Adult Novices and Beginners
Are you just beginning or you've been trying to learn on your own for a while but don't seem to be getting anywhere?
I will help you make sense of music and how it works. I meet you at your level and teach in language you can understand.
Eliminate the frustration of trying to figure it out yourself. YouTube videos can only get you so far. You need feedback from a professional, which will streamline your efforts and save you a lot of hassle and discouragement.
Overcome obstacles. Get tools, guidance and training that directly address your playing challenges.
Begin to make music quickly. Private instruction and the guidance of an expert teacher will help you make solid and rapid gains in your playing ability.
Establish proper playing habits from the beginning with tutelage from a masterful player. Avoid ingraining poor playing habits and improper technique and having to retrain your fingers later.
Learn music through playing your favorite songs and styles of music. Your goals and interests determine your curriculum.
Grow at your own pace with a patient, inspiring teacher.
"Wayne worked with me to identify where my skills can be improved. We have broken these areas down into simple steps that are easy to understand and easy to practice. We have been building on each little piece, and I can finally see and hear my skills changing. He helped me to relax and learn how to enjoy playing guitar again."
-- Walt Papierski
