Since beginning David’s teaching career in 1978 he has taught 25-35 people per week how to play guitar. Some aspire only to play at home for fun and others to pursue a career in the entertainment industry.  David Fisher has also taught advanced guitar and music theory to several professional musicians who already play other instruments fluently including Oscar nominee Scott Rogness, who co-wrote and performed the songs featured in the movie That Thing You Do. The students will learn technique and how to develop it using scales, modes, arpeggios and how to play them.  As the student progresses through more material, they learn more and more content and develop a vocabulary of chords. They learn to read notation by reading melodies and solos in the songs they’re learning.
