Book a Zoom Lesson!

The video above explains my teaching philosophy, what to expect, and why I don’t recommend taking zoom lessons from me if you’re a complete beginner. Please also read this whole page before booking a lesson to avoid any frustration and misunderstanding!

If you’re considering lessons, I STRONGLY recommend that you first become a Patron of my online school. A whole year of membership costs less than one 55 minute private lesson. My school offers frequent live Q&A’s featuring my camera guitar, fun community writing challenges, and a library of hundreds of lessons. If you’re not familiar with the basics of music theory and the CAGED System, I strongly recommend spending some time on my Patreon BEFORE taking private lessons.

Before booking a lesson please make sure you have the following:
• A decent internet connection capable of handling zoom meetings
• A laptop or other device with a camera that lets me see your hands while you play guitar
• A device with a big enough screen to let you see my hands and my whiteboard

Other helpful ideas:
• PLEASE wear headphones during our lesson! Using your speakers instead of headphones during a zoom call can cause your audio to be muted or garbled on my end.
• Get to know Zoom software before our lesson so we can spend more time learning and less time troubleshooting. The default noise-suppression settings on Zoom only recognize the human voice, which means I can’t hear your guitar until you turn that setting off.

PLEASE NOTE:
• If you’re not interested in being creative, you will not enjoy our lessons

You know the old saying “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, but teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”

My goal is to teach you how to fish. I strive to develop all my students into independent musicians, capable of figuring out and learning what you want, capable of jamming with people or writing parts you like on guitar or bass - even learning to record yourself like a pro! When you learn to make your own music, you start to feel an intrinsic motivation to play music.

The window below is for scheduling one lesson at a time. After our initial lesson, you may request regular weekly lessons or continue using this page to schedule lessons at your own pace.
