About me: My name is Andrew, and I'm a guitar teacher with over 15 years of experience teaching 1:1 lessons and I know exactly what pitfalls a guitar student has to look out for. I'm a performer, educator, full-time guitar teacher and have won two regional competitions which led me to the Mississippi delta to perform blues. I love Spanish Guitar, Classical Guitar, Jazz, Rock Blues - all of it! I've played all manner of gigs from small bistros to large city and county stages - from instrumental acoustic to hard rock and everything in between. I was educated in guitar at the College of Saint Rose (Albany, NY) and Berklee College of Music (Boston, NY). I received two regionally-accredited certifications in professional guitar from Berklee.
