From age 9 to 13 I was coached by the greats John Wilkerson and Edgar Arnold and was on track to begin competing nationally by age 14. I have competed in tennis, football, and baseball at the collegiate, and professional levels for the majority of my life.

"After 20 lessons with Aaron, I can confidently say he’s one of the most effective coaches I’ve worked with. He goes far beyond fundamentals—focusing on high-level strategy, shot selection, patterns of play, and decision-making under pressure. His ability to break down advanced concepts while keeping sessions engaging and competitive is exceptional. I’ve seen significant improvement in my consistency, court IQ, and overall performance in match play. If you’re serious about elevating your game, Aaron is the coach to work with.

My teaching philosophy is that you must have fun. If studying guitar feels like a chore, this won't work. I like to meet students where they are, both overall (what's the music you love!) and how they feel week to week. I've played guitar since I was 14, and I love the instrument not only because it rocks, but also because of its rich history and its standing as an art object. I write guitar-focused journalism for magazines like Premier Guitar & Fretboard Journal.

I have been playing volleyball since I was 10 years old. Representing my primary, middle, and high school city league, with six years of experience playing in a Polish provincial league. With my bachelor's degree in Physical Education and Sport, and a Coaching degree in Poland, I am confident I possess the skills and dedication to contribute significantly to your growth. During my time as a libero, I developed strong technical skills and a comprehensive understanding of almost all positions. I am also experienced in coaching, as far as individuals and teams. Since I am new to the American Volleyball system, I only managed to find an individual who I was trained on the beach court and helped out a group of players during the pick-ups. Starting a new journey as a High School Coach Assistant could be very challenging for me, but I am eager to learn and contribute my experience to the team. Completed a physical education teaching internship in a Polish primary school and participated in a Polish-French international Volleyball Beach exchange tournament in France. I am a patient and hardworking individual who sometimes might be very demanding during the training process and expect focus from the players. I helped lead my city tournament team to the podium four times. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
"Thanks to her guidance, I have seen a huge improvement in my serving and hitting. Very detail oriented.

Taku
A DC area native, I was initially introduced to music, though somewhat reluctantly, through enrollment in the church choir at the age of four; however, I quickly grew to love it. I first experienced the guitar while living in Hong Kong when my third-grade teacher would play for them everyday at the end of school. I began taking lessons while living in Hong Kong and continued when I moved back to Washington DC. I have been playing the guitar for over 25 years and teaching for over 15. While my foundation is deeply rooted in the classical tradition, I enjoy teaching a variety of styles. My passion is to empower others to find their voice through the guitar, no matter their level of experience.
