About Ryan

Over the past seven years, I’ve been fortunate to teach guitar to students ranging from complete beginners to intermediate players, mostly in school and college settings. What makes this work so special is the opportunity to witness transformation—not just in skill level, but in the way students view themselves. I teach foundational guitar techniques with clarity and patience, covering posture, hand movement, chord changes, and rhythm development. But I also focus on what many traditional lessons overlook: creativity, musical identity, and emotional expression. I introduce improvisation and songwriting early on, using simple tools to help students experiment with their own ideas. Whether we’re working on a student’s favorite song or developing a custom practice plan, the goal is always progress that feels meaningful. One of my favorite experiences was helping a student arrange and record their own acoustic track from scratch—a moment that showed them what they were truly capable of. I bring positive energy to each session, encourage questions, and offer honest but gentle feedback that helps students move forward with confidence. I believe learning guitar should feel like a journey of discovery—and I’m here to help guide that journey every step of the way.

The guitar is a powerful tool for self-expression, and my teaching philosophy revolves around helping you unlock your full musical potential. I believe that every student has a unique voice, and it's my role as a teacher to help you discover and develop that voice. Our lessons begin with a conversation about your musical interests, goals, and any previous experience you may have.

This information allows me to create a personalized learning plan that aligns with your aspirations. We start with fundamental techniques, ensuring that you have a solid understanding of the basics before moving on to more complex concepts. As we progress, we incorporate songs that you enjoy, allowing you to apply what you've learned in a meaningful way.

I believe that learning should be an enjoyable and rewarding experience, so I strive to make each lesson engaging and fun. I recognize that every student learns differently, so I adapt my teaching methods to suit your individual learning style. Whether you're a visual learner who benefits from diagrams and charts, an auditory learner who grasps concepts through listening, or a kinesthetic learner who learns best through hands-on practice, I tailor my approach to meet your needs.

Feedback is an essential part of the learning process, and I provide constructive feedback that focuses on your strengths while gently guiding you through areas that need improvement. I encourage you to set goals and celebrate your achievements, no matter how small, as each step forward is a testament to your dedication and progress. Performance is an important aspect of musical growth, and I prepare you for the stage by focusing on confidence, expression, and audience connection. Whether your goal is to play for personal enjoyment, compose original music, or perform live, I am here to support you every step of the way, helping you build the skills and confidence you need to succeed.
