About Me
Hello. My name is John and music is one of the biggest passions in my life. If I can help teach anyone else how to express themselves through music, than I would be beyond honored to be a part of that. I am one of the Worship Leaders at Hosanna Baptist Church in Poteet, where I play the keyboard, guitar, and sing. I have not had professional training in any of these areas, but I have been doing them for enough years to know how to explain it to others. I have been playing piano/keys for 19 years, and I have been singing and playing guitar/bass for 12 years. I love writing and creating my own music in any kind of genre I feel like creating; I do not like to limit myself or any of my students. My style of playing varies on the song, but I will say that Classical is not a strong suit for me. Also, for piano I do not teach how to read sheet music. My teaching will be more of scales, chords, music theory, and improvisation. My biggest goal as a potential teacher for you or your child is to make them better than me. A good teacher will not just start someone off and leave them, but give them everything they need to continue learning, and eventually teach others.

John F. has over 19 years of music experience in the San Antonio area.

John F. is proficient in and teaches Guitar Lessons, Bass Guitar Lessons, Keyboard and Piano Lessons, Song Writing Lessons .



Formal Education:

I have a BA in Theological & Biblical Studies, with a Minor in Music. Again, no classical or formal training, but Music Theory is a big part of teaching music, and that is an area I studied in while in college. I don't only want to teach what strings make what chord, but why it works that way. What makes it a Diminished 7th, or a Major2. These are all very important parts of learning guitar, and not just knowing how to play a few songs.

Private Education:

I've had several people teach me different things since I first started. A lot of it, though, was trial and error, self-taught, YouTube, or just having great mentors. I do not encourage this way of learning, because it takes a lot longer to really learn your instrument.

Performing Experience:

I have been in several bands including a punk rock band, a metal band, and I'm currently part of our church's Praise and Worship team. I've led worship since I was about 13 or 14 years old as just a musician, and finally moved up into being one of the leaders.

Experience Teaching:

For the last five years I have had the privilege of teaching Jr. High Students in Poteet as part of an After School Program. I taught guitar, piano, and how to read and play drum music for the School Band.
