Learn the most common chords and be able to play your first song after just 1 lesson!
You will build a solid foundation in guitar playing through carefully selected songs that you get to choose from. Once you get the hang of the fundamentals, you get to tell me which songs you want to learn during our lessons to expand your skills and become more proficient, and I will teach you how to read and play your favorite songs like a master! After learning the more common chords and basics of guitar playing, you will learn about strumming patterns, finger picking, and tabs through the songs of your choice. One benefit of this technological world is that we can find almost anything online if we know where and how to look, which includes most of our favorite songs. All you have to do is give me the names of songs you would like to play, and I will work my magic to help you achieve that goal. Playing the songs you listen to and love makes the lessons a lot more fun and rewarding for everyone. My guitar lessons inspire creativity and help develop new students into world-class players.
All ages are welcome! Lessons are customized and catered to the needs/goals of each student.

About Me
Hello, and welcome! My name is Taryna and I love being able to share my passion for music and teaching by helping kids (ages 5 and up) and adults with various backgrounds achieve their learning goals of playing guitar or the piano!
I have been taking guitar lessons since I was 8 years old and finally reached my lifelong goal of learning how to play piano, as an adult.
When I'm not teaching, you can find me spending time with my baby girl on our farm, surrounded by our dogs, cats, horses, and cows. I believe that my personal experiences as a mom and a farmer taught me the importance of nurturing growth and promoting a safe and nurturing environment. I look forward to sharing my love for music and teaching with my students and helping them reach their full potential.
