About Joseph

Acoustic Walls provides individualized guitar lessons in a one-on-one or group setting, in-person, live online or video to students locally, nationally and globally.

Being a part of the “genesis” of guitar for many students, as well as the struggles and the epiphanies. Forging friendships along the way is an additional blessing. That is why the last 7 years have flown by.

Students not only learn, improve an deepen their guitar and music skills, they also get an opportunity to showcase their talent at our annual “Acoustic Walls Music Night”, held every year between Christmas and New Year’s Day. This is an opportunity for family members to be a part of their student’s progress and for all students and families to meet each other.

About the lesson

Meet with the student and visit about their interests and what they do (school, work, hobbies, etc). We discuss what styles of music they like and songs they want to learn and may already know how to play. We explore some genres, styles and songs and then begin to make a goal and a plan to get there. This is an organic process and is purposed to be fun (after all, it IS called “Playing” the guitar).

For young beginners, the process is much more concrete, going over the parts of the guitar, string names, proper posture and hand-position. We then work on holding and learning 3 open chords. Our goal for the first lesson is to be able to strum through one song!

5 years old to 65 years old; beginner to intermediate/advanced; fans of Country, Folk, Rock and/or Gospel; from the United States to the Philippines and back.

Look for someone who can work with you to get you to where you want to be and help you discover what you may really want. Then, of course, the instructor needs to not only be skilled but able to teach according to the student’s learning style.

Every year Acoustic Walls hosts a Music Night for its students to feature their accomplishments. It is a highlight for everyone and is accented by Christmas Decorations, warm beverages and treats.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
My suggestion is simply be honest with yourself and be at peace with learning and discovery as you go.
