Katie C. says, "Guitar lessons with Cory have been a phenomenal experience so far. I have learned more in a few weeks with Cory than in a year of trying to learn on my own. He is extremely patient and encouraging with me as a beginner. He tailors each lesson to what I am interested in learning, building on what we learned in past weeks so there's always forward movement. I would highly recommend Cory to anyone looking to learn guitar."See more

Arantxa R. says, "Tim is a great teacher!!! He gives me amazing tips in each lesson that really helps my practice. I started from scratch. He recommended me which guitar to buy and by the second class I was already playing a few cords. He gave me a pretty challenging song since the beginning, and this has kept me very motivated. Each class he corrects me here and there and gives me enough material to practice all throughout the week until our next class. He is also a hyper professional guitar player so this is very motivating as well. From holding the guitar correctly to playing the strings correctly, etc. The online classes makes guitar learning super accesible too! Greeeeat teacher! But remember, at the end of the day, it all comes to praticing every day even if its only for five mins. Thank you Tim!!!"See more

Suzanne S. says, "After a discussion about what my 7 year old granddaughter wanted to learn, Take Note chose a teacher for her that was a perfect match! She's charming, asute, musically accomplished and makes the lessons appealing and fun. My granddaughter loves her and is learning quickly and eager to do her weekly guitar homework. We highly recommend Take Note!"See more
