Introduction
I am #1 on Yelp with 90 5 star reviews. Check out my profile under Lloyd Moss!! Because I've been teaching for 40 years and have taught all ages and know how to tailor my lesson accordingly. Whether you want to learn folk, blues, classical, rock, reggae, punk or any other style, I focus on what you want to learn, not what I think you might like. The satisfaction of getting a student to learn their favorite song no matter how difficulty it may be for them. In this part of my life, I have an extreme amount of patience because I love what I do.

I've been involved in music and the stage since childhood but in all that time I've never picked up or studied an instrument. And all the while I wished I'd had. This all changed, as things often do, with the arrival of my children, A couple years ago my wife was struggling to get our kids picked up from school and schlepped to their music classes in a school in Santa Monica. My daughter was taking guitar and my son was taking piano. The stress of running across town against the clock was too much. So we took it upon ourselves to find a teacher who could make house calls. Through a connection we found Lloyd. He was available and could teach all sorts of lessons. Guitar, piano, and bass guitar. Lloyd is a teacher and composer and actually he is quite a good businessman. It is his policy to offer two free lessons to an adult in the house in which he is giving the child's lessons. He had me hooked after the first lesson. He immediately had me playing a few chords and then strewn them together and I was playing Jimi Hendrix' Hey Joe! Another thing I like about Lloyd is that he will integrate the student's interests into the lessons so if you have some songs you want to play he will be able to teach them to you. We live in Santa Monica but he also has students in Pacific Palisades, West LA, Beverly Hills and West Hollywood. Lloyd has an easy way about him and has been very trustworthy. I recommend him for children as well as adult lessons.

I initially had lessons from Mr. Moss via group study at a UCLA Extension weekend program.  I had a good ear, but I did not have any real familiarity with playing guitar.  I was truly amazed at Lloyd's ability to teach and explain it in a way that ALL students were able to play a short song at the end of the first class!  It was a tremendous confidence booster, and takes a great skill to be an effective teacher.  Moreover, he was able to use different approaches and styles of music to help me and my fellow students.  After the program I continued with private study in both guitar and bass and consider him to be a truly gifted teacher.

Lloyd has been a wonderful teacher for me. I'm 59, and decided this was the year I would learn to play the guitar, which I've long wanted to do but never tried. The last time I played a musical instrument was the piano in elementary school. I.e. I'm almost the definition of a late-in-the-game beginner. Lloyd is smart, kind, and loves music (and it shows). Most of all, Lloyd is patient but also always on the lookout for any sign of progress; he gets excited when he realizes the person he's teaching is self-motivated. I have a full-time job, of course, but I also have managed to find 5-10 minutes/day, often a couple of times per day like the beginning and end of each day, for small amounts of consistent practice; and Lloyd has noticed what I'm getting (and what I'm not yet getting) and stepped up his expectations and homework for me at the perfect pace. The result is that I can see, hear, and feel progress every week. Learning guitar from Lloyd has been pure fun. I feel like I got very lucky finding him.
