Anna S. says, "Anthony is the reason I am finally learning guitar AND ENJOYING its addition of balance and relaxation to my life. I tried for several years with YouTube videos and one other teacher in NY, but the motivation waned. I've been excited to come to weekly lessons for 6 months with Anthony. He has an unusual combination of extreme skill and extreme humility and warmth. My parents are both professional classical musicians so even though I am a beginner in guitar I appreciate his skill. Also, they have commented that I am making great, steady progress and that the accompanying theory I am learning is very sound. Anthony is flexible, allowing me to learn the songs I want to play for my newborn and my husband, and adjusting them for my level, while working theory in between, always making it fun and laid back. I've lived in NYC 11 years and he is one of the nicest people I've ever met. This guitar teacher is a find -- a true diamond in the rough of manhattan!"See more

I believe everyone can be creative. I’ve spent 6+ years bringing that belief into classrooms, private studios, and family homes — as a teaching artist, preschool educator, and voice/piano instructor. • 10+ years professional performing experience • Made it my mission to teach music literacy to immigrant students, who often missed out on it entirely • Most recently taught at a Reggio Emilia/Montessori-inspired preschool, guiding emotional regulation and child-led, play-based learning • Certified in vocal pedagogy and physiology; teach private voice lessons tailored to each student • Nanny/caregiving experience that sharpened my patience and attentiveness to each child’s needs I bring warmth, creativity, and genuine care to every lesson — helping kids and adults build confidence through self-expression.See more

Reviews for New York electric guitar instructors on Thumbtack

From Thumbtack Customer

Sam with StookU
Sam with StookU
I’ve had an amazing experience learning with StookU. From the very beginning, the lessons have been engaging, professional, and incredibly easy to follow. I’ve been learning electric guitar, music theory, how to read sheet music, and so much more — and I’ve genuinely seen major improvement in my skills and confidence. A huge shoutout to my instructor, Jacob, who has been absolutely outstanding throughout the process. He’s patient, knowledgeable, encouraging, and knows exactly how to break things down in a way that makes learning both fun and effective. His passion for music and teaching really shows in every lesson. What I appreciate most about StookU is that they don’t just teach you songs — they help you truly understand music. Whether you’re a beginner or someone looking to sharpen your skills, I highly recommend them to anyone serious about learning guitar and becoming a better musician.
