Teaching Philosophy
I believe music should be fun and inclusive and that everyone deserves the opportunity to learn an instrument, whether it be as a casual hobby or taken more seriously. Learning an instrument has a tremendous potential to improve the quality of anyones life. I look forward to working with new students of all ages and helping them build a relationship with music. I believe that one of my greatest strengths as an educator is my ability to bring out the passion for music that we all posses.I believe in a fun approach to focusing on the fundamentals of guitar playing, in order to help my students build a strong foundation. This ensures that my students have the tools they need to reach their goals.
Musical Education
I attended the University of Western Ontario (class of 2021), where I studied classical guitar under Robert Kubica and Wilma Van Berkel. Before university, I was self taught since I was 8 years old. I have 2 decades of experience playing a wide variety of genres on guitar, including classical, jazz, rock, blue grass, blues, country, metal and more.

Our Promise to You
Getting Started Together
We don't offer free trials, but we do something better - a relaxed 2-lesson getting-to-know-you period. You can pause anytime with just 24 hours notice. After your third lesson, we ask for a friendly 2-lesson heads up if you need to stop.
Life Happens - We Get It
Give us 24 hours notice for any cancellation or reschedule and you'll receive full credit. Planning a family vacation or summer break? Perfect - just let us know a day ahead and we'll pause your lessons.
When You're Under the Weather
If illness strikes with short notice (less than 24 hours), you'll still be charged since your teacher has reserved that time. However, most teachers are happy to offer makeup lessons when possible - they have the final say, especially if last-minute cancellations become a pattern.
Stopping Lessons
Need to take a break? We just ask for a 2-lesson notice:
Weekly lessons = 2 weeks notice
Every other week = 3 weeks notice
Twice weekly = 1 week notice
Summer breaks are different - no notice period needed when you return in the fall!
