After many years of trying, and failing, to learn to play the guitar, I am finally able to play. Jeff has motivated me, just like his other students. He encourages students to learn riffs and solo melodies, along with the chords associated with any given song, so you will have a better understanding of the song structure. The student coffee house jam sessions add an element to his teaching that is not available with other guitar instructors. Jeff not only teaches you how to play music, he teaches how to perform in a public setting. His teaching methods build confidence and make the challenge of learning the guitar fun. Jeff is an excellent guitar instructor. By the way, I am an adult that is finally fulfilling my life-long goal of learning the guitar. I know there are other adults who, like me, wanted to but never really learned to play the guitar. While many of Jeff’s students are young, he is excellent at teaching adults and, because of the range in students, he is able to teach a variety of songs from the 1970s to 2011. Whether it is rock’n on an electric guitar or jamming on an acoustic, I highly recommend him.

WOW! just 2 months in and I have already joined a rock band. After all that time playing guitar hero on my play station, I finally threw that lame plastic guitar down, and started playing the real thing. Not only is Jeff a great guitar instructor, he’s funny and I always leave my lesson feeling great with tons of new cool stuff to practice. Staring a new instrament can be intimidating, but with Jeff’s teaching style, and great personality all those feelings go right out the window, so you so you can just start jamming and having fun. Playing guitar is commitment, but completely rewarding in many ways. I highly recommend anyone who is remotely interested in playing guitar to call up and try a Fearless Fingers Lesson.

I highly recommend Jeff as a guitar teacher. He is tremendously talented and passionate about playing. The lessons are fun and continuously build on each other. I agree with previous poster that Jeff provides the right balance of pressure and encouragement to excel that makes you push your boundaries. He arranges regular café appearances by his students which is also a great motivator.

Jeff is a great instructor. His mastery of the guitar and guitar styles is impressive. He’s introduced me to music theory, which makes it possible for me to do much, much more than just a few licks and tricks. I appreciate that he pushes me to excel and provides genuine encouragement. I can’t wait to get to class and I always feel great on the way home.

Jeff is very patient; when I got frustrated over the notes and rhythm he walked me through it. He gave me cool songs to learn and practice. He helped me greatly improve my guitar playing in just a couple of months. I bought gift certificates for my friends so they could learn from him too! Happy customers all around, I highly recommend him.
