About
I’ve been teaching guitar for 19 years, working with students of all ages and skill levels, and I can’t imagine doing anything else. I currently teach most of my students online through Zoom, FaceTime, and similar platforms, making it easy to learn from wherever you are. My passion is helping you play the music you love. I’ve taught a wide range of styles and artists, and I always aim to keep lessons fun, engaging, and tailored to your goals. All lesson and song materials are provided digitally so you can easily access everything you need to practice. I offer a free virtual meet-and-greet for anyone interested in lessons, and while I have standard rates, I’m willing to be flexible when needed. Reach out anytime—I’d love to help you grow as a guitarist.

My daughter did online guitar lessons with Matt, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was incredibly patient, kind, and encouraging. He made Adley feel comfortable right away, which really helped her confidence and love for learning music. Matt has such a calm and positive teaching style, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his students. We’re so grateful for the experience and highly recommend him to any parent looking for a wonderful guitar teacher for their child. Don't let that face fool you, she just doesn't like her picture taken!

Matt has been teaching both of my kids for a few years and I have to say that I am very satisfied with their progress. Learning guitar has given them a boost in self esteem and my oldest has even used his skills to participate in his high school talent show. I would definitely recommend Matt if you are looking for a teacher for yourself or your kids.

Matt is a great instructor. He really helps explain the material and doesn’t make me feel bad about messing up cords.

In the three years I’ve been learning guitar with Matt, I’ve grown so much as a musician. His easygoing, fun approach makes the whole process really enjoyable. You learn by playing songs you actually know and love, so lessons never feel boring or forced. He meets you where you’re at, moves at your pace, and creates a space where progress feels natural. He’s easily the most encouraging teacher I’ve had. Highly recommend.
