Told me he couldn’t come to the house but will teach virtually. Never heard of such a thing. The point of lessons is for the teacher to give hands on one on one expert advice and show proper hand adjustments with the instrument in person not thousands of miles away.

Guitar Lessons Focused on Real Progress (Beginner to Advanced) Looking for guitar lessons that are structured, efficient, and tailored to your goals? I work with students at all levels, from complete beginners to experienced players who feel stuck, and help them build clarity, confidence, and real musical skills. Many students come in after trying to learn on their own and feeling overwhelmed or unsure what to practice. My approach is designed to simplify the process and help you move forward with a clear plan. What I Help Students Work On • Learning songs and fundamentals (beginners) • Improving timing, rhythm, and technique • Soloing and improvisation • Understanding music theory in a practical way • Fretboard clarity and confidence • Breaking through long-term plateaus What Lessons Are Like • Customized plan based on your goals • Step-by-step guidance (no random practice) • Practical application in every session • Clear feedback to support steady improvement Most students find that having a structured approach helps them stay consistent and make more meaningful progress over time. Lesson Options • In-home lessons • Online lessons (Zoom) Online lessons are used by many of my students and offer flexibility and convenience. About Me • Berklee College of Music – Guitar Performance • 20,000+ lessons taught • Guitar Player Magazine Superstar Competition Finalist • LA Music Awards (2x nominee) • Malibu Music Awards (winner) • International Songwriting Competition Finalist • Recognized by the U.S. State Department for cultural outreach through music Endorsed by Bogner Amplification, JAM Pedals, and GHS Strings If you are ready to take the next step with your playing, feel free to reach out and share your goals.

Chris is a master at taking my guitar playing goals and synthesizing them into palatable lessons. Under his tutelage for the past two years, Chris's methodical approach has led me to see a vast improvement in my skills as a guitarist. Such an interesting personable guy that my kids routinely interrupt our lessons to spend time with him, Chris is also unfailingly prompt, patient, and down to Earth. No one in this life should be at once so talented and genuine, yet somehow Chris nails both sides of the coin. I truly look forward to my weekly session with Chris and canât recommend him more highly.
Very professional, knowledgable and patient. Great understanding of music theory and can teach anything you want to learn. Would recommend Chris to anyone.
I've been taking lessons with Chris for about a year now and I have matured my playing significantly as a result. Chris is the full package when it comes to a guitar teacher. I say this because beyond being masterful player, Chris also has the ability to adapt to my learning style, keep me on track with customized lessons and follow up, and make our time together fun while maintaining a friendly and professional relationship. I recommend Chris to anyone who is looking to seriously take the next step in their guitar playing and understanding of music overall.
