Introduction: Jeff and Sarah have ten years of experience teaching, offering private and group lessons on piano, acoustic guitar, and drum set, as well as art instruction. Students of all ages, including young children and adults, are welcome. Effective teaching curriculum, friendly learning environment, and good customer service are all offered at affordable rates. Jeff has a Bachelor degree in Music Performance from the University of Idaho and now writes music with his wife, Sarah, at their home in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Sarah is currently studying for her Bachelor’s degree in Art Therapy. Please call or message for a quote or with any questions you may have. Jeff Private music lessons can be a great experience, for the student as well as for the teacher. As we begin the learning process with music, my goal is to offer tools that students can use for their long-term skill development. This can and should be a fun, interesting, creative process. One of the benefits to private lessons is that the teaching is tailored to each unique student and their own learning style, previous knowledge, age and interest.

My daughter has been with instructor Jon for a little over 6 months now, and the progress that she has made with him has been phenomenal. We previously had her with another instructor for over a year, and she really wasn't making much headway. Jon's love of music and his background in education really shines through; he's so great at connecting with his students. I really appreciate that he takes a few moments after her lesson to just touch base with me and let me know where she's at and how she's progressing. I would highly recommend Jon as an instructor! The owner Jeff as well has always been very accommodating, and very good at communicating with us. Thumbs up all around. 👍👍

Jeff is an excellent teacher, he is always patient and kind to my child. He fosters a love for music while teaching theory. My son has adhd and previous teachers have become frustrated with him. He shows empathy when my child is struggling and uses problem solving to overcome learning/ attention challenges.

My son is loving his guitar lessons with Jeff. He is very patient and kind. My son has never really found an activity besides video games that he enjoys. Guitar lessons was a swing in the dark for me to suggest. What turned into a four lessons has now been extended by my sons request. He really enjoys the lessons. Jeff really is doing an awesome job in helping him figure it out and believe in himself that he can do it.

Details: 14 - 17 years old • No formal training • No, cannot read music • Acoustic • What the teacher recommends • No, but the student is planning to purchase an instrument • 45 minutes • At the pro’s location
