Learn to Play Guitar - Private Guitar Lessons
For someone wanting to learn to play guitar there is an endless supply of
books, DVD’s and websites providing self-instruction materials.  The
problem is that information alone is not enough. Applying this information
to a daily practice routine makes the difference. How to select an
appropriate method or approach, how to break down and solve individual
technical difficulties, how to monitor and measure progress, how to stay
motivated when you run into a hump - in short, how to speed up the
learning curve and lower frustration. These are benefits can only be
attained with a qualified private guitar instructor.  

At Berklee College of Music and New England Conservatory I was very
fortunate to have received guitar lessons and music instruction from some
of the best musicians and teachers in the world. Several of these
individuals were extremely generous in sharing the wealth of their
knowledge and experience with aspiring young musicians. For me, giving
guitar lessons is much more than just a livelihood. Giving guitar lessons is
an opportunity to give something back. Sharing my own knowledge and
experience with guitar students, of any age or ability level, who would like
to learn to play the guitar either as a hobby or as a profession, gives me
great joy.

Benefits of Guitar Lessons for Children
Guitar Lessons Help Children in School. Numerous studies have shown
that children who play a musical instrument do better in school -
particularly in math and science. Reading and playing music helps to
develop both critical and creative skills.

Guitar Lessons Raise Self Esteem. Learning to play the guitar takes hard
work, patience and commitment. Children who take guitar lessons learn
diligence in overcoming difficulties. This process helps them develop
confidence in their ability to learn new skills.

Guitar Lessons Help Children Learn How To Reach Goals. Children who
take guitar lessons learn how to set a specific goal and work  toward
reaching that goal. The student must stay focused and  take the
incremental steps necessary for achieving success. This skill can have
lifetime benefits.

Benefits of Guitar Lessons for Adults
The benefits of guitar lessons for adults may not be as profound as the
benefits for children, but they are just as real. Guitar lessons can help
develop creative thinking and confidence in addition to being a pastime
that reduces stress. You are NEVER too old to learn!

My education and experience qualify me to give classical guitar lessons,
jazz guitar lessons and popular style guitar lessons. Anyone from
beginners to very advanced players is welcome. My teaching studio is
located at
Haverhill Music Centre in Haverhill, MA. Private guitar lessons
are one half hour and are scheduled weekly. A free consultation can be
arranged to see if guitar lessons may be right for you or your child.
