I'm an experienced teacher/performer/songwriter looking for one or two very dedicated students at any level, electric or acoustic, any style, male or female. If you can demonstrate that you are serious about learning but really can't afford quality lessons, I'll teach you for free. Yes, really.

You need to be prepared to practice every day and attend weekly 1-hour lessons without excuses. Obviously you need to own or have access to a guitar. You will need to provide some references or demonstrate somehow that you really can't afford to pay, but mostly just convince me it's true.

I may also take a paying student, but only if you are truly exceptional in your interest, energy and dedication to playing.

Why am I offering this? I like teaching, I don't need the money and I'd like to give something back. I also think it'd be very cool to help out someone who otherwise couldn't afford it. If you know someone who might qualify, please pass this offer along. Thanks!
