FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I usually will ask my students what their goals are in order to best serve the student. If the student would like to learn the fundamentals of solid guitar technique, we would learn modes, chords, arpeggios, along with repertoire. If the student wants to be able to strum chords and sing, then we would begin with chord shapes and strumming patterns etc. Every student is different and I like to bring out the specific strengths in my students.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have extensive experience in both playing music and teaching. I studied guitar at Berklee College of Music from 2012-2015. I was a tutor at Berklee as well so my knowledge of theory and ear training is very expansive. My first job after college was teaching music at a private elementary school. Since moving to Nashville I have gigged around town and have played writers rounds.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I began teaching music for extra money while I was an undergrad. Teaching comes very naturally for me and I really enjoy it.
