Jonny loves sharing music. As a teacher, he finds nothing more rewarding than seeing kids and adults discover their instruments and improve their playing. Most importantly, Jonny believes music should be fun. He uses games to teach fundamental techniques so students can learn and play their favorite songs. Some of his former students are now performing musicians and have been semifinalists at the EMO Sound Off, a battle of the bands for teenagers. Jonny is also a songwriter and made it to be the finals in the American Songwriter Awards.
