I teach all popular and folk styles, from the classics to present day hits and top 40. Please note that I teach all skill levels in guitar, music theory, songwriting, and ear training.

Timon is a great guitar teacher. He balanced my request to do both a music structure learning (scales, chord construction) with actually playing tunes. The look that crossed my face when we started with Crazy Train must have been hilarious; he broke down what I thought was an impossible guitar tune and integrated scales into the lesson. Beyond technical knowledge and teaching ability he's just a good guy to spend time with and knows how to make lessons a lot of fun. 10/5 stars.

Timon is an amazing teacher! He takes the time to structure the lesson around exactly what I need. His easy-going approach makes learning fun and keeps me excited to continue to grow. His skills range past Mandolin. At times he will play guitar while I play mandolin which helps me learn how to work with other instruments! You will not regret lessons with Timon!

Timon is an excellent teacher and overall a wonderful person. He comes up with very easy to understand lesson plans that help me tremendously. He splits up the lessons well between theory, rhythm work, chord work and anything else I want to work on.
In my experience in trying to find a great guitar teacher, there are great players but sometimes they can't teach their craft - That is NOT the case with Timon. He is a brilliantly talented player but is also a gifted teacher. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to learn basics to advanced work on guitar!
