I can teach basic guitar methods from lesson books. However, I really enjoy teaching blues guitar in the styles of Stevie Ray Vaughn, Kenny Wayne Wayne Shepherd, etc. I enjoy teaching lessons that are geared toward music that the student enjoys. I find it rewarding to the student when they realize they can play styles and genres of music they love to listen to.

I primarily focus on the classical genre (including Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Romantic, Twentieth Century, and Contemporary eras). I have found if one can play classics well, it is easier to learn pop music.

Children's Instruments for Miniature Musicians

Children’s Instruments for Miniature Musicians

May 29, 2009   Marisa Belger

As W flings his miniature body across his miniature piano, creating an avalanche of sound with his stomach and knees and feet (note: his hands are nowhere near the keys), I wonder if he inherited his father’s musical ability or if he’ll end up like me—tone deaf and instrument-phobic, left playing the egg shaker at his in-laws’ family gatherings.

I hope for the best and so encourage his musical experimentation (until the headache creeps up and begs for a quiet, introspective child prone to reading and drawing and other silent activities) with a variety of kid-sized instruments like Melissa and Doug’s piano complete with color-coded keys and songbook.
