About William
I really enjoy seeing the student as excited about learning as I am about teaching. I often contribute interesting stories or antecdotes that relate to, and help answer questions.
My first experience teaching was with a Guitar Clinic where I was teaching "How To Play By Ear", "How To Improvise In Any Key" and "Jamming To The Blues Scale". Then a parent of a student explained that her son was also interested in learning beginning Classical Guitar. I replied "Sure, if he wants to learn WITH me." I then took him (and I) through Book One, then Book Two. When he got to the 8th Grade he was tutoring other first year guitar students.
I have been teaching Beginning Classical Guitar ever since. I enjoy teaching the basics and proper technique. If the student wants to continue, I then recommend an intermediate or advanced teacher that is available in the area at that time.
Getting people excited about making music and enjoying it in whatever capacity they choose to use it.

I was trained in brass (Trumpet and Cornet) in High School then Piano in College. My interest in Guitar started me on a journey of first playing popular genres by ear, and then translating my music reading knowledge (from Brass and Piano) to Classical Guitar.

First, become a friend of the student. Talk about likes, dislikes, in-betweens...especially regarding music. Then I go over the history of Classical Guitar and some of the notable players.
I've taught both people with prior knowledge or training (in vocals or another instrument) and people with no previous music training or knowledge.

Has a great way of keeping it interesting, challenging and fun. My son is now enrolled with Bill and loves learning on his guitar.
Bill is very patient and will go over things as many times as it takes for me to understand and reach the desired goal. I can tell he enjoys teaching and that helps to keep me engaged and excited about my progress.
Bill, my teacher has amazing patience to help us achieve our goals. "Getting it right is better than getting it now." is one of his helpful phrases. He really mentored and encouraged me through Book 1, then Book 2 came much easier, the scales and key signatures then made sense to me. I am now in the Guitar Ensemble at my college and plan to make Music my career. --Katie S.
