Teach, Learn, Share

My favourite quote in the world is by Theodore Roosevelt:

"It's not the critic who counts. Not the man who sits and points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done things different. The credit goes to the man in the arena, whose face is marred with blood, dust and sweat, who strives valiantly and comes up short again and again. Because at best, he wins, and at worst, he loses. But when he fails, when he loses, he does so daring greatly, so his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you're in need of a beginner's guitar lesson, I'm your guy. I've taught for the past 2 years. Within an hour you'll be able to play 4 chords to play almost any pop song.
