I give in-home (your home) lessons or in-studio lessons at Nick Rail Music. I specialize in teaching nylon string guitar styles, such as classical, Spanish styles, and improvisation. I also specialize in electric guitar styles and techniques such as speed picking, jazz, funk, reggae and improvisation. I teach all ages, but am especially skilled at teaching younger students. I also lead groups with full band set up (drums, bass, guitars). You will get the opportunity to perform as well.

Students are introduced to their instruments in a fun and understandable way. Technique, music theory, and reading are taught through song form, which creates a strong foundation and love for music. Fun fun fun, while getting the job done.
