Have you ever heard someone say, “I wish I would have taken music lessons when I was younger”? I have heard statements like these too many times. Some students don’t even have the opportunity to take instrumental music lessons. This is a tragedy, because music is a very important and enriching part of all our lives. It’s everywhere you go. You will hear music when you go to the movies, your favorite restaurant, a ballgame, or for a ride in an elevator. I want to share my musical talents and experiences with my students through guitar. Learning to play the guitar is fun. Not only that, but it has also been proven to be good for your brain. Students who take guitar lessons perform better in school and on tests. Did I mention the guitar is fun?
