Terri C. says, "The consummate professional performer! I booked Jon for my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary party. He responded promptly to my inquiry, listened to my requests, and made some creative suggestions I would never have thought of that elevated the entire experience. On the day of the event, Jon arrived on time & had everything set up & ready to perform as the guests arrived. Jon’s knowledge of all eras & genres of music was mind-boggling (we requested covers from 1973-1974). I provide a list of a few songs that were important to my parents, but in addition, Jon took requests from the guests! He is an amazing vocalist, and his guitar playing was absolutely incredible! His experience as a touring musician w/chart topping artists for many years was definitely on display. He also DJ’d the second half of our party & had everybody up and dancing the entire night! I feel like we hit the lottery with this booking! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Who would have thought that I’d find such an incredible performer on Thumbtack! I’m telling all my friends!"See more

Scott S. says, "Both my son and I have been Alex's students for years. He is not only the best guitar teacher we have had, but he may very well be the best teacher we have ever had. My son started with him after bad experiences with other guitar teachers. My son, who was about 9 years old at the time, was just uninterested in classical music. Our friends had raved about Alex. When we first met, Alex asked my son what music he liked. My son said he liked the Rolling Stones. So Alex taught him the riff to Satisfaction. My son was hooked. Alex slowly sequed from rock to classical. Eight years later my son is still taking classical guitar (and he also plays rock). Alex is such a talented teacher because he is so flexible. He can teach students whatever they want to learn. He is the opposite of rigid and doctrinaire. Students love him because he works with them. He is fun. Moreover, he is patient. Incredibly patient. In my eight years of being around him, I have never seen him lose his cool. Despite his flexibility and patience, he is very rigorous. You will get the full Suzuki experience, but you won't feel like it is rammed down your throat. I was so jealous that my son was getting such great instruction that I signed up for lessons myself. I started with classical and did that for close to three years. I switched to jazz and blues improvisation. I have never enjoyed myself more. I am a teacher myself, a philosopher actually, and am very curious about theory. Alex not only teaches me how to improvise, but also the theory behind it. There is no question that I ask him that he either does not know the answer or researches and comes back with the answer. One last story which will show you how great Alex is as a teacher. I recently cut my index finger badly on my fret hand, so could not practice guitar. I asked Alex if he could teach me drums until my finger healed. He not only gave me a bunch of drum lessons over the next several weeks, but he did this over Zoom. The degree of difficulty was extremely high, but Alex not only met the challenge, he did it with great cheer. I feel like I am not only a much better guitar player because of Alex, but a better teacher as well. My highest recommendation."See more

I'm a musical novice who decided he wanted to finally learn to play guitar after turning 50. Jeff was responsive on Thumbtack, and even helped me select a beginner guitar pack. I enjoy my lessons, and after my initial four lessons, I feel like I'm making progress. I'm looking forward to continuing this musical journey with Jeff's help.

Jeff is phenomenal! In just one lesson I already feel more confident on the guitar! He was very responsive when I sent out the request for a teacher, and he even made sure I got the proper guitar for myself. He let me record the lesson to reference later, too! 10/10 if you’re a beginner like me and looking for a teacher please pick Jeff! You won’t be disappointed!

I contacted Jeff to get guitar lessons for my son. Jeff responded right away. He was very professional and kind. Priced very reasonable, we decided to give him a try. Glad we did! On the first day he had a plan and guide prepared to help my son practice what he learns during each session. Very patient with beginners. Excellent Communication. I highly recommend Jeff and his services.

I usually do not leave many reviews at all, as a matter of fact I can't think of the last review I wrote. What I'd like to share with you potential students is this---sign up with Jeff! He's that good! One of Jeff's attributes that makes him an awesome guitar teacher is his ability to pinpoint what you do well, and not so well. From there he build's a customized plan of progressive learning. I've found out it is analogous to building blocks, building one skill on top of another. When he did this with me, I was improving and learning more about guitar. In other words I was having fun learning guitar and practicing guitar. Another attribute that makes Jeff a special kind of teacher is his patience. As beginners, it is important that our mistakes be pointed out, but done so kindly, not harshly. Jeff is terrific at doing just that! He moves at your individual pace, and really cares that you understand why you are doing something one way, as compared to another. He is a professional in every sense of the word. I hope this was helpful to anyone looking to take guitar lessons. In closing, do yourself a favor, sign up to take lessons with Jeff. You'll be glad you did!

I have been taking guitar lessons at Jeff's for three months and it has been a wonderful experience thanks to Jeff's professionalism and amicable personality. I contacted Jeff as a beginner without an instrument. It was very patient of Jeff that he spent the time to understand my needs over the phone, gathered a list of guitars from different sources that fits my budget, and gave neutral perspective on the choices presented to assist my decision-making. When I finally met Jeff in person for the first time, I was anxious because of the new environment, not knowing Jeff well, and not knowing a thing about music, but he managed to calm my nerves by having engaging small talks about my background and stuff that I feel most familiar. Everything was new and difficult for me in the beginning, but with Jeff's helpful tips and attentive attitude along the way to make sure I learn what I need to play smoothly, I feel a sense of accomplishment when I look back. It was Jeff who taught me how to enjoy playing and not continuously worrying about messing up. I am truly thankful to have found Jeff as my guitar teacher.
