Matthew G. says, "There are some people that, upon interacting with them, make you realize why they do what they do. A teacher through and through- and a passionate one, at that- Jaf is one of those special people. I've been playing guitar for almost 20 years and he has made it feel brand new again. I wish I had started doing lessons with him earlier. I refer to him as the "guitar wizard," and it seems this wizard has dug me out of my intermediate rut, putting me on a path towards mastering the guitar for life. Highly recommend!" Read more

Guitar Lessons with Jaf
Maia S.
He's a great teacher: encouraging, but also knows when and how to critique and not discourage a beginner. Makes sure it is challenging, but not overwhelming. Encyclopedic knowledge of jazz and music theory. Definitely recommend!

Joe recently came to us to teach our twin sons, beginners and age 6.5. On his first visit he got them excited about piano and learning and was able to teach them concepts they grasped immediately. He has the gift to encourage to do well in a playful but firm way that speaks to kids. I highly recommend his teaching approach and we look forward to continuing instructions with him.
