I’ve been playing guitar for 25 years and took lots of lessons in that time. I developed my own way to approach the guitar, which I think could be more engaging for the student.

Our daughter has taken guitar lessons from Jeff Hammond for two years. He does very well working with her. She has made so much progress, and she enjoys playing guitar. He comes to our house for lessons which really saves time for me as a working mom of three children.

Matt is a wonderful guitar instructor. He understands that everyone learns differently and works to make sure he's using techniques that work best for the individual. He's able to break down complex theories and/or techniques into easily digestible chunks that allow you as a player to progress faster than you ever could on your own. Highly recommend Matt for anyone looking for a great guitar teacher!
