Emily M. says, "I highly recommend Chris Bean for guitar lessons! When I first started, I had no experience with an instrument, and I’ll admit, I was nervous. But as soon as the first lesson started, Chris made me feel super comfortable and confident. It is clear that he is very knowledgeable about guitar, and he did a great job breaking down material in a way that makes it feel achievable - even to a novice like me! I’ve found myself gaining more confidence with each lesson, and feeling excited about my progress! Not only am I learning a lot, but Chris makes it fun. He is super personable, easygoing, and patient. Each lesson is a blast, and I genuinely look forward to them each week. If you’re looking for a guitar teacher who is supportive, engaging, and just a great person, Chris is absolutely the one!"See more

Gianfranco N. says, "Dan's a fantastic teacher because he makes you want to be a better musician. He uses different ways of instructing that specifically cater to your tastes and interests. He's familiar with a wide range of music, genres, and instruments. I came to Dan for beginner guitar lessons, but ended up gaining much more musical knowledge than I could have ever imagined. Dan helped me with the technicalities of the guitar, and helped me refine and add to my skill as a drummer of 11 years. In Jam Class, we played everything from James Brown to Nirvana. Dan is able to foster a great community of musicians within Jam Class, and will not only teach you to play, but to perform and work with other musicians. "See more

Caleb S. says, "I have been playing guitar lightly on and off for 30 years. I have been around guitar enough to somewhat discern talent and skill. When I decided I wanted to start over and learn classical guitar from a professional teacher I went hunting for a great teacher. Before starting lessons with Peter I met with a couple other guitar teachers and gauged them against others I have known. I chose Peter because I found him to be everything I was looking for. Peter is smart. He is both a highly skilled player and a talented teacher. He is dedicated to teaching guitar vs teachers who don’t primarily play guitar or teachers who don’t have any training in guitar pedagogy. Peter is a great communicator in general, which has helped us navigate my complicated schedule and tailor my instruction to my needs and interests. Peter seems to be flexible and realistic with the curriculum he devised for me and the goals we set. Peter has a great personality for teaching. In the journey of developing guitar skill, I think he is a great guide. He knows the art, he knows how to teach it, he knows how to do hard things, how to overcome challenges, and he has a deep trove of experiences to draw from in lessons. My lessons with him have been fun, helpful, and well structured. For the kind of guitar playing I am interested in, my search is over, Peter is a great teacher."See more
