The guitar enjoys a renewed interest and revival. This has brought better and more available instruments and a huge selection of teaching materials including books, CDs and DVDs. However well written and directed, teaching materials are not able to see students holding instruments incorrectly. They don't prescribe or respond individually to students the way a patient practiced instructor is able to do.
Amarillo Guitar Lessons' Studio is located in our newly remodeled home. We have a pleasant waiting area where students can prepare for their lesson or safely wait for their lesson. The new spacious studio was added to the house just for the purpose of music!

My son has been taking lessons from Tim for a few years now. Tim is very kind and patient with my ADHD son. He is a wonderful teacher and always has a corny joke to share. Tim is a real pro. I highly recommend him to anyone wanting to learn. Thanks Tim!
