Student Feedback
Jason C, Great teacher!
I only had the opportunity to study with Jacob for a few months, but I really enjoyed our lessons and learned a lot. He's an excellent guitarist, is very well versed in music theory and has many strategies he can teach you to help learn different techniques and concepts. He's also a very cool guy and very dedicated to his music. If I wasn't moving I'd definitely continue my lessons with him.

Jacob is a great teacher. My daughter has had a few and connected well with Jacob. Praised his teaching style and how he listens to what she wants to learn but also teaches her what she needs to become better guitarist.
