Norman is an excellent teacher. I have been with him for just over a month now and I have came leaps and bounds. It's my first instrum
ent that I have tried to learned and I can read music and play duets with him. He's friendly and very knowledgeable of the material also. I would say that in a couple months I will be dazzling my friends and family. So if your thinking about an instructor then Norman would be a great investment."

Review by Will
"No better guitar teacher than Andy. I began with him when I was 10, and was able to progressive extremely because of his knowledge and methods of teaching
. I am now 21 living in Paris, playing gigs and still remember and have all those sheets of scales he gave me years ago!
Anyway, hope all is well. If I ever find myself back in Dallas I will make sure to give you a call."
