we'll fix and improve your guitar skills. I’ve helped guitarists of all levels to become their best guitar selves - for over 30 years! I’m 100% positive that you can too!

-I recommend weekly lessons because one week is enough time for you to get everything done and the routine is an important part of your success.

You’ll need a laptop, computer, or tablet, and an internet connection. I use Google Meet for video chat lessons, which is free. A few minutes before our scheduled lesson time, I’ll email you a link. You’ll click the link which takes you directly to our video chat session.

-I teach all styles, including rock, jazz, blues, country & bluegrass. I teach songs as well, including any song you want to learn! I’m an expert in music theory, including rhythm, scale, & chord theory, all of which we’ll work on as-needed.

-We can also develop other skills that you're interested in, such as ear training, songwriting, or reading standard notation (sheet music).

-Acoustic & electric guitars are both good.

Playing the guitar should be fun!
