I loved taking lessons with JP, I had never played guitar before and he was ready to help me at my level and had amazing patience and skill. I hope to pick up lessons again with him asap

JP is the second guitar teacher I've had since starting to play 3 years ago. I picked up the guitar later in life (in my 50's) so it has been especially challenging, you know working on strengthening your fingers and forcing them to move independently - and quickly! This review is based upon the 3 lessons I've had with JP to date, and I have been incredibly happy working with him thus far. He has been great about integrating the music I enjoy and using different songs and exercises to help with learning new chord shapes and transitions and timing. His follow up is also very helpful as he summarizes the lessons and provides "homework" for the week in-between. I find the audio files he sends me to play along with incredibly useful for my learning style. Again we're early in this new teacher/student relationship, but I am very satisfied thus far and quite optimistic and excited to continue my work with JP. He's also just a nice guy with an easy going personality. That's important to me as well.

I’ve been working with JP for about 6 months and my progression as a guitar player has never been faster. JP does an excellent job of creating a lesson plan that is fun, engaging, and gets results. I really like how he can take more complex topics about theory and provide examples and show how they can be used in practice. Most importantly, JP is a great guy to learn from and hang out with and has even come out to several of my own shows. I look forward to continue working with JP!

I just started with JP, and I am extremely impressed. JP creates a lesson plan that he works through with you. He then shared a note with me that shows me the lesson that we went over, any topics we discussed, and the chords we learned. This note gets added onto after each lesson and will be a great way to track my progress and touch-up on anything I previously learned. Additionally, JP is responsive and willing to help in any way he can.
