I've been working with Alex for the last 3 months to play Blues electric guitar. It takes work and dedication to learn how to play a guitar. Alex has been a great instructor and he likes to guide you in the right direction to maximize interest in learning how to play guitar. He knows what he is doing and can give you the right direction to achieve good habits and maintain interest. If you want to invest the time to play guitar well, I would suggest you contact Alex.

Alex is a great bass teacher. His enthusiasm and love for music shines through in each of his lessons. He is always prepared each time we meet and knows the right amount of push for me to learn new skills, but enough to not go too far ahead. He is encouraging, honest, patient, and knowledgeable, which is what I’m pretty sure everyone looks for, wants, and needs in a teacher. I have always wanted to learn how to play the bass and Alex is making that dream come true :).
