About
Based on the number of hires and five star reviews I’m grateful to again be the first choice for those seeking top notch guitar instruction in Indianapolis and surrounding communities for 2026. In addition to lessons at my studio in Westfield, Indiana I offer instruction to my clients in their homes. This is a niche service that my competitors for the most part don’t offer. There is no substitute for the personal interaction that occurs when sitting down with an instructor; that alone greatly increases a student’s chances of success. “You can get help from teachers, but you are going to have to learn a lot by yourself, sitting alone in a room.” Dr. Seuss

Mark is someone I connect with easy to understand and very knowledgeable.At 71 years old I also need patience and I get that from Mark. I recommend Mark for a beginner and a more experienced player.

Mark has been teaching our 15 year old son to play guitar since mid-November. He’s kind, patient and balances the fundamentals with time spent on music that
our son is interested in learning. We already see improvement in his skills.

I have been taking lessons with Mark for 2 months now and am very pleased with the instruction . He is comfortable to work with and has been flexible when I needed to change an appointment. Personally, I am in my later 60's (as well as retired) and have decided that I finally want to learn to play electric guitar. While being apprehensive about taking this on Mark's instruction has provided the confidence to learn. I appreciate how he is teaching me the basics in order to build a foundation. I really like how we personally writes out the practice charts and other exercises for me to work on between lessons. I went to a every 2 weeks for an hour schedule and found this fits well. I leave each session excited and motivated to practice new skills and improve my playing.
