My goal makes my "service" stand out. My goal is for you to create music. You bring the music, and I will help you craft it. I am an award-winning poet (bet no other ad can say that), guitarist, and song-writer. We will not be using a manual, and we will not be playing pop (unless we make the pop song our own). LOL--i am quitting teaching ELA (English Language Arts) after over 20 years because it has become paint-by-numbers/teach-to-the-test. Sorry, but I do not do anything "paint-by-numbers" - including playing guitar and song-writing....

Alex G. says, "Hi, My name is Alex! I used to be a student of Matthew’s before he signed on for this site. As one of Matthew’s old students, I can truly say that Matt is a down to earth and very patient guy. He’s very pleased and thrilled to help others learn and was so with me. He taught me how a bass works, how to play, how to stay in rhythm, how to play with others, minor music theory, and he also taught me to have fun with it! And so on from there. Now playing for about three years, I am a lot more comfortable and more skilled to play with others thanks to Matt! I truly recommend him as a good, viable, determined, and dedicated instructor of both bass and music! :) " Read more

  • Master your key genres like jazz, rock, pop, and funk

What age is good to start bass guitar lessons?

  • Request a list of other students they've taught to check their experience.
