Vincent is teaching guitar to my 14-year-old beginner. He explains concepts well and motivates practice. I would recommend him for guitar lessons.

I am 30 years old, and just started taking guitar lessons a month ago. I wanted to learn the guitar inside and out, and become the best that I possibly can. I am beyond satisfied with Mike's musical talent, passion, and ability to teach. He clearly is not just a guitar teacher, but also touches your heart. I personally was not just looking for a typical guitar teacher, but someone who would really play a big part in my growth as a musician, and he has done that for me.

Christopher was awesome! I did weekly private guitar lessons with him over Google Hangouts, and felt like I really learned a lot. You can tell he really cares about his students and puts a lot of extra effort into making sure you're getting the most out of your lessons.

I had absolutely zero experience playing guitar so I was pretty nervous to start taking lessons. From the beginning, Ryan made me feel very comfortable and has been such a great teacher. He is super patient and always so positive & encouraging!

Vincent has been amazing for our teenager son. He is extremely personable, friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. He doesn’t have a ‘one size fits all’ approach to teaching music. He took the time to understand what our son’s goals were and tailored lessons to achieve his goals. We’re very fortunate to have Vincent as our son’s guitar instructor.

Dave has my highest praise and recommendation as a guitar teacher extraordinaire. He is an inspiration as a guitarist, a teacher, and a person. As a person, he is caring, respectful, trustworthy, and fun-loving. He's a semi-retired behavioral therapist, whose mission in life is to help others achieve success, and this mission is evident in the way he approaches teaching. As a guitarist, he knows, can play, and can teach every aspect of guitar, from beginner to advanced, in any genre of guitar music. He's a former performer and can play a guitar with the best. And his repertoire of guitar music is endless. As a teacher, he is a patient listener, he encourages and motivates us by being positive in his appraisal of our work, and he's a fun-loving guy who knows that we learn best when we are enjoying what we do. He is also an inventive teacher, who knows each student's learning style, and he has a toolbox of unique ways students can learn skills and techniques more easily. His greatest joy is seeing us take those "quantum leaps" to the next level of achievement. Dave is a teacher who opens doors to new aspects of music and encourages us to reach beyond our expectations for ourselves. And we do reach. It is amazing what I have accomplished beyond that horizon. I'm 75 years old. I've been taking lessons from Dave for 13 months, and I've never had so much fun learning something new. From a rank beginner, I can now find music I like, look up the chords, transpose if necessary, and sit down and enjoy playing. I've found a pleasure in playing guitar that I had never imagined. Dave has translated his love of playing into his love of teaching, and I have been one of the happy beneficiaries of his gift. Dave is a treasure.Taking lessons with him is a truly joyful experience. Whatever your talents and aspirations, you will achieve your goals and even beyond. I recommend taking lessons from Dave as one of the best investments in music education you can make, and your results will add a new dimension of enjoyment to your life.

Matt has been a great guitar teacher. He’s been so patient and kind with my daughter. I love seeing her excitement for her lessons every week. She’s learned so much so far while also having a lot of fun. I really appreciate how simple Matt makes scheduling, payments and receiving learning materials. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone wanting to learn.
