About Rick Taylor Music

I have developed my own curriculum unlike any others I have seen. This is based on my study with multiple advanced instructors. Students not only learn to play but they "understand" how music works which makes them "fluent" at it. Seeing people succeed and helping people expand their enjoyment for music by playing and to share my passion for music which can be contagious. I want to see you accomplish more than you can on your own. It is difficult to find the time and motivation, so I will help you to accomplish your goals.

Rick is an excellent teacher.

Have only been working with Rick for two sessions so I am still evaluating our relationship.

Rick understand my beginning level and challenged me to learn prelude in G Major as my first assignment which will test my focus and in my opinion, the willingness to learn.. I’m really excited to show that I’m dedicated to being taught…

Awesome teacher

Rick is very accommodating and has a great teaching aspect. My 14 year old daughter is learning a lot only after a couple sessions. Very timely in his response and extremely patient.

Rick was exactly what I was looking for. I knew some chords, strumming, & some other basics before meeting him but, in just the few weeks I’ve been working with him, I feel like I already have a way better understanding of music than I ever had. I look forward to many more lessons with him. Great & personable guy.

Seemed to click when we met for the first lesson. Nice and easy style of teaching. Good fit.

I am so lucky to have found Rick. I not only am learning songs, he is also teaching me the theory of music and how chords are formed. I am new to guitar, had my second lesson and can figure out most chords. He teaches the direction I'm interested in. I can't wait to see what he teaches me next. I have coworkers that have been playing the guitar for a long while and I already know more about notes, cordes and theory than they do. Now I just need to practice, practice, practice to be able to play as well as they do. And some day, I hope to be better. With Rick, I believe I will be, in time.

Rick is quite skilled in teaching guitar. He has taught me theory, technique, and starting to read some music. I am 60 yrs old and new at the guitar. Rick is very patient and doesn't mind me needing repetition. I might add that I am working with a 3 string cigar box guitar which is a bit different but Rick has had no issues in helping me with this instrument. I highly recommend taking advantage of his expertise. JP
