Laurie is an amazing teacher and we are so fortunate to have found her! My 7 year old daughter told me she wanted to learn to play the guitar, so I found Laurie, using Thumbtack, and she has been the perfect fit. My daughter asks every day if today is "guitar day"? As a parent, I couldn't ask for anything more than knowing my daughter is fond of her teacher and that keeps her motivated to continue to learn this new skill. Laurie seems to tailor each lesson to meet my daughter's progress and she keeps her challenged, which is awesome! Guitar lessons with Laurie have also boosted my daughter's confidence because she loves that she is learning a new skill. Couldn't be happier with my choice!

People say I teach things differently than other instructors. That's because I've learned so much that will help others learn how to play the guitar more proactively, rather than spoon-fed lessons that teach only the basics.

Learn folk, folk rock, blues, rock and roll, rock, and metal. If you're serious, play guitar in a week. I am experienced.

Here at basic guitar, we keep the lessons pressure free. That means you work at your own pace.

I am a student studying music and theatre at the University level. I have taken private voice, flute, and piano lessons throughout college and taught guitar and piano for the past couple of years.

I can teach guitar to anyone. I'm a life science teaching major and have taken guitar lessons myself for 10 years, and am confident that I can teach fun, informative, beginner guitar lessons while motivating you and teaching you that playing the guitar is just plain fun!
