Jay
Knowledgeable Guitar & Music Theory Tutor
Hiya! I have been playing guitar for over 10 years and have been teaching for over 5. I take my guitar lessons very seriously because I love what I teach. With that being said, I joke ALL the time. In fact, humor is so paramount to me that people have told me my improvisation "sounds like [I'm] telling jokes." I am a bit of a Music Theory nerd. Understanding the theory is an amazing tool to have as a player. It is the difference between a hobbyist and a professional. But even a hobby... Read more
