    My son Dana started learning the guitar with Jason when he was in 5th grade. If it had not been for Jason's enthusiasm and patience, I don't know how far Dana would have come but he ended up loving it. Jason encouraged him and let him play what he wanted - while also teaching him the basics. It made learning fun. Dana is now in 10th grade and in the school Jazz band playing the guitar still and loving it. I highly recommend Jason as a teacher!

    Jason is a fabulous teacher. He has spent numerous hours with our son, starting at age 4, teaching him basics and really just feeding his interest in music and performing. Jason couldn't be more patient and engaging, especially with early learning. We are very lucky to have found Jason and look forward to more lessons soon.

    Jason is truly excellent. My husband and I decided to do guitar lessons for our two girls who are 9 and 7 and were fortunate enough to have landed Jason. He is amazingly patient and manages to keep my two busy girls captivated for an hour every week. In fact, Friday guitar lessons are one of the highlights of their week. He has covered basics and in just a few lessons has the girls strumming parts of a few of the songs they love. I highly recommend Jason! He has gone above and beyond and completely exceeded our expectations.
