"Reva has been tutoring our 7 year old daughter in reading for the last 6 months. She has been great!!! She is very patient with a welcoming demeanor. We, along with our daughter’s 1st grade teacher, have seen improvements from Reva’s time with her. We love that Reva incorporates reading games each time to keep things fun and light. Very happy we found her!!!

My musical story began at age 4 when I first embraced the guitar. Transitioning through private lessons at Brickhouse Music and Smith Music College, I earned my Bachelor of Music in Guitar Performance in 2013. Playing in diverse bands across genres like jazz, blues, and rock, I've devoted the last 13 years to sharing my knowledge through private lessons for youth and adults. Overcoming vision impairment challenges, I've come to see music as a healing tool, fueling my deep passion for teaching. 2018, I proudly opened the Shedore School of Music, inviting others to join me on a transformative musical journey.

"I knew I needed individual guitar instruction but was always hesitant because I knew I was terrible and was worried about frustrating an instructor. Dan's nature immediately eased all of my worries and made me wonder why I didn't do it sooner. He is an excellent instructor and has the patience of a saint. He tactfully pointed out areas I needed work on and was also quick to point out things I was doing well. He would spend as much time as needed on something I was struggling with and would always make sure I was comfortable before we moved on to something new. He's an extremely talented player himself and was very good at noticing things that I didn't even realize I was doing. If I was starting to develop a bad habit, etc., he always had a suggestion or something I could try to help me over a certain hurdle. There are many good guitar players, but not all of them make good instructors. Dan seems to have a passion for both playing and instructing, and he certainly has the talent for both. I would recommend him to anyone who has an interest in either learning to play or becoming a better player.
