Waltham is home to a wide range of people who fit music into busy, working lives. I work with many students here who want guitar lessons that are clear, efficient, and grounded in real progress.
I am a Professor of Guitar at Berklee College of Music, and I have spent decades teaching guitar to students at every level. Alongside my work at Berklee, I offer private guitar lessons for students in Waltham who want to develop solid skills and a better understanding of how music works on the guitar.
