HOW DOES THIS WORK? In human society there are between Brandon J. Acker and you and most everybody else 6 or fewer degrees of separation. Human society is a small world network.

THE MATRIX is a small world network too. Within it — via worldlines which branch and spread like the world-girdling arboreal canopy of a rainforest risen in Bahia — Brandon J. Acker is in potential reach of almost every human being on earth.

Who's taking you???

My Instruction:

Lessons/Workshops: “Teaching is one of my passions. To share the beautifully intimate, yet powerful, qualities of the guitar with students who are willing to learn and work hard is endlessly rewarding. Each student has their own learning style and my first task is always to discover what that might be to get the best out of each lesson. I strive to be the most effective yet enjoyable teacher I can be and have gone out of my way to take extensive training as a music teacher so that my students may come to love music as I do. Whether your aspirations are to attend a music college, be a professional instrumentalist or just play music as a hobby, I am always thrilled to share what I’ve learned.”
