I was one of Kevin's students when he first started teaching, and he showed me so much. He's great at communicating the basics while also focusing on my favorite styles of music, which are jazz and Progressive rock. Im 40 and I still play all the time.

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI like to start with the basic terms and concepts behind guitar, and jump right into some easy chord shapes or basic riffs.
Lesson 11+We will start n to focus on more advanced concepts and really dive into how they are used in our favorite music. We can tackle things like alternate picking, diminished chords, and start talking about more advanced music theory concepts (modes, inversions, and improvisation).
Lesson 4-10Continue to learn the commonly played chords, including more advanced ones like 7th chords, as well as the Pentatonic and Major scales, which can be used for solos and melodies.
Lesson 2-3Usually we will focus on some of the easiest chords to learn (G, A, D, C, Em) which will open the door to many popular songs. We will also talk about power chords and bar chords.
