Howard S. says, ""I am a “Jazz” guitarist, so that is the context in which I know Clint as a teacher. I studied with Clint for about 3 years all within the past decade and can recommend him as a teacher without hesitation. The first thing that stands out about Clint is that he is an excellent guitar player. This shines through in his teaching method because he is very organized and has a clear vision of the step by step approach that can be taken by a student to improve his or her skills. There is a tremendous amount of guitar instructional material that is available both in books and on-line. The value of a good teacher can be to dispassionately evaluate a student's strengths and weaknesses and to suggest a focused course of action to get to that student's stated goals. I think Clint has those skills and can help make the path to improvement as a player both rewarding and fun. I havn’t seen Clint interact with younger students. I suspect that because of his focus he may be at his best working with older kids, teens, and adults, and of particular value helping high school students prepare auditions for college music programs" Read more

With 40 years of playing the guitar my students progress faster than the students taking lessons at a music store. I know how to develop the right and left hand coordination. Technique and avoiding the pit falls of improper practicing. Watching my student progress like do do, brings a smile not only to their face but mine as well. That's why I love teaching guitar so much!

I had the honor of taking class with Clint through the community college system. This man has taught so many people the joy of music, he deserves a medal. Quite honestly, I would recommend Clint’s classes to anyone even considering starting guitar or taking a refresher. His style, his technique, his patience, are all things to be in awe of. Whether his sight reading, transcription, proper technique he is the man to teach you. And if you’re lucky you might get a healthy dose of feel good!
