“Evan is an exceptionally patient and talented teacher. He has been teaching my two children how to play the guitar, meeting them where they are with their interests and skill level. He makes playing an instrument creative and fun without the pressure, which is how it should be in my opinion to foster a long term love of learning. Plus given that he is an active musician, he brings the cool factor. Both my kids look forward to their lessons with Evan and I see them making tremendous progress.”

“I've always wanted to learn guitar since I was a teenager, but for some reason I never got around to it. Now, as a busy executive in his 40s, I was certain that time may have passed me by.
I had tried using apps and computer software but I found them basic, repetitive, and I quickly lost interest and motivation. Just when I had about given up on my dream of ever playing guitar, a friend of mine recommended Evan.
Not only did Evan reinforce and improve some of the basics that I had picked up over the years, but his flexible and patient approach to teaching had me playing some of my favorite songs almost immediately. Evan's way of demystifying the theory behind it allowed me to appreciate guitar in a whole new way and in less than two years I can play just about any song, improvise solos, and move up and down the fretboard with confidence.
I cannot wait to continue to learn and grow as a guitarist, and I owe it all to Evan.”

“Evan has been my guitar teacher for two years, and he is an amazing teacher. He teaches you whatever you want to learn and if you don’t understand something, he goes over it again and helps you until you know what it means. He’s taught me everything from writing songs, to playing songs that I like, to music theory. I feel like I’ve progressed so far in music after he started teaching me. He helps you progress if you want to just play guitar for fun, and he helps you with being a professional musician by helping you write songs and release them. Evan is so nice and is very passionate at his job, and I always look forward to my next lesson.”

“Evan is a great guitar teacher. I have been learning guitar from Evan for three years and I have improved a lot. He is patient and if I forget a chord he'll always show it to me. Evan makes it fun because teaches me songs I might know but he also introduces me to new music. We used to have recitals with the people he teaches guitar to before covid--they were really fun and they gave us a chance to show what we have learned. If you are thinking about doing guitar with Evan or having your child take lessons with Evan then I say go for it!”
