Guitar Lessons

Overview and methodology

My teaching style is hands on and big picture- I teach how to hear and understand music with a focus on guitar. We will work on understanding the application of music theory and harmony to whatever music the student would like to learn. All of my students will work on piano, drums, and bass playing - but our focus is definitely guitar. I only take on 10 students at a given time, and I teach in person lessons out of my studio on Mondays. I’m currently not taking on new students (January 2024), but I do have a a waiting list. Please reach out on my contact page if you would like to be placed on my waiting list and I will notify you when a spot in my studio becomes available.

pricing and payment

I encourage my students to take 1 hour lessons as I have found this is the sweet spot where we can cover the most material and not feel rushed. Beginning students will typically take 30 minute lessons for the first 2 months while they learn fundamentals and develop muscle strength in their hands, but as they progress we will transition to 1 hour lessons.

Payment is billed in rears at the end of the month. I will send a Venmo request for payment on the last day of the month. If Venmo is not an option, I will give a paper invoice at the last lesson of the month and payment can be made with cash or check payable to AUM Guitars, Inc.
