Today I perform playing my own solo guitar arrangements. After teaching 14 years and 12 years of retail management, I owned a music store with several teachers and sold high-end Acoustic instruments. In the last ten years I have taught music part time while having a performing career. Today I find I am teaching professional players who want to learn Jazz, Flamenco, or Classical guitar.

A Little Bit About Me...

I like to teach individual or group lessons. At college of the Desert, I had a reputation for being an easy going with a lot of patience when tutoring. My teaching philosophy is to listen to the student and to focus in his or hers needs. I use scientific or graphic calculators when needed. Also, I use computer software to accelerate their learning experience.
I have been in school the last 10 years. I earned two Liberal Arts degrees in 2005. I also earned a BS in Civil Engineering from Cal Poly Pomona in 2009. During my college years, I tutored college level math and college level physics. I also worked for a private tutoring company in Montclair, CA. My specialty are Math, Chemistry and Physics. I also speak fluent Spanish.
