Graduated from SFCM, I teach piano and guitar and always give the first lesson for free to see if we are on the same page. I really only prefer to do 30min lessons if you come to me or have more than one student to make it an hour. I am in the Southeast Portland area and walk/bus everywhere, so I'm only accepting students near the Oak Grove-Happy Valley area.

Alf is a great teacher and a nice guy. He has a very professional teaching setup with videos and customized lessons. He's helped me get back my excitement for playing guitar and I've already learned more music theory than I expected to learn. Very happy with these lessons!

Ryan is such an incredible teacher! He is thoughtful, intuitive, and worked with me in a way that made me feel comfortable and challenged. I was terrified to take lessons, and he put my mind at ease with a gentle, compassionate approach to music instruction. Ryan gave me the fundamental lessons, and then let me choose what I wanted to learn. This made me want to keep practicing and learning. I HIGHLY recommend Ryan for anyone, at any skill level.
