I love sharing my knowledge and skills with students who are willing to put in the work to learn their craft. Making music and playing musical instruments are difficult skills to learn, especially on your own.

Good news is there is hope! You know you don’t know what you don’t know and you aren’t lying to yourself, therefore, you are capable of learning and being coached.

"If you are tired of guitar teachers who half-try through a song a week leaving you constantly learning new material but somehow never making any progress... stop. You are not doing yourself any favors. What you need is a teacher like David who actually gives a care about your playing and has the ability to break down your technique and give you an analysis of what you need to become a better player. With the benefit of David's coaching, I have made changes to my form and finger placement for the better. These are the hard changes in ingrained habits I needed to make to take my playing to the next level. I would also encourage you to take advantage of David's expertise as an engineer if you are his student. He has recorded many bands and is very generous with his home studio for his students. The ability to record without the pressure of "being in the studio" is huge. Even if you do not currently have plans to record, the experience of playing in front of a microphone is very educational and listening to the subsequent recording is a great learning tool. Taking lessons are pointless if both sides are not engaged. David is a rare guitar teacher who is committed to the growth of every student. If you are similarly committed to your own growth, I can't think of a better teacher for you to study the guitar with.

"Vreny is more than a kick-ass guitar teacher-- he's a freakin' saint for putting up with my sorry ass. I've been wanting to get really good at the guitar for a long time. It's one of the few instruments that has always eluded me (I guess because it requires actual practice for mastery), and that I've never been able to get past plunking a few chords out on (because I have no time-- and, ok, I'll admit it-- not much of a desire-- to practice). I found Vreny through some quirk of fate, and even though he's alllll the way out in Hollywood, I decided to write to him and see if he could take another student. Fortunately for me, he could. I worked out a trade with him-- I did training and massage on him, and he gave me guitar lessons. He was patient with me (and trust me, teaching me guitar requires A LOT OF PATIENCE), customized the lessons based on how I learn, and gave me stuff I enjoyed playing. Despite my lack of practicing, I was actually progressing. Shocker!! After a while, I started taking 2 lessons a week because I wanted to progress faster (and because Vreny is just that cool). I have to say, I did pretty well. It almost made me want to practice more. 

Unfortunately, my schedule doesn't allow me to take guitar lessons any more at the moment. But if I ever get the time again, Vreny is my man. If anyone can get me to be the next female Yngvie Malmstein, it's Vreny. He's the bomb-diggity.

I've been playing guitar and bass for over 20 years. Well versed in music theory, I've studied classical, rock, and jazz under leading teachers. I have nearly 20 music releases spanning 14 years and my music has been featured on Bandcamp Daily, The Quietus, and Cassette Gods. When it comes to teaching, I try to meet the student where they are in terms of skill, knowledge and goals as everyone is unique and learns differently. Fun and creativity are also important. A guitar lesson shouldn't feel like a math class. Of course, there are fundamentals to learn but a playful spirit is essential to creating original compositions.

"Photo of Geri C. Geri C. 2 years ago I am pleased to have finally found a proficient music teacher to coach me on improving my ukulele playing skills. Glenn is an accomplished, highly qualified professional with strong musical background and instruction experience. With his guidance, I have made satisfying progress with growing confidence since signing up for weekly half-hour private lessons.
