About your guitar coach

Performing is my passion, teaching is my purpose. I believe studying an instrument is a spiritual experience. It is a discipline that takes commitment. Playing music takes us outside of ourselves, and can be incredibly stress relieving. Let me help you learn what you’ve always wanted to know. Jazz, Metal, and Acoustic Fingerstyle!

He makes learning fun! He knows a few more things than music, and if you ask him any question, he will give you an answer. Thats a teacher!
Zachary R
Nathan is a phenomenal guitar player with expertise in music theory, improvisation, technique and especially jazz harmony. His passion for jazz shows itself in his vast knowledge of it. He’s able to explain said concepts in a way that’s easy to understand. If you’re ever having trouble understanding those concepts, he takes it a step back and gives you exercises and knowledge that can help bring you up to that level. He’s also extremely flexible with one’s learning style and is able to adjust the pace at which you learn. For instance if you’re a fast learner, he can give you as many things as you need to practice. If you’re a slower learner, he can accommodate that and give you just a few but essential things to practice. What I like about him is that he keeps things fun and useful by having you do things that actually apply to the instrument, so you have something you can use immediately. I would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone learning how to play jazz and even just improving as a guitar player in general.

"I love the way you explain things in relation to guitar specifically. When you explain something I don’t understand, you back up to the main idea of what we’re talking about, and that really helps me.”

Nathan cares about his students and will work with you to strengthen your weaknesses on the guitar.

“I had no idea music contained this many patterns. It all makes sense now.”
