Nearly two decades of private teaching experience
From 2002 through 2020, I owned and operated a private in-home guitar lesson business, helping elementary and middle school students build a strong musical foundation.
Today, I bring that experience to adults who are picking up a guitar for the first time and players who are ready to return after years away.
My job is not to impress you with what I know. It is to listen, make the next step clear, and help you build enough confidence to enjoy making music on your own.
A favorite song, smoother chords, a first solo, or simply feeling comfortable with the instrument again.
Each lesson focuses on the next useful skill. Theory appears when it helps you play, not as homework for its own sake.
Leave with a clear, manageable practice plan designed for busy adults and the time you actually have.
Kenny Demery was my son’s guitar teacher from the age of 10 until he went on to study music at University of Miami’s Frost School of Music.
Kenny helped him build a strong foundation in the basics, but his teaching went far beyond developing guitar skills. He also helped my son deepen his understanding of music theory, composition and the music business.
Kenny was an invaluable resource, mentor and inspiration throughout my son’s musical journey. Thanks in large part to Kenny’s guidance and encouragement, today my son is happily working as a full time musician, producer and teacher.
I wholeheartedly recommend Kenny to any student who is interested in developing their musical abilities or pursuing a musical career.
A lesson example
Beautiful Love is a two-page guitar arrangement by Kenny Demery that combines standard notation and tablature. It is an example of how musical ideas can be organized into clear, playable steps.
