Guitar, Ukulele, or my favorite Guitalele!
Music serves as a cornerstone of society, capable of stirring emotions and providing comfort. Just as David's melodies eased King Saul's troubled spirit in biblical times, music continues to hold transformative power.
Our Guitar lessons are thoughtfully designed to guide you from the basics to proficiency, empowering you to play confidently in front of others and enrich worship services and beyond. Tailored to suit your individual strengths and goals, our curriculum offers comprehensive instruction in both Beginner Fingerstyle Guitar and Strumming Techniques.
With our beginner-friendly Guitar Worship Song Book, meticulously compiled by us, you'll find over 30 beautiful, common hymns, scripture songs, and other Christian music to enjoy and share with loved ones.
Success in this course hinges on consistent practice, laying the foundation for musical proficiency and spiritual fulfillment.
Additionally, as part of our commitment to your growth, we help you arrange opportunities to become accustomed to playing in front of people, such as bible study groups or small church gatherings, to boost your confidence and comfort.
Each session, lasting 1.5 hours, promises a mix of learning and practice, all in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. Our one-on-one format ensures that every moment is tailored to your progress and preferences. Get ready to strum away and have a blessed time learning!

👋🏼 Hello and welcome! I'm thrilled to have you join our beginner guitar lessons. Working together is going to be an exciting journey, and I'm here to make sure it's not only educational but also a whole lot of fun!
As your teacher, I'm passionate about music, and I can't wait to share that passion with you. My personal favorite style is fingerpicking because I believe it beautifully emphasizes the essence of a song. However, I also appreciate the artistry in strumming; there's something remarkable about the rhythm and stops that help to paint the story of a song for the listener.
One thing I want to highlight is the flexibility in our lessons. I understand that everyone learns differently, so I'm committed to adapting our approach to suit your needs and preferences, especially as beginners. Whether you've never picked up a guitar before or have some basic knowledge, we'll start from where you are and build up your skills together.
Throughout our lessons, we'll focus not only on mastering the guitar, but also on how to use your newfound skills to play for others, enhance personal devotions, and even craft your own Christian pieces. Get ready to embark on this musical journey with me, where we'll not only learn to play, but also to share the gift of music with others and deepen our connection with God through worship and creative expression.
