The only way to get out of difficulty is to go through it.

My name is Mike and I have been playing the electric bass for 10 years, guitar for 8, and upright bass for 3. I offer beginner to advanced lessons on any of those instruments. I first began giving bass guitar lessons at the age of 16 after playing for only 2 years and advancing at an accelerated pace. I am a professional and perform several times a month with many different ensembles and musicians of various genres. Piano and voice are skills I have acquired through music college and I am also able to teach those two instruments at a beginner/intermediate level. I am still enrolled in college for music and continue to pursue my doctorates in music.
My lessons are based on the specific needs of the particular students. Whatever it is a student wishes to accomplish, I am there to guide a path, whether it be strengthening particular techniques, learning a favorite song, understanding ... read more

My teaching style varies from student to student based on playing level, musical interests, and personality. I use a mix of method books and aural learning techniques. The student's musical priorities always come first!
I have been playing music my whole life. I began playing piano at six years old, saxophone at ten, bass guitar at thirteen, and guitar at fourteen. Throughout my high school career I played a variety of rock band gigs on guitar, bass, and keyboards; I also played a variety of jazz gigs on saxophone. Currently I am a music student at William Paterson University, and am graduating this May with a degree in Jazz Saxophone Performance.

My comments on tutoring Bass Guitar : Basic to intermediate fundamentals of playing bass guitar. Learning actual songs, simple scales, finger technique, etc. Basic notation and tablature. Learning how to tune and do minor setup tasks to optimize sound and playability.

In both my technical business and music coaching backgrounds, I take two different approaches: - In a group class, I teach structured lessons with engaging group exercises where possible and time for Q&A. - In individual coaching, I assess each learner's intrinsic motivations (mastery, learning, recognition, etc.) for taking the lessons and then structure assignments that apply to and challenge these motivators.
As a Product and Project Manager with over 10 years of cumulative experience managing software, web and video game products to market, I offer students real-world perspectives and exercises to prepare them for real-world design, production, quality assurance, leadership and marketing careers. I tend to teach the concepts that are not found in textbooks and always challenge my students to think critically.

A Little Bit About Me...

Mike's Guitar Studio is based on the belief that the students needs are of the utmost importance. The Studio is committed to meeting those needs. As a result, a high percentage of our business is from repeat customers and referrals. Lessons are catered towards what the student wants to learn. There is no one method that works for each student. Each student has different ways of learning, we recognize this and apply it to our teaching policy. The Lessons should be a fun and positive experience as the student progresses on his or her instrument. The primary instructor/ owner, Mike Benninger, has a B.M. in music performance from Keene State College and a M.M. in music performance from the Yale School of Music. Mike's Guitar Studio is located in New Windsor in Mike's Home Recording/Music studio. Recording can be an added tool for recording lessons, songs, pieces, and ideas.
