Introduction: I want to see each and every one of my students steadily progress, and reach their full potential. I design personalized lesson plans and believe in teaching not only what the student "wants" to learn, but also what I feel will help them reach their full potential as a musician. Being a part of someones progress and success as a musician. I believe anyone with a desire to play and the willingness to put in the work will be a success. Watching those little successes take place each week is what I enjoy most about teaching music.

Justin lights up the room when he enters and you'll find your lesson goes by in a flash and will be disappointed when it ends! He is remarkably patient and an extremely talented teacher with a gift to explain concepts in a host of ways to accommodate your individual thought process and personality. I'm a late bloomer guitar learner and I've made remarkable progress that would not have been possible without Justin's teaching. He's a guitar virtuoso and can play just about anything too! I cannot speak highly enough of his honed communication skills and friendly easy going demeanor. Whatever day you have your guitar lesson with Justin, it will be the best day of your week!

I've know Justin McGovern a long time and it has been a true privilege to have him as a teacher and friend. His skills in teaching guitar are immense, he can meet you on whatever level you are currently and take you farther than you can imagine. He has made my guitar playing fun and informative. His gifts as a teacher guided me on my way to feeling accomplished!

FAQs

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I grew up in a musical family, my mother is a music teacher and she passed the love of teaching onto me. I believe learning an instrument can add so much value to the quality of your life.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Be patient and find the teacher that fits your style of learning. You should not have to struggle to understand concepts or be forced into learning methods/material that make the learning process no fun. Even so called "boring" material can be made fun and exciting when you have a teacher who explains concepts well and helps you understand the relationship of your practice material to your overall goals. The right teacher will make all the difference!

  • What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

    Being a great musician and a great teacher do not necessarily coincide. Both take hard work, dedication and intelligence. I studied with 5 different guitar teachers before I found the teacher that made me realize everything I was doing before wasn't even close to helping me reach my true potential... All of my teachers were excellent players.. Only one decided to become an excellent teacher.. I'm thankful he did!
