I've learned piano a bit differently and some musicians I know. I used Youtube and as time passed by I loved the growth I made for just learning to play on song at a time, This took most of my life actually. Approximately 11-12 years. I'm not the best teacher to learn from however I will make sure you exel above my skill level. After I'm done it will be worth your time.

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!

I began taking guitar lessons with Thor about 5 weeks ago and he is an excellent instructor , Thor is focused on teaching me and explains and demonstrates all of the work we are doing , he is patient and enjoys passing his music skills on to me . Thor also never is in a hurry for our lesson to end , he always wants to get his lesson plan across even if it takes extra time which I really appreciate. So if you are looking for an excellent dedicated guitar instructor Thor is the right choice

I have been getting guitar lessons with Bryan for over two years. As a forty something year old, who can be very stuck in his ways, Bryan has been abundantly patient with my slow learning process. He is thoroughly knowledgable of the guitar, adapts to my learning curve, finds real life examples that helps move me along in the right direction. So very thankful I decided to go with Bryan as my teacher. He does the music world good simply being the kind of teacher he is.

Jason really understood my situation—a kind of writer's block about the rhythm of my lyrics. He zeroed in on the how and why of it and gave me very clear help that "unfroze" my writing. And production-wise, he's amazing.

Tod has a great breadth of knowledge when it comes to the guitar and music theory. Don't get me wrong, guitar theory and technique books and online videos are great. However, having an actual guitar instructor like Tod helps me fill in the blanks and figure out not only what I should focus on in my practice but how I should practice to improve my understanding of guitar theory and technique.
