About
I bought my first guitar at nineteen, gave up after a month, tried again at twenty-five, and gave up again. The third time it stuck, because a friend stopped teaching me theory and asked which song I wanted to play. That’s how I work with beginners now.
We start with three or four chords and a song you love. I’ll help you build a ten-minute daily routine that fits around work, fix the habits that make chord changes slow, and answer the questions that come up at 10pm when you’re practicing alone. Text me a voice memo of you playing and I’ll reply with one thing to work on next.
Best for
- Adults with a guitar gathering dust
- Playing your first full song, by ear or from chord sheets
- Building a short practice habit that sticks
