Kurt Johnsen Music

I teach guitar, bass, and ukulele. I teach all ages and styles. I've been teaching in Northwest Arkansas since 2009. I teach in peoples homes and some students come for lessons in my home. This leads to long term relationships. Many of my students have been taking lessons with me for years. My method is based on a healthy balance of learning and fun. I teach a lot of kids, so it has to be fun. I have developed a practical and intuitive method that mirrors my formal education (I have a music degree), performing experience, and a lifetime of playing guitar. I have seen the method work. Many of my young students have done well performing at school talent shows. Some of my more advanced students are working toward professional careers and have begun performing at local venues. I simply love teaching. I have many long term students. It's rewarding to see students develop solid skills and knowledge over time.
