About Joel

I have been playing guitar for 20+ years and have been living in Nashville for the past 5 years as a professional guitar player. I am all about practicality when it comes to playing. I am well versed in CCM/Church music, country, blues, rock, and fingerstyle.

I love the excitement students have when something clicks in their music journey and enjoy walking alongside them to help further their passion for music.

Notable Artist mentions: I play for artists such as Noah Thompson (Winner of 2022 American Idol), Wyn Starks (Semi-finalist of America's got talent (Season 17), Katy Nichole (who's song "In Jesus Name (God of Possible" was #1 on billboard charts for 20 weeks).

I offer both in person (in my home studio) and online lessons.

About the lesson

My approach varies from student to student. Initially I assess where the student is currently at in their playing, help clarify the goals of the student, and then create an action plan to help accomplish those goals!

I teach both beginner and intermediate/advanced players across multiple genres while focusing on a well rounded approach so that the student also knows "why" they are playing what they are playing.

Beginner:
- Focus on chord and string knowledge.
- Focus on best practices for get down muscle memory on chords.
- Focus on getting the student to play songs as quickly as possible so the process is fun.

Intermediate/advanced:
- Focus on theory knowledge and how it applies to real world music scenarios.
- Focus on triads as the building block for learning music quickly.
- Focus on music concepts and approaches to guitar solos.

Perfect! Joel is such a positive and patient teacher. I am a low level player and Joel patterned our lessons with my goals in mind but he also provided on point instruction for all areas I need to improve in. Joel was also professional, on time, and quick to respond to questions. We had great virtual sessions and Joel always provided great practice resources in between lessons which always kept me playing until the next lesson. I would highly recommend Joel!

Joel demonstrates patience and a real desire to understand where his student is in their quest to become a better guitar player. He did so with me and now develops lessons designed to help me become the guitar player I want to be. I would definitely recommend Joel as a teacher

Joel is an excellent teacher! The lessons are structured and well - thought out in such a way that makes it easy for students to monitor progress. Just in the four months that I've been working with Joel, my guitar skills have strongly improved. In addition, you get the sense that Joel genuinely cares about his students' progress. Highly recommend!

Joel is an amazing guitar instructor. After the first lesson, he will determine your skill level. Once he learns your music goals, he will craft an instructional program to meet those goals which is challenging enough to keep you interested, but within your skill set to not discourage. Joel is by far the best instructor I have ever had.

Joel was a fantastic teacher. I went from never touching a guitar to playing on stage within 8 weeks! Joel was great to teach me at a comfortable pace and was very encouraging whenever I struggled. I am very glad that I took lessons from Joel and would recommend him to anyone looking to learn guitar or to improve their skill set. Thank you Joel for you instruction and knowledge!
