About Michael
I have taught since i was in high school. I was a gymnast, and found that i had a natural ability to teach what i learn, through detailed explanation, great patience and encouragement, and the discipline required to accomplish. I develop a partnership with students, which leads to greater communication, which leads to success.

About the lesson
- All levels
- English
Languages in which the lesson is available :
English
I generally cater to the student's desire and what they want to learn.
i then begin teaching necessary techniques for learning the material while "breaking things down" to their most basic level, and moving up from there
Generally, i want each student to walk away from a lesson knowing the goals required so they can learn as quickly as possible
I thoroughly enjoy working with anyone with a sincere desire to learn.
the primary styles i prefer (in NO PARTICULAR ORDER -include:
Rock/pop/punk/alternative 70's-current
how to be in a band, songwriting, ear traing
and learning bass and piano from the guitar knowledge you acquire
how to learn songs by ear
how to read sheet music and TAB
classical guitar
Fingerstyle solo arrangements of popular songs
age preferences: teens and everyone older
experience preferences: some music experience preferred but not required, beginner is great too!

Michael is an amazing musician! I’ve been able to show him one song I like and he’s already playing it perfectly after just one or two listens. He is the nicest guy and is definitely one who will constantly work with you. He is so educated when it comes to music and the guitar. Not only does he demonstrate this simply just by his skills but also by his passion for music. He could play the guitar every second of everyday if he could and I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is either brand new to the guitar or even if you have a little experience. I have no doubts that he could help anyone become an amazing musician.
