Paul is a fantastic teacher. He is really good at tailoring the lessons on an individual basis and keeps the passion alive to keep you playing.

Paul is great at starting someone from the ground up and making the concepts easy as well as carrying the lessons and progress week over week!

I've been learning guitar through Paul for a few weeks now, and honestly he has me hooked on playing! He's very realistic with you and gives you an actual practice plan for you to do when you're home. Your progress will definitely improve as long as you practice outside of the classes! He's very passionate about what he does and will always put your goals in mind when he's making curriculum for you! As someone who was very nervous about getting a teacher, Paul is super friendly and honestly deserves his own business one day. I'll be going to Paul for years to come I hope!

I’ve been laying for more than 50 y and s but did not know how to solo and improvise. In just a few lessons my ability to play lead guitar dramatically improved. Plus, Paul is fun to work with.

Paul drafts his lesson's around what you want to learn. Whether its intricate music theory, song design, or just general questions about tone.. he can prepare a lesson around what will help you achieve what you want. Would absolutely recommend Paul to anyone looking for a teacher!

I’ve had a couple private guitar teachers before Paul and they all seemed to be doing the same thing: trying to teach me the way they wished they had been taught. Paul has a vast understanding of music and genres that when I want to mix up song options to learn on, he’s always able to accommodate and make more suggestions I hadn’t even considered. He meets me where I’m at, he takes into consideration what I’m interested in and is able to tailor (on the fly, sometimes) a session to meet that. All the while pressing me to be better. He’s totally worth it. I highly recommend him!!!

If you want a good teacher for guitar or bass I highly recommend Paul. Very relaxed environment and will go at whatever pace you need.

I have been taking lessons from Paul for about six months now. I’ve truly been amazed by how quickly I’ve progressed thanks to Paul’s masterful teaching and guidance. He is able to perceptively recognize where I am and where I could be. He offers helpful suggestions and tailors the homework to my needs and level. Would recommend him to anyone looking for a great teacher!

Paul is an extremely knowledgeable and humble teacher. I have had about 35 odd classes with him and each of those classes have been a nice easy learning experience. It has helped me grow as a guitarist. I definitely rate and recommend Paul as a teacher in various genres of music. Without a doubt, I wouldn't shy away from taking another class with him.

Paul is a great teacher. He's patient, has a good sense of humor, knows what he's doing, and clearly really enjoys teaching. He does a particularly good job challenging you to push yourself while understanding that there will be weeks when you don't make as much progress. I highly recommend him!
