Guitar Center Harrisburg 5082 Jonestown Rd. Harrisburg, PA
I began playing saxophone in 4th grade. After studying with Steve Fieldhouse I learned the foundation of how chords are constructed through playing arpeggios on the saxophone. I also learned how to improvise during saxophone lessons. After learning to play guitar and joining a band in 9th grade I knew music was the path for me. I went on to study with Marcia Englar at Millersville University and graduated in 2014 with a degree in Music Business and Technology.

Guitar Center Harrisburg 5082 Jonestown Rd. Harrisburg, PA
I have been with Guitar Center since September of 2015, and in our Harrisburg location since June of 2017. I started playing guitar at 13 years old, and immediately latched on to music and composition, practicing for 2 hours in the evenings after school. At 17, i started busking and performing at events in downtown Lancaster PA alongside my partner. We are now married and continue making music together today. Playing an instrument has led to so many positive things in my life, and i am honored to be a part of helping others find a way to make music a part of their stories like it has been ever-present in mine.

Frequently Asked Questions
Each instructor customizes lessons to ensure you are learning what you like and having fun. Your instructor will start you slowly, introducing new concepts each week, plus give you exercises or easy songs to play to keep you learning at home.
Learning an instrument is an enriching and rewarding experience that creates lifelong benefits, including increased self-esteem and the boosting of memory. Additionally, benefits for school-age individuals can include improved coordination, the expanding of social skills, and higher scores in math, reading and language.
30-minute lessons allow young or beginner students to learn the basics of the instrument and start playing songs. 60-minute lessons are ideal for more advanced students looking to progress faster and focus on the finer points of technique.
This varies by age and the type of goals the student has set out to achieve. However, most new students usually spend 15–30 min. practicing daily, while advanced students can practice for an hour or more each day in between lessons.
Our flexible curriculum allows students of all skill levels to experience growth. We help create a foundational understanding of music theory through the style of music you want to play. Our instructors will work to understand your goals and passions, and make sure you are on the path to learning what you want at your own speed.
Our Lessons staff will work with you to determine your current skill level, stylistic interest and ambitions. We'll then help you choose an instructor who best suits your style and goals. If at any point, you'd like to change instructors, let us know. Our weekly monitoring of progress and wide-ranging curriculum means you can switch to any of our qualified instructors, or another instrument, without missing a beat.
