Chris gave my daughter an introductory guitar lesson, and I really like his overall approach to teaching. He asked my daughter what songs she wanted to learn, and they dove right in. He also provided videos of the lesson so she could continue practicing independently. Overall, the session was a good value and gave her the confidence to keep playing.
