Porshay B. says, "I signed up for guitar lessons. The sign up was amazing. I spoke to a guy who knew my favorite artist from his Cleveland days. Signed me up for an amazing program. I loved the first two lessons so much I just signed up for piano as well. If you want professionalism that also comes with an amazing online community and a chat line for your needs. Book with Stook. I’m I’m a fan!!!"See more

Frank D. says, "Hello! As an adult beginner seeking to learn the guitar, I can tell you several things I've discovered through experience. Things I can state with complete confidence. 1) Learning to play guitar can become overwhelming rather quickly! With all the information available on line, through books and from friends who say they can show you, it's quite easy to waste a lot of time learning stuff that really isn't productive over the long haul. Sure, you'll learn quickly at first because you're starting from zero, but once you learn the fundamentals, now what? This is where the majority of guitarists languish for years rehashing the same old stuff and never really improving. You need competent guidance! 2) Speaking of competent guidance, I've had numerous teachers who were really good guitar players but after a couple of months watching them play, you begin to wonder why YOU aren't getting much better. They're good, you're not and you're not getting much better. You're wasting precious learning time. Playing and teaching are 2 separate issues. Being able to relay information is probably more important than the ability to play when looking for a teacher. Phil can not only play but excels at explaining music concepts so they are readily accessible to students seeking knowledge. He was the first instructor I was exposed to who had a prepared, written game plan. A step by step road map to mastering the instrument that he explains patiently and intelligently. He loves both playing and teaching the guitar and it is abundantly clear when you talk to him about the subject. I have yet to have a session with him where I didn't feel that I was better after our lesson than I was before it, and that is the main reason one seeks out an instructor. So they can get better! 3) Phil treats lessons like a professional. He's never been late or surprised by my visits. He is always prepared and that's one of the things I like best. He makes me feel like I'm his only student and that MY progress is what's most important. I'm not just a time slot to fill or a check to grab and cash. No ego or showing off his skills for large chunks of the lesson. My skills and my improvement is what matters most and my entire lesson, from start to finish, is devoted to that. 4) Music theory is a bit spooky, especially for the beginning student. The problem isn't the complexity of the subject but how it's explained and mapped out. Yes it can be complex but in order to truly understand the instrument, you must understand the underlying concepts of music theory. What I liked most about my initial interview with Phil was his interest in what I was looking to accomplish. I was questioned about my goals. What did I want to accomplish. Learn music theory? Learn to read notation? Learn to just sit on the couch and play the blues or rock or pop music? A combination of some of it or all of it? He had a path for any/all of it tailored to my wants and needs. I'm thrilled with the path I chose and my progress on that path but I'm reminded by Phil that the plan can change as I grow and learn which is as it should be. Flexibility in learning means more options which also means constant learning without stagnation or hitting a wall that equates to more wasted time. If you seek professional, intelligent and skillful instruction as it relates to the guitar, I urge you to seek out Phil and discuss your musical goals with him. He has helped me both understand music as well as the instrument. It's quite a thrill to honestly believe you are improving quickly at playing the guitar. I look forward to continuing to improve with Phil's guidance and honestly feel my goals are well within reach. Both my playing as well as my understanding of music is growing daily and I eagerly anticipate what the future holds for me and my guitar journey with Phil's assistance!"See more

Mark C. says, "I have been working with Jaime for a little over 3 months and I couldn’t be happier. For two years I had been bouncing between teachers and self-teaching with little practical gains and a lot of self-doubt and frustration. As a 50+ aspiring musician/guitarist, I had a lot of desire and aspirations, but very little structure or direction. When I decided to pursue a guitar teach last November, Jaime was 1 of 5 that I interviewed (i.e. “grilled”) in the hope of finding a relatively perfect fit. After 3 weeks of trial lessons, interviews and discussions I settled on Jaime for a number of reasons: 1) flexibility of lessons – we set a standard day and time be he was willing to be flexible with my work and travel schedule; 2) flexibility of payment – he would take per-lesson or per month payment depending on my finances; 3) remote lessons – I travel quite frequently and needed someone who was not only able to do remote lessons, but was also experienced/set-up to perform those lessons; 4) philosophy – Jaime is all about “listening”, and from the first day he said that we would spend a lot of time listening to what/how I player compared to just learning the mechanics of playing; and 5) Jaime is an experienced and educated musician. From the first lesson he was able to diagnose and correct a number of mistakes I was making – how to hold the pick, string muting, alternate picking, poor beat recognition, posture. Although these first lessons were frustrating for me, his ability and willingness to correct these mistakes has paid HUGE dividends. I cannot recall how I was sitting, picking or playing 3 months ago, but I can say for a fact I am more efficient and proficient. As for the lessons, I feel we have been making steady progress. My speed is up, my ear is better, I have more confidence in my playing, and I enjoy practicing again. Not once during this time did Jaime make me feel inferior that my inexperience was a burden. He ACTIVELY listens during all my lessons – something my previous teachers did not. He sees and hears how I am playing and calls me out – good or bad – when needed. I cannot stress how important and instrumental this is in learning a new instrument – you need to catch those bad habits early and often! I feel I have a good head for music theory – but music theory doesn’t play the guitar. Jaime has helped me start to bridge the gap between knowing and doing; in the end we want to play music – not just study it. I couldn’t be happier with my decision to have Jaime as my teacher, and I look forward to what the next year(s) will bring working with him. I would endorse him to be anyone’s teacher without reservation."See more

Gurleen K. says, "Scotty is singlehandedly the best guitar teacher I have ever hired, and this statement comes from someone who has been taking guitar lessons since 2011. What sets Scotty apart is his remarkable ability to listen attentively while simultaneously pushing me to surpass my limited knowledge of the guitar. Instead of relying on rote memorization, he instills in me a deep understanding of the instrument. One of the things I appreciate most about Scotty is his knack for tailoring our lessons to suit my individual needs and aspirations. This personal touch truly sets apart Scotty's teaching style and ensures a unique experience for each student. Furthermore, Scotty is incredibly accommodating when it comes to scheduling. He understands that life can be unpredictable, and if I ever need to cancel a lesson, within the 24-window notice, he is understanding and flexible. Additionally, he goes the extra mile by sending me detailed notes after each session, allowing me to practice effectively and make progress between lessons. Scotty's supportive nature creates an environment where I feel comfortable enough to sing and explore my creative side. Above all, Scotty's genuine passion for the guitar shines through in every interaction. I consider myself incredibly fortunate and honored to be his student. Thank you, Scotty, for your dedication and expertise. I eagerly look forward to our upcoming lesson on Wednesday!"See more
