Introduction
Notice: I am accepting new students! I am, however, only doing online lessons for the time being, morning, afternoon, and evening times available Monday - Wednesday. Thanks for checking out my profile! Are you interested in being able to play lead or rhythm guitar in a band confidently? Want to learn to write songs? Want to learn to just strum along to your favorite records by yourself? I will teach you or your child all of the knowledge and tools needed to do whatever your dream is on your instrument. My aim is to help every student achieve their personal goals on their instrument within the context of a relaxed and patient environment that promotes a love of music! I achieve this by: 1) Individualizing lesson plans so that each student stays engaged and learns in the style that is best for them as learners. 2) Ensuring that students learn BOTH how to play their instrument as well as the theory behind what they are playing. This creates a more well-rounded musician that is capable of problem solving on their instrument and being able to play in a variety of settings.

I’ve been taking guitar lessons with Chris for about 9 weeks. While he is certainly an accomplished player and absolutely well qualified to teach, I am most impressed by, and appreciative of, his patience and positivity with my slow progress. I highly recommend anyone thinking about guitar lessons contact Chris and have a conversation with him about your experience, musical tastes, and guitar playing goals. He is easy to talk with and takes a keen interest in tailoring lessons to match your experience and goals. I cannot overstate how fortunate I am to have found. Chris as a guitar instructor.

Chris Collier is a music star in the making. Every aspect of dealing with him was a delight. He was very responsive to all queries prior to the event. He checked out the venue prior to the event for his own assessment. He provided a song list which was better than we could have doing it ourselves. On the day of the event he and his team showed up as early as 2pm for a 6pm event, to setup and test everything. When we came to the venue at 6pm everything was setup and ready to go. The music they provided was just superb. The dinner music was light and enjoyable, followed by dance music which had our guests dancing till 10 pm. The band played extraordinary music for four hours, at the end of which they were still willing to play more. I highly recommend Chris. Just a joy to work with and an excellent quality musician. Get him before he becomes too big to hire!

Details: Wedding reception • 101 - 150 guests • 31 - 50 years old • 51 or older • 12 years old or younger • Band • 3 - 5 • Variety • Banquet hall / ballroom

Super positive experience learning from Chris. He's very knowledgeable on both the guitar and music theory and incorporates both in his teacher. He is great about tailoring the lessons to your interests and goes at a pace you're comfortable with, while also pushing you to learn further. Would highly recommend!

Chris has been an amazing teacher so far, he has worked with me to create a curriculum tailored to my exact interests in music. I was hesitant to start online lessons, but he has been nothing but kind, patient, and flexible with me and I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to learn how to jam with friends, gig, or just improve musically.

Chris is awesome. I took a 20 year break from the guitar and picked it back up at the beginning of the pandemic. Chris worked with me to figure out my skill level and tailored his approach to the type of music I want to learn and play. He breaks down the 'why' behind what we're doing, which is critical to actually learning the instrument rather than just memorizing notes and patterns. Strongly recommend him to anyone wanting to play!
