Phil is a great instructor, he can help you with a broad range of playing style. He worked with me in finding out what style of music I liked and tailored my sessions so I could get comfortable in playing in that style. Been making alot of progress and can’t wait to see where I’m at in year’s time

2 months ago Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality, Value I've dabbled in playing music at a shallow level for years. I finally caved in with myself, and set up lessons. I've had 2 weeks of instruction and guidance, and can't believe the progress I've made. Phillip knows how to make things "click", and it's amazing to see my hands play music. The level of effort on Phillip's part is above-and-beyond. He identifies areas to focus that open up new pathways for progressing forward. I would definitely recommend him.
