I loved taking guitar lessons from Shaun. He is easy to work with, provides good training materials, and caters most of the lessons around the music you’re interested in playing. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone at any age.

Shaun is not only a talented musician but he’s also a great teacher. He’s very professional and was extremely patient with my ten-year old daughter. She enjoyed learning from him and always looked forward to practicing new songs. You can tell he loves what he does. I would highly recommend Shaun for anyone wanting to learn guitar whether you’re a beginner or seasoned player.
