Review by Tristen
"I started taking lessons as a complete beginner (a couple months of self teaching) and since then I've surprised myself with what I can now do with an ele
ctric guitar. Eric's home studio is a comfortable learning space where together we've worked to achieve my goals on guitar and also the bases for guitar (scales, modes, keys, progressions, voicing, etc.). I highly recommend Eric, he will work with you to get you where you want to be as a musician"

Eric is a great teacher. I had taken lessons from someone else several years ago. Eric was immediately able to adjust to my skill level, and
pushed me further in just a few weeks than I had ever hoped. He's very patient, yet is always getting me to get better.
He's great, communication-wise. He's even sent me vids, showing me how to tackle problems.
His knowledge is incredible. But the important thing is that he shares what he knows - technique, rock, blues, classics, theory -- it's all there!
Bottom line - if you want to improve, Eric's your only choice."

Review by Robert
"Josh is an amazing teacher and musician. As an adult student I had lessons over the past 2 years, but was seriously lacking in areas of rhythm and overall
focus. Josh immediately began to get me back on track and I saw the benefits (literally) within days. Josh is patient, knowledgeable and very comfortable to be around. He never makes me feel awkward or stupid and is always gracious. His lessons are fun and no time is wasted. I truly believe he enjoys teaching and I look forward to my lessons. I would highly recommend him!"

"Learning to Play
Alex is a great teacher. He is extremely patient and very good at taking his time to explain the things you do not understand. It's easy
Alex is a great teacher. He is extremely patient and very good at taking his time to explain the things you do not understand. It's easy
for me to express my own concerns as well as ask him questions. I also think his teaching techniques are great. He uses songs of your choosing as well as knows plenty of songs to advance your techniques with the guitar in realistic stages. He is good with constructive criticism. I like his honesty and directness, but he never makes you feel like you can't do it. Alex can spot things wrong with your technique quickly and help correct them. He also promotes a positive environment for those not yet confident in their playing.
I am very happy with Alex as my guitar teacher and feel that I can learn so much from him and I would definitely recommend him to another guitar player."

Review by Doug
"Eric is a highly intelligent musician. He is very patient and encouraging. Eric knows how to teach as well. He can get the point of the lesson across in a
manner that is easily understood. I have had instructors before who were excellent musicians but just could not get the hang of teaching what they know. Eric also does not just "show you were to put your fingers". He teaches you "why you put your fingers where you do". His style of teaching is exactly what I was looking for. The fretboard makes so much more sense to me now. Rock on!"
