About Ethan

Guitar is one of the most personal instruments, and I teach it as a tool for connection—between hands, ears, heart, and imagination. My approach blends solid technique with creative experimentation, always tailored to each student’s interests and goals. Whether you're learning for self-expression, songwriting, performance, or exploration, I provide a structured yet flexible framework. We focus on physical ease and clarity—clean tone, finger independence, rhythm development—but those skills are used to do something, not just check a box. For example, I might teach alternate picking through a student’s favorite lead part or explore phrasing by reinterpreting a familiar melody in a new key or time feel. I regularly integrate creative tasks like “build a composition using only harmonics” or “layer parts using looping tools,” and I encourage students to reflect on what feels authentic to them. One student began lessons unsure of their musical identity and ended up writing and performing a full set of minimalist guitar compositions. That transformation came from making space for experimentation, failure, and play. I also include theory and songwriting tools gradually, in service of musical fluency—not memorization. I care deeply about helping students build not only skill, but voice—so they can express something uniquely their own. I aim to create a space where music becomes a practice of discovery, and where students leave each lesson feeling more connected to themselves and their art.

My guitar teaching combines discipline and creativity to build not just skill, but musical independence. Every lesson is designed to balance clear structure with space for your personal musical interests.

We start with key techniques—fretting, picking, timing, chord fluency—immediately connected to real-world songs and styles that keep you excited to learn, from alternative to funk, singer-songwriter to soul. I believe in teaching the “why” behind what you play, so music theory is introduced practically, helping you understand progressions, rhythm, and form.

Communication is continuous: I check in, adapt on the fly, and guide based on your feedback and learning style. I use a variety of tools—charts, ear training, rhythm games, and backing tracks—to meet you where you’re at. Guitar lessons should be empowering, not intimidating. I also share insights from my own musical journey and those of others to demystify common challenges. As your confidence builds, I help you explore improvisation, arranging, and performance techniques. Whether your goal is casual jamming or serious musicianship, I’ll support you every step of the way.
