Michael C.
Private tutor in Long Beach, CA
Education
Over 30 years of musical experience. I started studying bass guitar at 15 years of age. Studied theory under Mark Banning. 20 years of guitar experience. Musical influences include but not limited to Rush, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and Billy Sheehan.
Experience
I'm a youth pastor and have taught music for almost 20 years. I have mentored and helped develop entire worship youth bands including drums, piano, vocal arrangements and the dynamics of playing together as a band. I played bass guitar in a band in high school. Also, played with my music instructor after high school. I played the Hollywood circuit in the 90's in two bands. I love to share knowledge of theory and technique with those who want to enjoy the beauty of music.

Hobbies
I enjoy playing guitar, piano, songwriting, ice hockey, and reading books that build me up and inspire. I enjoy teaching music, but especially love helping others learn how to create music based on their personality, interests, and life experiences. There are enough copies of copies. It's my hope that individuals would be just that... Individual. Understanding how music works and the "why" of it will enable those to develop technique as well as becoming free to create, not copy.
