About Ben O'Hare

Education: Berklee College of Music 2008-2013 majoring in Professional Music with an Emphasis on music education

Performance Experience: I started preforming with my high school's; symphonic, jazz, and marching bands. While at Berklee I performed with project bands, composed of fellow alumni as unique showcases. After Berklee I started teaching and performing in local bands on the east coast.

Teaching Experience: 8 years in total of private instruction, both in person and online

Teaching Philosophy: As a passionate music teacher, I understand the joy that learning and mastering an instrument can bring. I believe in a practical theory based approach to the guitar that extends through music as a whole. Benefits of this approach to instruction include increased creativity and problem solving skills, better hand eye coordination and memory. In addition, learning and playing music will increase self esteem and relieve stress throughout life.
