- I have experience teaching English and Spanish in public schools and teach music following the same linguistic principles.
- I'm exclusive. I don’t overbook myself so as to give each student my fullest.
- I’ve seen the benefits of music proven over and over and I know that learning the guitar is only scratching the surface, especially during these trying times.
