Mehmet O. says, "I’ve been studying classical guitar with James for some time now, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. I’m 68 and play at an intermediate level, and James has been helping me build a meaningful and challenging repertoire that includes both intermediate and more difficult pieces. What stands out most is how he’s opened my eyes to the interpretive side of classical guitar—how great players bring their own voice to the music. For the first time, I feel empowered to explore my own musical expression, not just play the notes on the page. James is deeply knowledgeable about the guitar and its literature, highly professional, and an all-around kind and supportive teacher. I don’t have much experience playing in front of others, but he creates a comfortable, encouraging environment that really puts me at ease. I highly recommend him to any guitarist looking to grow—not just in skill, but in confidence and artistic identity. Five stars, without a doubt."See more

Christina M. says, "Before you fold and give up, use that "phone a friend" support option. As a senior beginner, I was at first concerned that I couldn't learn piano while learning to set up technically for the best online piano learning experience ever. My instructor Dalton, was super kind and encouraging. The StookU staff helped give me the courage to jump fully into the experience and not be afraid to invest into myself and give myself the best learning options and experience. Lessons are so much more than piano lessons, but a real roundtable for MY success! Thank you so much to my instructor, who Makes the scarey bazillion notes classics an adventurous hunt for a sassy jazz tune hidden within! Im so fortunate to be able to tap into this outrageous tallent for a crazy reasonable price. Thank you to the awesome StookU group for providing this treasure at a price of literally 7 cups of fancy coffee a week! This is one of the greatest gifts I have given myself!"See more

He is extremely knowledgeable as a guitar player and was able to relate to all of the different types of music that I was trying to play. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to further their guitar skills!"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

Nona V. says, "I really enjoy my guitar lessons and always look forward to going. Jay explains things in a way that actually makes sense. He focuses a lot on building strong basics and practicing finger techniques first, which has really helped me improve. I feel like he genuinely cares about teaching and wants his students to understand music properly, not just memorize things. He’s very patient, knowledgeable, and makes learning guitar fun and motivating. Anna"See more

As I am approaching my 40th birthday I deceided to step outside of my box & try new things in life. My children are grown, so that leaves me with more time to take up a hobby. So, I deceided to look up guitar lessons. I've fiddled around with an accoustic a little bit, but I really wanted to learn more. So, when I found Dustin & his willingness to teach this old girl a new trick or two. I received many quotes from different teachers, but I didn't think they would be a good fit for me. I was scared in the begging just the thought of not being able, but quickly he made me feel very comfortable. The best thing about my new teacher is his patience with me & not treating me like a child and teaching me the kind of music I'm interested in. He asked me on day 1 my interest in music that I wanted to learn & each lesson he's covered them. I could not be more pleased with my lessons. I defiantly give Dustin two thumbs up & I would refer him to anyone.
