Michele J. says, "Matt is INCREDIBLE! I am so grateful I found him for online lessons. I was seeking online lessons for my son due to some family circumstances, but also equally hesitant that progress would be hindered with a virtual experience. Matt talked me through all my questions and concerns and invested so much time even before my son’s 1st lesson. Since that first lesson, my son looks forward to his weekly lesson with Matt with so much excitement. Matt is not only talented and a great communicator, but truly connects with people and has really connected with my son. I highly recommend Matt! He is exceptional!"

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."
