I teach differently to different people. For me, its about understanding what a Student wants to do with guitar and then helping them work towards that goal. Different people want different things. Ive been teaching privately since 1999 and Ive always offered the First Lesson as a Free Intro Lesson. I think its a great way to get to know students, and for students to get to know me.

The idea of the Free Intro Lesson is to provide a opportunity for anyone to try out a Lesson. There are a lot factors to consider when choosing a guitar teacher. With the Free Intro Lesson, you can come by and see if you like the way I run lessons, see if you like the commute, & see if this is the direction you want to head in. Its a full-fledged lesson, but usually well spend a little more time at the beginning talking about what you want to do with guitar lessons.
