Michael has been an amazing guitar teacher for our 15 year old son, Owen. He strikes the perfect balance of being encouraging, fun, and incredibly knowledgeable. Michael’s musical gifting quickly became so obvious, that we lovingly refer to him as Obi-Wan, the Jedi of instruments. Week after week, Michael has presented the complexities of guitar in a way that is manageable for Owen, and yet gives him plenty to practice throughout the week. Owen genuinely looks forward to every lesson and has made incredible progress—not just in skill, but in confidence and creativity. It has been the best money we’ve spent on his education this last year.
Highly highly recommend!

Michael is hands down the best tutor I have ever worked with! He is patient, kind and cares about your success and growth. I worked with Michael for a few years going through Music Theory 1,2 and 3. He was careful to explain each concept thoroughly, breaking it down in a way that was tangible while providing tips and tools along the way. Whether you are looking to learn or progress on an instrument you’re passionate about or wanting to pass your Theory class, Michael will have your back and support you each step of the way!

I had and am having a great experience learning guitar! Michael is super patient and explained everything clearly. We focused on technique and rhythm and I felt like I made real progress. It was fun, challenging, and really motivating. I’m already looking forward to more!
Beginner training plan
Your first lessonWe’ll start off getting to know each other a little bit! In our first lesson we will focus on hand position, how to hold the instrument, our first 3-4 chords (G, C, D, Em), and basic strumming patterns. We’ll end the lesson playing your first song!
Lesson 11+This is really up to you! Some concepts we can focus on and continue to polish:
• Bar chords, Major7th chords, Minor seventh chords, triads, jazz harmony
• Advanced soloing, riffs, and leads!
• Ear training, learning songs by ear.
• Arrangement and playing with a band
• Fingerpicking, finger style guitar.
• Etc.
