About Kevin R.

Lessons are specifically tailored to each student based on ability level, learning style, and goals. Younger children will focus more on technique and fun, but in every lesson it is my goal for my students to grow their own musical sensibilities. Above all, I love sharing with my students the joy that playing the classical guitar can add to their lives.

About Lenny R.
CloseI have spent the past 12 years of my life dedicated to the guitar. While obtaining my Bachelor's degree in Guitar performance at Oberlin Conservatory I was employed by the conservatory's secondary lessons department. This studio featured a diverse mix of college students, adults, and children. In addition I am Suzuki method certified and I was a summer instructor at the Amherst School of Guitar in Buffalo, NY. I have experience working with children from as young as 5 to as old as 65.
About Lenny
While studying with me we will work on many facets of music including technique, sight reading, critical listening, music theory, improvisation, and how to apply these skills to a piece of music to truly express yourself. My goal is to instill a deep understanding of music to my students while letting their individual sensibilities show.
STYLES: I can teach all styles of American music (i.e Rock, Blues, Country, Jazz, R&B etc.) as well as classical and fingerstyle.
I have a degree in classical
I have experience playing in many different bands in many styles including: Rock, Reggae, African, Blues, and Jazz groups.
SUZUKI METHOD: I am trained and certified in the Suzuki Guitar Method and spent 3 years teaching Suzuki in studio with children as young as 5. This involves a significant parent-teacher-student commitment and regularly yields impressive results.
ON TALENT: I agree with Shin-ichi Suzuki that talent is irrelevant and a myth. I believe that the potential of all my students are the same but they come to me with various starting skills levels and all learn at a very different pace. I believe that the myth of “talent” really just means that the individual has had a long exposure to music. This is why I emphasize critical listening in my lessons. If you have a large knowledge of music and sounds in your head it makes it easier to make connections and better assess your ideas.

I graduated Berklee College of Music - Professional Diploma in Performance (summa cum laude). During my studies at Berklee College of Music every semester I earned placement at Dean's List and 10 March 2016 I also received John LaPorta Award for outstanding achievement in my major.
After the graduation from high school in Novy Jicin I started to study acoustic guitar in which I pursued classical and latin music at the Jaroslav Jezek Conservatory in Prague, Czech Republic. Then I was admitted to a professional diploma program at the same Conservatory to study electric guitar where I studied jazz. I also invited lessons of rock guitar. Alongside the guitar, I was taking voice lessons and piano lessons.
I have more than 10 years teaching experiences. I was a guitar and music theory teacher in Prague at variety music schools and I also had many private students.

About Kevin B.
CloseI have been teaching, playing and performing music (guitar and piano) for the past 40 years. I have played solo, in acoustic duos and 4-6 piece rock bands. This balance between 15 years of classical training and 25 years performing in the United States and Canada makes me the right teacher for you.
About Kevin
I have over four decades of experience playing guitar in four-piece bands, trios and duos performing at hundreds of venues and festivals across the US. I have also written over twenty original songs, many of which were performed in set lists over the years -- one of which (“Avvagoodwon”) enjoyed some modest airplay during the summer of 1999.
I have an MBA and hold a robust menu of designations in management, purchasing, focus group direction and online marketing research – certifications which augment my passion for music and leadership expertise.
I look forward to sharing my (and developing your) passion for all things music and h

About Tony T.
Close
Hello, I’m Tony Tran. The way I instruct my students is I first find out why the students want to play the guitar. What are their musical interests and what are their main goals. I want my students to feel as though the guitar is a fun instrument and can really make an impact in your life and the people around you.
About Tony
My main goal is to make guitar easy, especially for those who are just starting. Playing an instrument is also a journey and the pride you have to be able to call yourself a musician is like none other.

I adopt an in-depth musical theory approach, where we learn chord progressions together and I give assigned practice to take home. I like to ask students what their objectives are, and to try to have them set goals that we work towards together.
