I’m so glad I found Duncan as a teacher. I had basic guitar knowledge coming in, have had about 4 sessions with him, and am already leaps and bounds ahead of where I used to be. I’ve learned and started to use finger style, barre chords, picking, and much more. I already feel much more confident in my playing. The value for price is also astounding. 12/10 would recommend Duncan for any beginner or intermediate/proficient player that wants lasting results ASAP.

Just started my lessons with Duncan and they have gone really well so far. I’ve taken lessons before and hated the beginning stages of learning but he’s made it fun. Looking forward to more lessons.

Great first lesson (I’ve had couple years of noodling around fingerstyle/classical guitar experience) He was very punctual, and concise with catching up to what I know/don’t know and creating my lesson plan based on that. I’ve signed up for weekly lessons with him and I’m excited to learn more!
