Become A Better Guitar Player Everytime You Pick Up The Guitar!
Our guitar coaching is for you if:
- You pick up your guitar, but it's always the same old riffs and chords—no progress, no excitement.
- You’re trying to teach yourself but end up frustrated, unsure if you’re improving at all.
- You’ve been playing for years, but putting together an entire song feels impossible, and what you play doesn’t sound quite right.
- Life’s hectic, and finding time for meaningful practice seems like a dream.
- You’re overwhelmed by the endless (and often generic) online advice that doesn’t work for you.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.. These are the struggles that hold so many guitar players back, but there’s good news.

Know Exactly What To Practice To Get The Best Results
These days, it’s easy to waste months—or even years—trying to figure out the guitar by piecing together random practice tips from YouTube videos or following well-meaning but incorrect advice from friends. With so much conflicting information out there, it’s no wonder you feel stuck.
If that sounds like you, here’s the truth: it’s not your fault.
Most guitar players struggle because they’re focusing on the wrong things or don’t even realize what’s holding them back. Many of my students used to think they were the problem. They told themselves things like:
- “I don’t have enough time to practice.”
- “I’m too old to learn.”
- “My hands are too small (or too big).”
- “I don’t have rhythm.”
- “I’m not creative.”
- “I’ll never play fast.”
If any of this sounds familiar, stop believing these lies.
The problem isn’t you—it’s the method you’ve been using. What you need is a teacher who:
- Inspires and motivates you.
- Helps you uncover exactly what’s holding you back.
- Shows you step-by-step how to overcome every obstacle in your playing.
- Makes the process fun and rewarding.
Here’s the best part: I’ve yet to meet anyone who couldn’t become a great guitar player with the right guidance.
The truth is, trying to learn guitar without a great teacher is like wandering through a maze in the dark. You’ll spend years spinning your wheels—or give up entirely—without ever reaching your potential.
With a great teacher, everything changes. You’ll quickly uncover the missing pieces in your playing, technique, or practice routine. Whether you’re an absolute beginner or an experienced player stuck in a plateau, I’ll help you make real progress faster than you ever thought possible.
I know how overwhelming it can feel learning to play the guitar on your own because I’ve been there.
When I first picked up the guitar, I tried everything—books, videos, online courses—hoping to find that magical “missing piece” that would finally make it all click. But no matter how hard I searched, I never found the “holy grail” of guitar wisdom. The problem wasn’t the resources themselves—it was that I didn’t know enough about guitar to separate the good advice from the bad. What I really needed was an expert guide.
After years of slow, frustrating progress, I finally found a teacher who changed everything. They helped me identify and fix my bad habits, showed me exactly what to focus on, and taught me how to make the most of what I already knew. Suddenly, playing the guitar became exciting and fun again! I realized that it wasn’t about cramming in more information—it was about having the right guidance on how to use things creatively and effectively.
You can save a lot of time and avoid frustration when you study with an expert guitar instructor.

You won’t be on this journey alone. I’ll be with you every step of the way to ensure you fully understand and apply everything you learn. Together, we’ll make learning guitar rewarding and fun.
Don’t waste years feeling stuck.
Let’s get you playing the way you’ve always dreamed.

Get A Highly Trained, Professional Guitar Instructor
Unfortunately, the sad truth is that most guitar teachers have zero training in how to teach effectively. As a result, their students waste their time, money, and energy learning outdated, inefficient methods that don’t deliver results.
Even if a teacher is an incredible player, that doesn’t mean they know how to help you become one. Teaching guitar requires a completely different skill set—one that many guitar players simply don’t have. Without proper training, even the most well-meaning teachers struggle to create an efficient, personalized plan for their students to make real progress.
The result? Frustration, stagnation, and students giving up on their dreams of playing guitar.
Here’s the truth: No matter how talented a player someone is, if they haven’t been trained to teach, they’ll be ineffective at helping you reach your goals.
When choosing a guitar teacher, the first question you should ask is this:
“How were you trained to teach?”
At Guitar Lessons Geauga, we take teaching seriously. That’s why we’ve pursued specialized training to master the art of helping students succeed.
As a member of EGTIC (Elite Guitar Teacher Inner Circle), an international professional organization for guitar teachers, I’ve learned and applied proven, cutting-edge teaching methodologies designed to help students progress faster and with greater confidence. My top priority is ensuring every student achieves—and surpasses—their goals.
Here’s what sets me apart:
- I’m the only guitar teacher in Geauga County and Northeast Ohio with Elite Guitar Teacher Inner Circle training.
- I study year-round under one of the world’s top guitar educators, constantly refining my skills to stay ahead of the curve.
- Every year, I invest significant time and money to ensure my students benefit from the most effective and up-to-date learning methods available.

Frequently Asked Questions
WHAT SKILL LEVELS DO YOU TEACH?
We instruct students of all skill levels, from complete beginners who have never held a guitar to advanced players with over 50 years of experience.
WOULD IT BE HELPFUL FOR ME TO LEARN SOME BASICS ON MY OWN BEFORE STARTING LESSONS?
Of course not! Many beginners wonder about this, thinking they should know a bit before our first meeting.
If you haven’t learned to play anything yet, that’s actually wonderful news! You haven’t developed any bad habits, learned things out of order, or felt confused by learning from resources that seem to contradict each other.
Together, we will build a solid musical foundation that will let you play real music with ease and truly enjoy your progress!
HOW OLD DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO BEGIN GUITAR LESSONS?
We start teaching guitar to students at age ten.
AM I TOO OLD TO LEARN GUITAR?
Absolutely not! You might be pleasantly surprised to discover that a significant number of our students are adults. We welcome adults of ALL ages. You’re never too old to learn something new.
WHAT KIND OF GUITAR SHOULD I BUY?
Kids should always start out with an electric guitar.
Adults and teens should think about the type of music they wish to play, as this can really help in selecting the ideal guitar for them!
I still suggest starting off with an electric guitar because its smaller body makes it super easy to see and reach the fretboard, and the thinner strings make them much easier to press down.
You can begin by buying the guitar now and purchase the amp and other supplies later.
That being said, you should buy the type of guitar that fits you best. If you’re eager to learn acoustic guitar, then buying an acoustic is the way to go.
Feel free to contact us, and we can help you choose the guitar that best suits you!
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE ME TO GET “GOOD”?
It really depends on the individual, their interest, goals, and how quickly they want to make progress. You can progress in as little as 10-20 minutes of practice 4-5 days a week if you have the proper training from an experienced guitar teacher on a consistent basis.
It’s important to remember that your understanding of an instrument goes beyond just the number of songs you learn to play. We not only help you cultivate your talents but also assist you in developing real-world skills.
HOW LONG SHOULD I TAKE LESSONS FOR?
As long as you still have the desire to learn and improve, we have students who have been with us for over ten years and still continue to master their instruments and improve their skills.
