Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Experienced and dedicated. Lessons for guitar, bass, and drums for all ages. References are available upon request. I've been offering private music lessons in the Scranton, Clarks Summit PA area for close to two decades. Students can choose either in person or remote instruction for local lessons and online/remote lessons for anywhere else. PDF's of lessons are handed out or emailed and even video reviews of material are available upon request. Since each student is unique, every lesson is tailored to each student's needs and goals. I teach a variety of styles and place a healthy focus on technique and playing correctly. A little proper technique goes a long way and allows the budding student to access more complex material down the road. Also, reading music, counting, theory, and ear training are all on the list as well. I began teaching back in the early 2000's providing in home lessons all over NEPA and since 2020 have taken an interest in providing online lessons as well. A bit different approach for the two formats and I can't really recommend one over the other for medium to advanced students but for newcomers it's a good idea to meet in person, especially for youngsters. There's much to be said for developing proper technique at the beginning and while online lessons are an excellent format, a young or beginner student will benefit greatly by in person lessons as well. You may choose either and I proudly provide both and still travel right to my students in NEPA. Flexible scheduling for busy students and reasonable rates. As always, the first lesson is free. No pressure, obligation, or hassle. :)

Guitar Steve has been teaching our son guitar lessons for the last three years. Steve is incredible! Our son was only 7 when started taking guitar lessons for the first time. Steve has been incredible in teaching the fundamentals of playing guitar while building a love of music and making it fun for our son. He has progressed from playing acoustic to electric guitar and moved through so many levels and different types of music during this time. Steve is incredibly patient and kind and has such a great personality in relating to kids in a fun yet mentoring way. We are so grateful to Steve for everything he has done for our son. It is amazing that he had been able to maintain consistent lessons despite a global pandemic in the midst. Patrick began lessons in person in January 2020 but just two months later the pandemic hit. Steve immediately modified and offered a plan to connect virtually. He was flexible and responsive to our needs throughout. This actually became our preferred method so despite that we could go back to in person lessons we decided that our son was excelling with virtual lessons and this method offered us flexibility amidst busy family schedules. Steve has continued to expand his music technology for zoom instruction and it had been an incredible experience. We so highly recommend Steve Burcheri to you as a truly dynamic and incredible guitar teacher!

Steve is a great teacher. I was a bit reluctant at first since online learning was never my strong suit, but Steve does it in a way where it feels like he’s right there in the room showing me ways to improve. I started playing at the age of 32 and in only a short time feel like I’ve come such a long way, and that would not have been possible without Steve. I’ve learned so much more then just a few songs that I like, these lessons have given me a better understanding of why certain notes and chord progressions work musically. All lessons have had a great balance of playing music, with a dash of theory mixed in so I understand why I’m doing what I’m doing. Would absolutely recommend him for lessons on any instrument, as well as all ages and skill types.

Been taking guitar lessons from Steve for 3 and one half months!! This guy is awesome! He comes to your house! The price is great, and you will get the benefit of lessons from very talented musician who has been doing this for over 40 years! He'll take you from A to Z with a structured individual lesson plan that willl fit the very beginner or a more intermediate player according to that players individual ability!! Steve is a has a really relaxed easy goin' approach to teaching that is not intimadating or hard to learn!! He takes his time and has The Patience of a Saint!! Lol lol. I'm a 66 year old guy with arthritic hands and am a bit hard of hearing, and Steve has been great with me!! I can't believe how much i've learned already!! I would give Steve 5 stars, and highly recommend him to the aspiring beginner or more advanced guitar player!!
