Expert level & very patient.
John is extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. Our first lesson we talked about my goals and worked through crucial exercises. I would recommend John to a friend.

Excellent vocal ad guitar and instructor, highly recommend
I’ve been taking singling and guitar lessons from John for several months and I’ve been able to learn several songs that include both guitar strumming and fingerpicking. We’re currently working to fine tune “Sorry seems to be the hardest word” by Elton John. We are also starting to work through Wake me up when September ends by Green Day.

New Elton John material
I’ve been taking lessons with John for a several months and can notice a definite increase in my ability to hit notes when singing. We are covering material that involves both guitar fingerpicking and singing. It’s quite challenging but I feel like l’m making progress and improving musically. During this lesson we went through about 5 different songs that I have been practicing. We have started working on an Elton John song that involves some interesting chord changes and vocals
