I first started learning and writing songs in junior-high school, which is where my fascination started to grow. Though high school and after college I have performed many different styles and genres, and had the pleasure working with some truly great musicians. It wasn?t until college when I started learning classical guitar technique that I truly grew to love the instrument. Understanding the physiology behind techniques and incorporating music theory lead to a much more satisfying musical experience that I now want to share with others.

I also directed small classical guitar ensembles emphasizing cooperation, musicality, and professionalism in preparation for performances. -Reviews- Name: Paul R Date: 2016-02-25 20:52:26 Title: Paul Body: I have known Paul W. for seven years, first as an undergraduate student with a major in Music Technology with Classical guitar as his principle instrument and later as my Graduate Assistant pursuing a Master’s Degree with a major in performance. His graduate recital testifies to the quality of his performance abilities-which are exceptional. His responsibilities as my assistant were to teach and prepare the first year freshmen for their eventual and necessary progress to sophomore standing. This included his students performing during our twice-monthly recital hour and preparing for final exams at the end of each term. There is no question in my mind that he has a gift of communication and teaching that no other assistant I have had possessed and his students were the most thoroughly prepared. Other responsibilities included conducting two or sometimes three of the classical guitar ensembles and preparing them for performances on our twice-yearly Guitar Ensemble Concert and once again his abilities were without question. His groups always performed very well and it was obvious that each group was well prepared. Paul was always reliable and never late or missed lessons. During his studies with me he was always eager to learn and worked very hard at the tasks at hand. He is also a great person. I recommend him without question.

Years of Experience: 20 Location Options: In Studio, In Home Travel Radius: 20 Genres: Rock, Blues, Jazz, Country, Acoustic Age Groups: Children, Young Adult, Adult Instruments Taught: Guitar Lessons,Bass Guitar Lessons,Keyboard and Piano Lessons,Song Writing Lessons Overview: I have been a musician for more than 15 years and have spent much of that time travelling and performing professionally, as well as composing my own music. However, teaching has played a major role in my life for even longer, as I have learned a great deal from being both a teacher and a student. As an instructor, I have, in addition to private music lessons, taught a wide variety of subjects to an even wider age range, including preschool basics, multiple levels of martial arts and summer day camp activities. My teaching philosophy is based on the notion that learning to play an instrument can be just as intuitive as learning to speak or walk. In this vein, I try to identify and adapt to each student's respective learning style which, I find, makes the process more comfortable, meaningful and rewarding. My main goal is for you to love playing as much as I do and, of course, to learn a few things in the process. So, whether your instrument of choice is guitar, bass or piano, I've got you covered.

After watching the Jack Black film "School of Rock" he was instantly inspired. All he could think about, at such a young age, was being a rock star on the guitar. Ironically enough, one day Jordan was rummaging through some old toys and clothes in the basement when he came across an old electric guitar he didn't even knew existed. It was his father's who purchased it back in 80's in the navy. Instantly, he became obsessed with the instrument. He started to teach himself basic chords and notes, and then songs. Once his Dad noticed he had a knack for it, he enrolled Jordan in professional guitar lessons. He took them for about 9 years, right up until high school graduation. At that point, he started to play in numerous bands. Years later, he now resides in Austin, performing and recording for two bands.

I’ve been singing and playing keyboards and harmonica in rock roll and blues bands since age 17. I spent a few years touring on the road where I worked with some amazing and talented people before I went to college where I studied art and music. I moved back to Dallas after graduation and have played in various rock and blues bands for many years. During the last decade, I have given lessons to people who wanted to advance their skills at keyboard and harmonica and singing without lots of drills and exercises. I don’t teach with sheet music. I try to give people the tools to learn songs by understanding their instrument and training their ear to understand what they’re hearing and how it translates to their instrument. I like to take on students who want to learn this technique. It’s a fun and hands on way to get right into the music if you’re a beginner, an aspiring performer or just want to improve on your instrument or improve your singing. I use only electronic keyboards and do not own a standard piano or organ. Over the years I’ve found it important to be as mobile as possible.
