Sorry but I can’t choose just three of those qualities because they all apply. These guys were just great in every way. Everybody really enjoyed their music and their sweet personalities and they were the perfect addition to making our day the total and perfect success that it was. Can't say enough really good things about them and will highly recommend Alf and Bill every chance I get. I wish I had a pic of me with these fellas but I don’t. My very best wishes to you Alf and Bill and I hope you continue to have every success.

About ALF's
Patience and having fun. Music teachers can be rigid and not flexible. Learn at your own pace in music you enjoy. Seeing a student's eyes light up, when they get it.

Alf is enthusiastic, skilled, and caring!
I am a total beginner with no previous experience whatsoever on playing the guitar and I am very happy with Alf's method of teaching. He is super friendly and when you have mistakes he always try to look for the positive side in those mistakes to keep you motivated.
Alf is a wonderful instructor with amazing passion. Our son really enjoys lessons and now my husband wants to start taking lessons too. Thank you Alf!!
Alf is great teacher! I am very happy to have found him on Thumbtack. I started taking guitar lessons from him having no techinical knowledge in music or ability to play the guitar. He came to the store to help pick my first guitar! Barely 2 months into taking classes now, I can play several chords and maybe even a full song if I tried. He shows passion in teaching. His lessons are very clear for a beginner and he is genuinely interested in my progress. I high recommend Alf to anyone looking for guitar lessons.
He is very knowledgeable, understands our need, and is very friendly too!
Alfonso, is very passionate about teaching guitar. He is very professional and articulates each lesson plan(s) in an easy understandable way. I would recommend Alfs to any newly beginning or seasoned guitar player looking to take his or her guitar playing it to the next level. His lesson plans are easy to understand yet challenging enough in helping you achieve your goals.
Alfonso is a terrific teacher and has been very helpful in getting me started. I am a complete beginner and Alfonso has been wonderful in answering my questions and helping me pick out my first guitar. His lessons are fun and packed with things to practice on during the week. After each lesson he sends a detailed email reviewing what we covered and what to practice on. He is very responsive to questions via email and offers helpful advice and encouragement. I would highly recommend Alfonso!
