Hello, my name is Vince. I've been working as an instructor/tutor for more than 25 years. The students I have worked with have ranged from K through grade 12, as well as adult students/adult education. I have tutored in various towns in the area, local private schools, and I have also worked as a private instructor.

I believe that it's important to make each student feel relaxed but also fully engaged in the learning process. I monitor a students progress/understanding of the material presented by continuously asking material-related questions during the lesson. By using this method I've observed this helps the student be more engaged and also aware of their own progress. It's equally important to make each student feel comfortable/at ease when working with me. My many years experience in this field has given me an awareness of student's learning style and general rate of retention of material. This is critical if the student is to receive maximum benefit from the tutorial.

My grandson took his very first guitar lesson. He learned the cords and the names of the six strings. In a short period of time he learned a lot. I would recommend very highly.

Great teacher and also very talented

awesome with my 12 year old! He allows my son time to think, reflect on what he’s learned and apply it to his bass. He’s made great progress ever since starting with Vince. Thanks Vince!

Jamila, 96 lessons with Vince

Patient and friendly instructor.

He allowed my 11 year old to play around a little to see what chords sounded good to him. In the end he ended up making his own song. Great idea! Vince is very good at what he does.
