I graduated from Idyllwild Arts Academy and currently teach songwriting, music business, harmony, and acoustic guitar for beginners and intermediate players. With 15 years of experience as a musician

Jackie is an incredibly fun and positive person, and this is reflected in her teaching style. Her love for music and songwriting shines through during every lesson we have. She has not only made me a better guitar player, but has taught me about the business of being a musician: how to play live shows vs studio recordings, how to manage and market a band, touring, etc.
I would highly recommend Jackie to any beginner who's interested in music and wants to immediately start having fun, or to anyone interested in learning about the music scene in LA and how to get a band started.
