Greg is very knowledgeable about the Guitar and very personable on our first lesson. I'm moving forward with additional lessons and excited to learn how to play guitar!

I'm brand new to the guitar and would not be progressing as quickly and skillfully as I am without Mike's instruction. Mike has been thorough in his lessons, meaningful and helpful in his feedback (love the notes provided after each lesson), and an all-around pleasure to spend time with. Highly recommended!

Micheal is an absolutely fantastic teacher who comes with my highest recommendation! Before working with Micheal, I considered myself a mid-level beginner, somewhat functional guitar player with a strong background in music theory and other instruments (I'm a college music major). After about 6 (very enjoyable) months with Micheal, I have gained valuable technical skills, fun, interesting, and varied repertoire to practice, and a newfound love for the guitar. He has tailored our lessons to fit my goals, interests, and background, and every lesson features much learning and laughing! If you're looking for a guitar teacher with an endless stream of knowledge who will help you reach your individual goals (while having tons of fun along the way), look no further!

My daughter has been taking weekly lessons online with Matt for a year now. Her progress has been great and most importantly she is loving playing guitar and practices of her own accord (no nagging required). He is the best.

First guitar lesson ever. 1) the studio is a great space - very comfortable, and inviting. Gregg was very personable, and easy to talk to - but most of all patient with my bumbling fingers, and provided a lot of great information for a beginner. I look forward to our follow-ups.

Jim is a wonderful guitar teacher who identified areas of my interests and ways of improvement and developed a plan for me to reach my goals. During practice, he is fun, lively and patient. When scheduling lessons, he is very responsive, accommodating and is always right on time.

I am a 65-year-old student who had some experience playing guitar decades ago—enough to learn some bad habits and shortcuts that did not serve my progress at the time, so I plateaued as a player and lost interest. Last year, as I approached retirement, I wanted to pick up the guitar again and finally learn to read music and play the instrument with proper technique. I read Dan’s reviews and thought he’d be the perfect fit and I can now report that assumption led me to a very fortunate choice.
Dan is a patient but exacting teacher who takes his role seriously, though always with good humor. Important for me as an older student and, I dare say, particularly important for younger ones, too, Dan has a great capacity for perception of and empathy for the individual limitations and special needs of his students--and he is remarkably intuitive in responding to them effectively. I have progressed, slowly but surely, under his instruction—indeed, I have traveled a much greater distance than I expected in less than a year. I approach my lessons with positive anticipation and practice for them with pleasure. I still have a long way to go but I’m glad I am taking the journey with Dan’s guidance.
In conclusion, I would say Dan has helped me fall in love with playing guitar again! From my perspective, I can think of no higher praise than that for a teacher, whatever the subject. I urge anyone of any age who wants to begin his or her guitar journey to consider enlisting him as a guide.
