About Ernestine
Sometimes I forget that not everyone enjoys the feeling of raw fingertips after a long practice session. I hold a BM in Songwriting from Berklee College of Music, which heavily informs my technical perspective on the instrument.
During my 5 years of teaching, I have learned that finishing tracks is much more important than obsessing over perfect technique. I treat the guitar as a vehicle for your own songwriting and creative expression.
My background is rooted in helping people turn abstract ideas into tangible music. I simplify complex barriers like barre chords and intricate fingerpicking for all my students.
We explore strumming patterns and rhythm guitar to anchor your playing. I integrate ear training and improvisation to ensure you really understand the fretboard. My goal is to make the instrument a natural extension of your voice. I am ready to get you playing better than you ever thought possible.

I value steady progress and immediate results during our time together. We prioritize your growth by creating custom backing tracks for you to practice soloing at home. This allows you to apply new concepts in a real musical context right away. You will notice the difference when we tackle grade exam prep with 7.0 focus and precision.
Chord transitions and acoustic technique receive the same attention as your lead playing. I keep the feedback loops short so you never waste time guessing where to improve.
My 5 years of experience means I can quickly identify the obstacles in your path. We build your confidence by focusing on the patterns that actually matter. Your soloing will become more fluid and expressive through this targeted method. I look forward to hearing your progress as we refine your sound together.
