I am now offering online guitar lessons!
I am excited to announce that I am now offering online guitar lessons for rock, blues, funk, and fusion guitar!
You can work on lead guitar, theory, improvising, technique, ear training, songwriting, and just learning cool songs! I am happy to teach you how to play simple rock songs better, or go into some crazy fusion theory, such as how to play over altered dominant chords.
Lessons are $35 per half hour lesson, held once per week. If you pay monthly it is a flat fee of $140. (If there is a 5th lesson in a given month you don’t pay anything for that lesson.)
We can do lessons on Skype, Facetime, or Zoom.
My schedule only allows room for 12 students, so if you are interested contact me soon to schedule lessons!
