Reviews 👩🏻‍🦱 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ By Bianca in Alabama “Steven has been amazing!! I have little to no experience playing guitar, but I'm already getting the hang of playing well known songs! He does a great job of critiquing but also making the lesson fun! He tells me exactly what I need to do and the tools I need for the following lessons, so I always have a plan AND it's all in the comfort of my own home. I would highly recommend Steven, and if you're skeptical about taking an online lesson, don't be, because the attention Steven gives during lessons makes you feel like he's right there! Happy Strumming!” 👨‍🦳 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ By Tim in Coronado, California “Steven, a patient, gifted teacher has supervised my studies on guitar with good humor, wit and flexibility.

Thanks, Steven!” 👱‍♀️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ By Jackie in Chicago It was a great lesson. Steven is an excellent teacher. He is very patient and he is so caring. I really enjoyed meeting him over Skype.

He is talented, always enthusiastic, and extremely motivational! Each lesson is designed specifically for our daughter Kelsey's ability and desired genre of music! Kelsey began guitar and vocal lessons in the Coronado studio and is now taking lessons via Skype since our move to Virginia. The lessons are convenient, affordable, and productive. We are excited to be able to still have Mr. Steven as her guitar and vocal teacher!” 👩🏻‍🦰 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ By Heather in Vermont “Steven is very attuned to how to get the student started and playing guitar well. He designs each lesson to rapidly promote foundational skills for more advanced playing.

    Steve is very knowledgeable and very friendly and matches your learning pace effectively. His experience with guitar, piano, and vocals is invaluable, of course, but it's clear he also has a lot of experience in teaching, which is absolutely crucial for making his knowledge accessible to students. I've been taking lessons from Steve for about 8 or 9 months now and I've seen some significant progressive in my guitar skills over that time. I started as a complete beginner but I've gained a lot of confidence and comfort when it comes to guitar.

    I have been doing vocal and piano lessons with Steve. Over the time I have been, not only have I noticed a huge improvement, but friends, family, and strangers have too. When I began to perform again after taking a long break, I started getting standing ovations! And this was after I started working with him! He goes into every lesson in such a good mood which encourages you and pushes you to do better all the time. He goes above and beyond for his students, and I highly recommend him!

    Steven is an amazing teacher! I was skeptical at first about taking piano and singing classes online but after the first lesson I was confident that it's the best way to go. Steven knows how to motivate and scale the lessons appropriately. I've progressed so quickly and feel like I can really play the piano and sing. Don't miss out on taking lessons with Steven, you won't regret it.
