“Back in high school, my attempt at learning the electric guitar fizzled out due to an unenthusiastic teacher who ignored the songs I was interested in. ![]()
A decade later, I gave it another shot with Nick, who turned out to be everything I hoped for in a teacher. ![]()
With Nick, I get to play music that excites me, all while advancing consistently. He focuses on ensuring that my learning aligns with my interests and pushes me when necessary. ![]()
I couldn't imagine a more ideal guitar instructor.”![]()
