I have Known my instructor for about five years. During that time he has been my guitar teacher. He has taken me from a novice classical guitar player to a player of greater technique and ability. He continues to inspire my playing with a combination of patience and skill. We have grown in our relationship over the years, and he is always willing to listen to my technical issues.
He often is able to solve my problems with a precise and accurate "tip". His own playing is clearly at an exceptional level, and yet his modesty and humility always shine through. It has been a blessing for me to have had him as my teacher over the years. I hope this will continue in the future. I highly recommend Mike's Guitar Studio as your music school.

I have been taking lessons from Mike for over 6 years. Mike is without a doubt the best guitar teacher I have ever had. He has a plethora of knowledge, and is constantly improving my musical knowledge. Mike not only is a great teacher, but he is fun to be around, and I look forward to lessons each week. Mike recently helped me complete an album of 11 songs in his very own studio.
He is very fun to work with and knows a lot about the whole recording process. Mike is a first rate teacher, and I would recommend anyone who is looking for a private teacher to go with Mike.

My children (ages 13 and 10) have been going to Mike’s Guitar Studio for guitar and piano lessons for the last three years. Their instructor teaches in a way that makes it fun to learn and keep them coming back for more. They started with no music background and now they can play, read sheet music and appreciate music a lot more than they did before. There is nothing better than listening to them argue over who practiced more between lessons.
