Feedback

“I am a person who has had a dynamic life and has achieved some success in business.  Taking guitar lessons as a young man is one of the five or six really good decisions I ever made.” -Bobby Griffiths 

“Matt has thought me for three months now and all I can is, what took me so long? When I first started lessons I could play Enter Sandman and few other riffs. Now I’m improvising guitar solos and writing actual music! He’s an amazing guitarist and has an answer to everything. I don’t know where I would be without him as a teacher and friend.” -Justin Miller, Student

“Matt, you are awesome and I can’t tell you how much you’ve helped me. It’s hard to keep practicing the same thing over and over, but It’s because of you that I’ve been practicing and learning so much. It’s amazing how much you know about music and guitar playing.” -Nicole Hughes, Student

“Matt is an expert, a totally cool dude and knows what he’s talking about. I was playing guitar solos after a few lessons. -Adam Weston, Student

“I developed a great understanding of music theory thanks to Matt.” -Curt Elmore, Student

“Matt showed me in person all the mistakes I was making, and had me playing “Love Story” in a little over a month. It’s a lot better to learn from him because he makes it easy and fun.” -Alahm Mussa, Student

“MATT ROCKS! and he is serious and committed to his future in music.” Pete Hartley, Colleague www.pete-hartley-violinist.co.uk

“Matt and I worked together in various music-related projects. I am of the opinion that you never truly know someone until you share some responsibility with them and see how they behave under pressure. In this respect, Matt passes the test with stellar results: accountable, hard-worker, non-linear thinker. It was a pleasure to work with him as I’m sure it will be in the future. You can trust this guy.” -Tommaso Zillio, Colleague. www.tommasazillio.com
