A walking theory library and a wealth of guitar knowledge. Jimmy was an important part of my development as not just a guitarist, but as a musician. -Frankie Stephens www.FrankieStephensProject.com

Jimmy was one of my friends who play guitar, When I started learning Jimmy was an outstanding friend who always encouraged me. Once he saw I was kinda serious he used to give me scales and exercises to get better. I have nothing but great things to say about Jimmy. He has a great style of teaching and encourages you to be better than you thought you could be. He is smart punctual and very flexible. He can teach you to play anything he is truly the most versatile musician I know. Jazz, rock, acoustic, classical , he can do it all and teach you effortlessly.

Jim is great. He's literally taught all the good teachers on the south side of Atlanta. I took lessons from Jim continuously as supplemental education while earning my degree in guitar performance. AAA+++

As a senior pastor who also plays guitar, it was a joy to have Mr. Jimmy with us in our worship band for many years. Jim's attitude of working with all levels of musicianship and attitudes was excellent. He makes everyone feel at ease no matter what their level of experience or talent. Jimmy was always open to whatever adjustments had to be made too.

I have known Jimmy for 30 years, and he is a man of integrity, and the best guitar teacher and guitar player, that I have ever met.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My lesson prices are on the average about $20 less per month than what most local music stores charge since I don't have to pay for teaching studio rental in a retail establishment. I teach out of my own home studio and pass the savings back to my customers.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Everything I teach is fun and practical and I equip my students to experience personal successes early in their journey learning how to play guitar.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've studied under 10-11 guitar teachers and much self-study as well as experience as a performer. All of that learning and performing experience has yielded a lot of fruit in my many years of teaching hundreds of students.
