practical GUITAR lessons, I want to help YOU get great at guitar quickly!
I am genuinely passionate about your success in becoming the best player you choose to be! I like to teach with repetition (wax on wax off) and prefer to present the big picture first so that every obstacle may potentially never be an obstacle for you. I take years of teaching experience and what have been topics of frustration brought to me by students in the past. I try to smooth the road and teach you, so you get the highest yield of success for your money with as few headaches as possible :) I would LOVE to have the opportunity to show you how great you can be in WAY less time than a traditional private teacher would get you...

I definitely endorse the teaching methods and vast musical knowledge of my instructor, Greg Campbell. As an intermediate level musician, he has taken my knowledge base to a new level. I recommend him to anyone at any level of learning the instrument.
Nicholas Hopkins
Greg does a great job customizing your lessons to meet your needs and interests. His enthusiasm for the music is contagious. As a busy professional, I really appreciated his flexibility. Great teacher! Highly recommended!
Greg taught guitar lessons to my daughter. She had no previous experience and was a little intimidated to try. Greg was encouraging and patient and really supported her to build confidence. He was also very receptive to schedule requests, and went out of his way to try and make scheduling work for us.

Experience
OVERVIEW Greg has been a professional musician and teacher both since 1989. During that time, he has cultivated himself to be a teacher of other musicians. He has gained vast knowledge and experience in sculpting others to meet their goals. This experience has made him knowledgeable of instruments, sound equipment, and the workings of a music team as a whole. He has served as a worship team member at four churches. Currently, Greg leads the worship arts dept at his home church and grows his heart and skill for worship leading. Running his own business and developing marriage coaching skills will prove useful in the leadership and guidance of those he assists in improving their skills. STRENGTHS TEACHING Greg's goal is the building up of those around him in ways that they can understand. Being a strong teacher isn't about being right; it is about leading so that others will follow you. Finding the way to teach a person how they need to learn is a skill Greg has developed through years of practice and listening to students. WORSHIP TEAM EXPERIENCE Several years working with worship teams at different levels has allowed Greg to see them from many vantage points. These experiences have had him everywhere, from leading worship to running sound and everything in between. Knowing that these areas are all essential and must all come together to facilitate a congregation to worship is a strength Greg brings with him. KNOWLEDGE During Greg's years as a musician, he has picked up many skills that add quality to his leadership abilities. Not only is Greg skilled in playing the bass, vocals, guitar, and drums, but he is knowledgeable in the theory behind the music. He can teach those around him to read and understand the music they are playing. He has also spent many hours putting together and running sound systems, so his knowledge goes beyond the stage and into the team's overall sound. Having experience of CCLI and how the music industry works, Greg will use "pop sensibilities" to best utilize and choose music that is pertinent and worshipful. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT ROSSITER KIDS COLLEGE 2013 & 2014 It is introducing 20 kids at a time to guitar basics. Greg often runs into many of these children at outreach programs at church.
