We really enjoy working with our teacher, Carrie. She is very calming and supportive for our young son who takes lessons. She works with him on fundamentals but also lets him learn pop culture songs which increases his interest in learning. We have had a wonderful experience.

We have had a great experience working with Southtown Guitar over the past 3 years! Our two boys have taken guitar lessons and I feel that their teachers at Southtown really took the time to get to know them and tailor their teaching style to work with them. Our boys have continued to progress and enjoy their lessons and I couldn't be happier!

David gives me helpful tips to correct things about my singing technique and make them better. He has helped me tremendously with my foreign language songs. He finds ways to explain how he would like me to sing something differently and how it would help make me sound better, in a way that makes sense to me. He is also very friendly, experienced and very approachable. I like hearing him tell me about his time in performances. I enjoy having voice lessons with David very much.
