Chris is a phenomenal teacher and is very patient with me. I highly recommend anybody who is a complete beginner to Guitar to practice with Chris. Heck, even if you’re not a beginner, I would say to practice with this guy because he is an absolute expert and knows so many cool tricks. I also appreciate the fact that he is willing to commute to me and he is very flexible with my schedule

Chris is an amazing teacher. I started taking guitar lessons as a beginner. He is patient and talented at conveying his knowledge. After taking my initial lesson I booked several in advance right away because I feel comfortable with his way of teaching.

Chris should change his last name from Rockaway to RockSTAR. I’ve taken plenty of guitar lessons from others over the years, but no one had the seemingly psychic ability to assess my playing and prescribe a set of customized exercises the way Chris does. It’s like he knows exactly what you need to stop feeling like a poser and actually get good at guitar. Chris pays full attention to you throughout the lessons, and you won’t feel like he’d rather be somewhere else (wouldn’t we all rather be headlining Coachella??!) Book with Chris now before he realizes he’s not charging half as much as he should be. You will not regret it.

Details: 26 - 44 years old • 2 - 4 yrs of formal training • Yes, can read guitar tabs • Acoustic • Rock • Blues • Jazz • Yes, the student has an instrument • 60 minutes • I travel to the guitar teacher
