Brandon’s I. says, "Jimmy’s a great teacher and I’d recommend him to anyone learning guitar or trying to improve their skills. At our first lesson last year I was only studying guitar for about a year and struggling with classes in jazz guitar at my local city college. I’ll be graduating next semester now and Jimmy helped improve my technical skill level and understanding of music theory to where I can handle the classes even given the short amount of time I’ve been playing guitar."See more

Ashley D. says, "Dom is AWESOME! I have been taking piano and vocal lessons from her and have learned so much in only a few months. She is patient, kind, organized, flexible, and has a wonderful way of explaining things. She is also very responsive to my goals and strengths/ weaknesses as an individual student, even as those things evolve over time. I would recommend her to anyone!"See more

Heather J. says, "I have worked with Sean for many years overseeing his teaching studio in the Baltimore and Washington, D.C. Areas. I am the Director of the programs he worked for. Sean is both a beloved teacher with our school and an excellent educator. We observed students working with him for weekly, in-person lessons over many years, and he proved to be a very consistent, kind, and caring mentor throughout his entire time with them. He is also a brilliant musician who brings a tremendous amount of expertise to music and instruction. We highly recommend him, if you are considering music study!"See more

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.

June's Virtual Guitar and Bass Lessons
June's Virtual Guitar and Bass Lessons
June has been giving my 10 year old daughter guitar lessons for six months now. My daughter already knew a bit of guitar from general music classes but had trouble with the usual beginner issues — chord shapes are hard… my fingers hurt… etc. After just a few lessons with June those complaints disappeared and she was playing her favorite songs as well as learning basic theory and songwriting techniques. June has a relaxed, easy-going vibe that’s great for kids or adults. We’re much happier with her than at the larger schools and conservatories with inflexible schedules where they stick you with whatever instructor they have available at the time. Highly recommend.

Steve's Guitar and Bass Lessons
Steve's Guitar and Bass Lessons
I took my first lesson with Steve on Thursday 6/1/17. I'm very happy with him and his approach to teaching the guitar. I've been playing for many years and I know where my short comings are with the basics. Steve is helping me stay focused and rebuild my foundation. Plus he's teaching me how to read music. Which I know will be priceless in the long run with this or any instrument. We are keeping it simple and focus on reading music, music theory and the application of what I already know, but now connecting not just know how to play but the why behind the notes, chords, scales, modes, etc. I feel like a beginner all over again and I'm looking forward to each weeks new lesson. I feel like I've got a capable guide to help me along the way, at and affordable price as well.
