About Rhett
I’m a guitar tutor with a BM in World Music, focused on Guitar Traditions, and over 7 years of teaching experience. I specialize in combining academic insight with high-octane, real-world technique—especially in metal, shred, and progressive rock. My goal is to help students build blazing speed, technical precision, and fearless stage confidence. Whether you're a young learner picking up your first riff or an adult revisiting your musical dreams, I shape lessons around your personal goals. From alternate picking and sweep arpeggios to tapping and speed-building drills, we’ll dive deep into the mechanics of shred. I also bring in global influences from my studies to add unique color to your phrasing and style. Lessons are active, structured, and tailored to fit how you learn best. I believe in slow practice with fast results. We'll break down complex solos, analyze your favorite players, and create custom exercises to sharpen every finger. I love seeing students unlock new tempos they never thought possible. Along the way, we’ll explore tone control, gear choices, and phrasing tricks that set pros apart. If you're ready to level up your playing and shred with clarity, let's get started—your next breakthrough is one session away.

My guitar teaching approach focuses on building strong music reading skills from the ground up. I combine standard notation and tablature so students can move confidently between both systems. We work through sight-reading exercises that gradually increase in difficulty, always matched to your pace. Rhythm notation is introduced early and revisited often, helping you feel secure when reading any musical style.
Understanding how to interpret written music is key to playing in classical, jazz, and ensemble settings. My lessons use short excerpts, real repertoire, and customized reading drills. I’m especially effective in guiding students who want to master traditional reading, whether you're exploring jazz charts or classical scores. I support learners in breaking down complex passages into simple, clear patterns.
We also explore strategies for recognizing intervals and musical phrases quickly. You’ll develop strong visual-to-fretboard coordination and lasting confidence. Let’s unlock the world of written music—one note at a time.
