Spencer R. says, "I was seeking guitar lessons to improve my entry-level skills and to be able to write some songs. Just under a year later, I understand various different scales (major, minor, and some modes) and when to use them. I also have a comfortable grasp of the different chords and chord shapes. I was planning to focus on just rock n roll but I've been introduced to a much broader array of music including funk, blues, jazz, reggae, and metal as well as different techniques used within each genre. Lessons have been great and have helped me learn not only what to play, but why I'm playing it too. I cannot say enough good things about Justin who has an answer to any question and an accessible teaching style (which is saying a lot when referring to guitar). Every time I leave my lesson I feel that I've improved and I have the support to inspire me to keep improving."See more

Munjal S. says, "First, I have to thank Thumbtack for connecting me with Max as Max and I have mutually hired each other for services through Thumbtack. Max originally reached out to me for hypnotherapy, and after building a strong working relationship and genuine rapport, he stepped into the role of my guitar teacher. Learning guitar has been a lifelong dream of mine, and Max has been an incredible teacher. He’s been playing guitar for over 20 years, has studied with multiple teachers, and has performed in several bands, so his depth of experience really shows—not just in his skill, but in how he teaches. His teaching style mirrors who he is as a person: patient, understanding, flexible, thoughtful, and deeply encouraging. Within just two months, we’re already writing my first original song, which is much faster than I ever expected. I feel genuinely honored to have Max as my guitar teacher, and I give him my highest recommendation to anyone looking to learn guitar—whether you’re a complete beginner or someone wanting to go deeper."See more
