Hi, my name is Jason and I'm excited to help you learn! As someone who is always curious and learning new things, I think an important aspect of learning is asking questions, including asking "Why?" I think it is particularly important to see the connections between different ideas and different subjects, and to make these connections relevant to the person learning. In high school my favorite subjects were English/Creative Writing, Psychology, and Film Analysis/Production. At the University ... Read more

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
