In 1996, at the age of 16, I started Guitar Lesson World as an attempt to learn both the guitar and html. Initially, I learned guitar concepts from magazines, books, friends, and the Internet. I would write lessons in the way that I interpreted the material that I taught myself. The lessons capture these nuances that are forgotten after years of playing.
I took several years off from playing guitar to focus on my collegiate studies at Penn State University. Despite this downtime, Guitar Lesson World has undergone tremendous growth while remaining totally free. In 2006, I overhauled the site for the first time and wrote Guitar Lesson World: The Book, which was released on November 10, 2006.
After my book earned some success, I took classes at Berklee's online music school and earned the Guitar Skills certificate.
Today, I am trying to continually improve my lessons and to help others grow as guitarists.
Please send me feedback on my site and book. Your input made this site and my book what it is today and your input will help me make this site better for guitarists around the world.
