In his words, he describes his joy “Teaching guitar is more than sharing experience for me. I feel like I'm really refining my skills as a teacher, but more than that, there is no greater joy then seeing my students’ faces light up after playing something that they thought was never possible for them”.
In his downtime, when he is not providing guitar lessons or improving and honing his craft, Henry likes to indulge in his other passions; spending time with his family, hiking and mountain biking.
