Hi, my name is Brandon Kinalele, a working guitarist and teacher with 7+ years of experience. I teach all ages and levels—from kids picking up a guitar for the first time, to adults returning to music, to advanced players looking to refine technique.
Lessons are relaxed but structured, focusing on songs, technique, rhythm, and theory. I make sure students build a solid foundation by covering the basics thoroughly, so they can progress confidently.
I teach a variety of styles, including rock, pop, worship, gypsy jazz, and improvisation, with a special emphasis on jazz.
