Testimonials
Joe is an excellent music teacher. He is very clear, attentive, and creative and makes the lessons and instruction feel fun and rewarding. My son is very excited about playing music.
Janet D.
Vince focuses on both technique and music appreciation. He gives equal weight to my learning how to play the guitar and my learning to love the instrument. He plans our lessons based on my musical interests and, in doing so, consistently finds inventive ways to work on problem areas.
Hannah G.
Joe has been teaching our teenage son guitar for over two years. In addition to being an accomplished musician and personable individual, Joe is able to communicate and instruct regardless of the skill level of the student. Our son enjoys the weekly lessons and continues to improve. We benefit from Joe being able to teach at our house as well as his flexibility when other activities conflict with lessons… we’re extremely pleased!
