Guitar Center Corpus Christi 4127 S. Staples St. Corpus Christi, TX
My name is Brandon Arriola, I spent two years studying classical guitar performance under Mr. Philip Hii at Del Mar College. I currently live in Corpus Christi, Texas. I teach guitar, drums, and piano. Most of my upbringing has centered around the metal and classical genres. Techniques I specialize in are fingerpicking, tapping, and alternate picking. I currently am writing and performing in a local band and have been in several over the past seven years. I have three years of one on one teaching experience. My favorite musicians are Robert Smith, Stephan Carpenter, and Brian Eschbach. The first song I learned how to play on guitar was One by Metallica. I love playing music because it’s a form of self-expression that conveys emotion that other forms of communication cannot. I love teaching because having the ability to introduce students to skill sets and future opportunities is invaluable to me.

My name is Aaron Botello, and I attended the Texas A&M University Kingsville School of Music from 2019-2022 with a background in Music Education (Percussion) and Jazz Studies (Drums). Growing up I had a strong love for music, and I believe that it is a wonderful thing to be able to share that feeling with others. For the past three years, I have been the lead guitarist for my band 'ChillKiller', and are in the process of beginning the recording sessions for our second album. Some of my favorite artists are The Beatles, Black Marble, System of A Down, and They Might Be Giants.

Guitar Center Corpus Christi 4127 S. Staples St. Corpus Christi, TX
Education: University of Maryland Musical Theater Major and Performance Grad 2003 I teach all levels of voice and beginner piano. Its important to ensure that a quality education starts with not just an emphasis on voice or piano but a strong placement with theory. This helps to develop a strong musical foundation to ensure that all students can become marketable musicians. No one student learns the same way, I work to ensure that a developed lesson plan is catered to the individual. No one is without talent, they just haven't been shown how to discover the hidden talents within.
Jose Gonzalez
Distance: mi
Guitar Center Corpus Christi 4127 S. Staples St. Corpus Christi, TX
My name is Jose, since I was a child I have had a strong affinity for music. My adventure began when I recruited my neighborhood friends to start a band. We were a three piece outfit called "Let's build a tree." We were a group of kids with music interests ranging from The Beatles, to Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and Jazz artists like Chick Corea, Chef Baker and Wes Montgomery. Ever since then, I've spent my time cultivating and honing my craft as a guitarist, singer and songwriter. I've studied Music Theory and Sound Engineering at Del Mar College. I have used the tools I learned there to compose, record, mix/master, promote and perform my music for numerous audiences. I specialize in improvising, music theory, song and lyric writing. The genres I'm most well versed in are Jazz, Blues, Indie Rock, Garage Rock and Classic Rock. My goal for all students is to help them find their unique voice on the instrument.

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.
