Biography

I work as a freelance guitarist and have been teaching guitar since 2002.<br />
<br />
My approach to teaching focuses on enabling students to think and learn for themselves.<br />
<br />
I emphasise the importance of gaining fingerboard knowledge through the study of chords, scales and arpeggios.<br />
With this awareness,the dedicated student can achieve a solid understanding of the instrument and gain a musical ear.<br />
This empowers them to continually learn and develop their own ideas.<br />
<br />
I ensure that students are competent in the basics before moving on to tailor the course towards their goals as a musician.<br />
<br />
I teach on acoustic,electric,nylon string and lapslide,and can assist with the development of most chosen styles.
