Mark Cox
Available on for lessons on Monday
Mark Cox has been playing guitar since he was 14 years old.
Initially, he taught himself how to play by just
learning a few chords and then playing songs (mostly by U2) right
away. Now after 25 years of experience, he still loves playing the
guitar and is enthusiastic about passing this skill on to others.
Mark believes in using a song-based approach to learning the guitar.
Basically he teaches a few chords and a little theory, and then jumps
into playing real songs right away. He finds this approach keeps the
guitar fun and addresses aspects of technique as they arise and apply
to specific songs by popular artists. Mark tailors his lessons and song
selections to the taste of each individual student, so whether you
want to play rock, folk, country, or metal, he'll make sure you learn
the style of guitar you enjoy.
Mark is a very patient and encouraging teacher who works well with all
ages, and has particular experience with youth.
