Great first lesson! I learned quite a bit and am excited to learn more in my next lessons. Thanks Bill! 

Bill is very capable, friendly, patient, and efficient.  We've been at it for a month and it's going very well.  It's easy to tell that he's taught a lot.

He is really a fantastic guitar teacher. He knows everything how to teach guitar step by step.

Easily one of the best teachers I've ever had for any subject! As a computer science graduate, I recognize quality instruction. Bill will guide you and help you understand from your perspective. For example, he translates my understanding of coding to improve my performance with Chords, Scales, Rhythm, strums, licks, and other things I continue to practice. I am starting from 0, but I am well on my way to the ultimate goal of performing at an amateur's night!

Bill is an excellent teacher. He personalized my lessons to correspond with my experience and what I was trying to achieve with lessons. I realized after the first lesson I was already looking and seeing notes the fretboard differently, really, that was just the first lesson! While I've been playing for almost 35 years, I knew I still had lots to learn. Bill is a talented, accomplished, and easy to work with teacher. I definitely recommend him.

Bill is a very good teacher, seasoned, skillful, and patient.  My son got very interested since learning from him, very flexible too, sometimes to our last minute change, highly recommended!

Bill has helped me build a foundation with guitar playing with understanding the fretboard to building chords anywhere on the fretboard. Bill has also helped me with my rhythm and incorporating building chords and learning scales. Bill has challenged me and simultaneously been flexible with my schedule. He has made guitar-playing fun and inspired me to learn more and to challenge myself.

Bill is a great teacher and has worked with my limited availability. I recommend Bill to anyone, especially someone like me who is convinced that I can no longer learn an instrument. He is patient and has a plethora of knowledge!

Bill is an great instructor.  He’s friendly, very knowledgeable and very patient.  His experience really shows in the way he structures lessons and can zero in on my mistakes then tell me what I need to correct.  Highly recommended.

Bill has proven himself the best for all around teacher! I have been very impressed with how well he does at making the most of our lesson time. Very professional, extremely efficient and covers way more in the amount of time given than any other virtual teachers we have had to date.
 And he's so much more than excellent in music....when our young student turned ill, he so graciously worked with us and our unexpected last minute Dr appts to make continuing lessons an option - practicing throughout the week, gave our student something restful/relaxing to do during his weeks of recovery.... And that has been a priceless gift. We look forward to many more lessons. Thank you so much, Bill!

I got so lucky finding Bill. In addition to being a phenomenal player, he's a gifted teacher. These are two entirely different skill sets. Like I said, I got lucky. I'm not new to music, but I've grown more in the past month than I have in a year, all thanks to Bill.

Bill is one of the best guitar instructors I’ve experienced. He is highly skilled, obviously professionally trained, listens beautifully and plays beautifully. Bill is confident, patient and skillful in showing you the exact way to create a technique that supports the sound you’ve been looking for in your playing, and shows commitment in helping you to become a more fluid player. And he is not only professional, but also pleasant and supportive of your process. During the sessions he takes you through steps and builds those steps quite nicely throughout the sessions. You can’t go wrong with Bill, he has the skill, experience and patience to take you to whatever level of playing that interests you.

Excellent teacher!! Very patient, very knowledgeable. I really enjoy my lessons with him, and would highly recommend him.

Bill is the best. GREAT player. GREAT teacher. I couldn't be happier. - Michael

I've been studying with Bill for years, and I benefit from him tremendously!  As a teacher myself, I love how he strikes a balance between letting me set the direction for a lesson with my questions and goals but also how he is sure to focus on things that all guitar players must know to get better.  I feel like I leave every lesson with lots more tools for my toolbox.  Highly recommend!
