Joy C. says, "Brad is amazing! As a person he is easy to talk to and as a teacher he is very patient and incredibly clear. He is very knowledgeable and actively encourages students to explore and go beyond what is written in the sheet music. He always makes sure that lessons are going at a comfortable pace, and that pieces are enjoyable to listen to and learn. He is quick to point out things I need to fix, and he makes theory and techniques easy to understand and remember. I greatly appreciated his lessons and his understanding of my crazy schedule. :)"See more

Rachel A. says, "Wes is a musical genius imo. First off, He has all the skills that you’d expect in any good teacher - patience, professionalism, communication, attentiveness, adaptability, etc. But more importantly, he has an insane level of knowledge and wisdom that I’ve never come across before in any other music teacher (including in professional music schools). The fundamental ideas and techniques that I’ve been learning from him have completely elevated my skill and interest in the guitar, and music in general. I’ve never considered myself particularly musically-inclined, but now I can envision a future where I’m an actual talented, respected bass player (if I practice, of course). To me, he’s a very inspiring teacher and I’m super grateful to have found him."See more

Lisa P. says, "Our 16-year-old took band in school for 5 years. He didn’t really advance or enjoy it and finally quit. Then, he started playing guitar on his own and asked for lessons, I was skeptical about online lessons and our son’s commitment. I could not have been more wrong. Our son has made so much progress in a couple of months. He is greatly enjoying it, practices on his own, and looks forward to his lessons! I asked our son for his thoughts he said “Derrick makes it easy to learn and very personalized.” We highly recommend him!"See more

Reviews for Northeast guitar lessons instructors

Enrico K.

Chris is an amazing teacher. I started taking guitar lessons as a beginner. He is patient and talented at conveying his knowledge. After taking my initial lesson I booked several in advance right away because I feel comfortable with his way of teaching.

I took my first lesson with Steve on Thursday 6/1/17. I'm very happy with him and his approach to teaching the guitar. I've been playing for many years and I know where my short comings are with the basics. Steve is helping me stay focused and rebuild my foundation. Plus he's teaching me how to read music. Which I know will be priceless in the long run with this or any instrument. We are keeping it simple and focus on reading music, music theory and the application of what I already know, but now connecting not just know how to play but the why behind the notes, chords, scales, modes, etc. I feel like a beginner all over again and I'm looking forward to each weeks new lesson. I feel like I've got a capable guide to help me along the way, at and affordable price as well.
