Instruction for Beginning Through Advanced Students

I have more than 25 years of teaching experience and have worked with more than 1,000 students in private and group settings, from beginners to advanced players.

My approach is to meet students where they are in their musical and technical development, provide clear guidance, and help them continue progressing while deepening their enjoyment of the guitar.

“Dr. Enloe is a wonderful instructor who has mastered not only performance but also how to teach. He knows how to set a strong foundation for beginners, implementing good habits from the onset. For more advanced students with specific genres or pieces in mind, he also knows how to approach these step by step.”

Technique and Musical Understanding

Lessons can address technical problems, long-standing habits, musical interpretation, repertoire, fretboard knowledge, and the connection between exercises and the music students want to play.

“Dr. Enloe has a great eye for detail and helped me correct several long-standing habits in my technique. I especially appreciate how he explains the musical purpose behind each exercise and étude, making music easy to understand.”

“Dr. Enloe is a knowledgeable teacher who helped me recognize and fix a lot of bad habits in the foundation of my playing. His focus on proper technique and consistent practice gave me a chance to rebuild my foundation and better understand how to approach the instrument the right way.”

Broader Musicianship

Although classical guitar is central to my teaching, lessons may also explore fingerstyle guitar, fretboard harmony, soloing, jazz, and other musical styles when they support the student’s interests and development.

“I came in with the intent to learn classical guitar, and along the way he awakened an interest in jazz guitar in me. A lot of important fundamentals I had brushed over started to connect. I am seeing the fretboard through a new lens.”

Support Between Lessons

Students receive support designed to keep their practice organized and productive.

Personalized Practice Plans

At the conclusion of each lesson, I send a customized practice outline summarizing what we covered and what to work on next.

Support Videos

When helpful, I provide instructional videos tailored to the student’s needs.

Questions Between Lessons

Students may send a photograph or short video if they have a question or are unsure whether they are playing something correctly.

Teaching and Performance Experience

As a faculty member at Georgia State University and Emory University, I helped expand guitar programs, developed curriculum across multiple degree paths, and created the Master of Music in Classical Guitar at Georgia State University.

My students have earned university teaching positions, assistantships, and competition recognition.

I am also an active performer and have appeared in solo and ensemble settings throughout the United States, South America, and Europe. This experience informs my teaching of technique, expression, preparation, and performance.
