What Do students say?
“Talented. Gifted. Incredibly well-versed in music theory. Works well with children, tailoring his lessons to the specific interests of the student, and is easy to understand, weaving in an amazing amount of theory without you even knowing it. Highly recommended!” Jim R. Chicago, Il
“Brian is the best guitar teacher I have had and I have gone through a few. Regardless of style Brian's knowledge of the instrument is superior. I do not play classical but music theory does not change. He has a great ear and is a very patient person. He has the ability to break things down where they are understandable. A humble guy with great knowledge. Do not hesitate to check out his guitar teaching!!!!” Steve R. Chicago, Il
“I have seen substantial growth in my guitar playing due to Brian's patient, enthusiastic, supportive and insightful teaching. Lessons are rigorous but fun so you learn a lot but it never feels like work. Brian will allow you to pursue the style of music that excites you and his vast knowledge of music makes him capable of providing excellent instruction no matter what type of music that is. If you’re beginner or someone who's been playing for awhile but wants to take their playing to the next level- call Brian!” -Karen H. Oak Park, Il
“Brian's ability as a teacher really shines, always knowing which piece will further expand my abilities, identifying troublesome issues during tricky passages, suggesting an interpretation that is in line with the style, all the while having a kind patience that made our lessons stress-free. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking high proficiency with the guitar.” -Robin L. Chicago, Il
