About Michael

As a parent and published author, I specialize in reading, writing, general homework, and guitar lessons. I particularly enjoy working with reluctant readers or creative writers and love helping students build confidence. My wide availability allows for flexible meeting times in person. I do not tutor math, but can collaborate with families for a holistic academic plan. Music has been part of my life since childhood. With decades of playing experience and past experience as a guitar assistant in a high school music class, I offer beginner and intermediate guitar lessons for kids, teens, or adults. My lessons focus on making music fun and accessible, building fundamentals, and encouraging creativity. Whether you're picking up the guitar for the first time or looking to improve your skills, I can tailor lessons to your pace and interests.
