Henry F. says, "I’ve been taking weekly one-hour sessions with James since the beginning of the year, and the progress I’ve made is truly remarkable. Coming in with absolutely no prior training, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but James has made learning guitar an incredibly rewarding experience. James structures each lesson to build on the previous one, always tailoring assignments to my skill level and goals. During our weekend sessions, he reviews my progress, gives clear and constructive feedback, and offers tips that instantly improve my technique. His teaching style is encouraging, patient, and highly effective. It’s crazy to look back and see how much I’ve learned in just a month. James not only teaches you the fundamentals but also inspires confidence and a genuine love for playing. If you’re looking for a skilled, approachable, and dedicated guitar teacher, I can’t recommend James enough! :)"See more

Dale G. says, "I began taking Guitar lessons with Jeff Brent in April 2022. I am 76 and figured there was no way for me to learn the Guitar. Most of my experience was trying self taught. Didn't work, only picked up bad habits. Heard about Thumbtack, figured I would give it a shot. There were several instructors to choose from. I choose Jeff because of his introduction "Learn Music From a Pro". That he is "A Pro". Jeff makes lessons interesting and easy to follow. He is patient, always on time. There were several times I was unable to attend a session and he made sure I could make up my time. I found Jeff to be very patient, Professional with his student's. He has the knowledge, ability and desire to pass on to his students. I'm truly grate full I choose Jeff Brent. He, without a doubt is a "Pro" and enjoys what he does. If I were to choose a instructor again, I would certainly pick him. Thank you."See more

Chris M.
Dan's been a fantastic guitar teacher over the last several months. I've been seeing solid improvement week over week due to his lessons. He does a great job of breaking down the complexities of music theory and keeping things light and fun.

Dan is a super talented guitar player/singer but most importantly, he is a great teacher! Within 3 lesson he taught me how to play a contemporary pop song. He’s also teaching me some music theory so I can pick up playing other songs in the future. He is patient and will point out specific things you can do to improve your technique. I’m very happy with my decision to work with Dan.
