About Tom
I am a veteran music teacher with over 10 years of experience in three countries and a variety of environments such as private one-on-one lessons, classroom teaching, summer camps and workshops, music therapy, and as a band leader for group lessons.
I have been writing songs and playing in bands for over 20 years. In 2016, I received my BA in music from Webster University in Saint Louis. Prior to that I received a vocal performance certificate at Musician's Institute in Los Angeles. In 2022 I moved to the Netherlands where I studied, performed, and taught music. After earning my MA in musicology from Utrecht University in 2026 I moved back to St. Charles to pursue teaching and performing full time. I love teaching enthusiastic students as much as I love studying, writing, playing, and performing.

Every guitar student has different goals with the instrument and with their overall music development. Whether you are a complete beginner, intermediate, or advanced student, I meet you where you are in your development and give you the precise information you need to grow and have more fun with music.
Music can be thought of as learning a language, and I like to structure lessons this way. After we discuss your goals with the instrument and with your overall musical development, we get to work. This looks different for each student depending on your level.
If you are a beginner, we are looking at basic fundamentals such as chords, scales, technique, and endurance. However, these fundamentals have to be supported with playing actual MUSIC, not just studying the "grammar" (to still use our language analogy). So, LISTENING and IMITATING music we love is crucial for every student at every skill level.
If you are an intermediate or advanced student, then we spend the lesson strengthening your fundamentals, perhaps filling in missing gaps, and working towards more familiarity and fluency on the fretboard. Again, listening and imitating your influences are so important when developing your own voice on the instrument. So, for every lesson we will always supplement our chords, scales, and fundamentals by playing actual music that you love or music that I have written for you as an exercise.
I keep lessons fun and engaging. I am huge music nerd and love every style. The first lesson is free! I'm looking forward to meeting you!
