John D. says, "My name is John D and I am 49yrs old. My profession has me working in a demanding field. I can't tell you how much I look forward to my Monday night lesson timeslot with Howie Green. He and I both like hard rock and heavy metal. I have been with Howie just over one year now. I had no prior experience on the guitar. Howie has me playing songs I never dreamed about playing. At least not this soon. (And I am no special talent I assure you.) Crazy Train, Aint Talkin Bout Love, Nothing Else Matters by Metallica. I can play several Iron Maiden songs, some Black Sabbath and even some Beatles tunes. I'm learning some theory as well along the way. It is just a pleasure. Howie has removed much of the fear and intimidation I always had of the guitar. He has pulled back some of the curtain so to speak. Howie is positive and encouraging and always patient - yet challenging. He knows how to progress me from one proficiency to the next seamlessly. We play actual songs - or parts of songs that I can - and have fun. I always leave Howie somewhat surprised at what I can play after each lesson. It does take practice. There is no escaping practice. But Howie Green has me on my way. Good luck with whom ever you decide to take guitar lessons from. Just do it! You'll be amazed that in short order you can play. " Read more

Adults of all ages can learn to play blues guitar with the right instruction and regular practice.

I’ve had the pleasure of being one of Howie’s students for over five years now. I have spent my entire life watching my friends play guitar and decided it was time to join in on the fun. I was referred to Howie immediately after purchasing my first guitar. I was beyond impressed with Howie’s skills and repertoire of songs. Not only does Howie know how to play all of my favorite songs from start to finish with all the solos, he is excellent at teaching and explaining them. After playing for five years under the instruction of Howie, I can proudly say that I am beyond proud of my accomplishments in learning guitar. Howie has taught me chords, scales, rhythms, finger picking, music theory, and how to play actual songs. I strongly recommend Howie as a teacher for both beginners and advanced players. He is easy to work with and knows how to break things down. Howie’s years of experience of playing and teaching were evident on day one. If you are looking to learn how to play the guitar and live in the area, Howie is your guy.
