About this pro
At MadChair, one thing that's very different from lessons elsewhere, is bringing in other musicians to jam in a band type setting once the student feels comfortable. This has proven to be a great aid in getting the student accustomed to performing with others if this is one of their personal goals. I am well versed in blues, rock and roll, metal, classical, funk, jazz, and reggae, and of course have always been passionate about teaching, no matter what style you're into.
I teach through Thumbtack as well, and my favorite part of teaching of course is watching my students progress! It benefits me for them do well so my brain is always in teacher mode no matter where I am.

’ve been taking lessons with Bryson and I’ve seen amazing improvements in my playing almost instantly. He’s an amazing teacher, who can tailor lessons based on what you want to accomplish and what you’re having issues with. Additionally, he’ll send you a video of what you learned that day after the lessons, so you can review and practice at home. All of that and he’s very affordable and flexible with his schedule. I’d recommend him to anyone trying to learn guitar. I was nervous about going to guitar lessons at 26 years old but now I look forward to it every week!

Bryson is very patient and professional. He makes sure I leave my lesson understanding and knowing how to practice at home. He’s never in a hurry and doesn’t mind my questions. I would highly recommend Bryson Granger.

What type of music they want to learn to play, and if they are interested in learning theory (the building blocks of music, learning standard notation, and how it all fits together).
