Introduction
I sang and played guitar and bass for about 45 years, wrote songs, taught private guitar lessons for 4 music studios, 1 music class in a private elementary school, and adult education classes at 3 Broward County high schools. I owned and operated my music business for around 40 years, as a teacher/instructor, singer/musician, entertainer, and DJ/MC. I Performed as a solo artist and played with several bands during a 30 year period. I sing (tenor) and play acoustic and electric guitar, bass or ukulele. Most of my 500+ songs are classic hits from the sixties and seventies, including country, folk, rock, pop, and standards. I like to help others to enjoy a fun hobby and personal satisfaction to achieve success in self confidence by mastering an instrument. I have taught over a thousand students from 7 to 70 in roughly 40 years.

Michael S Dan is an excellent Guitar Teacher. He has an easy approach to learning the fret board and a friendly method for learning strumming patterns. Dan has plenty of hand out material for learning and understanding the relationship between Major and Minor Petatonic scales. There is much to be learned from this Gentle Man. Thanks Dan

Dan is one of the best guitar instructors. Ive had several, but I really feel comfortable with Dan. His approach and teaching shills surpass prior guitar instructors I’ve experienced. Very patient. Very professional!! 😎
