With Alex, my kids are more motivated, practicing on their own without being told and more adventurous in trying out new pieces they hear from the radio/YouTube/etc. My son is now happy playing Joplin and other classical pieces. My daughter is now excited to play for family and friends. The difference I've found with Alex, compared to the previous teacher is that he is patient and adapts to the kids' individual styles. He's supportive of what interests them and as a result, it fosters my kids' self-motivation to play and practice. When that happens, they not only learn faster, but they are happy and enjoying themselves in the process. Alex is able to teach them music theory/concepts and the mechanics of playing sheet music in a way that inspires them. I see a big difference in how they are playing now. I see they are more confident in their abilities and they are having fun when they play. We definitely recommend him! Thanks Alex!

He is patient, kind and calm with our son, who can be fidgety and easily distracted at times. Alex is always punctual for lessons and communicative when it comes to scheduling, cancellations, fees, etc. In times where we've had to cancel, he has been flexible with rescheduling lessons. Most importantly, our son enjoys his lessons, looks forward to them every week and has progressed significantly since working with Alex. We highly recommend lessons with Alex!

If you are learning guitar, or maybe just looking to advance your playing to the next level, look…read moreno further! I bought a guitar right before COVID and really wanted to learn it right (not just from YouTube and IG). Jerry had the highest reviews on Yelp, so I signed up. We do sessions once a week and it's been an AMAZING journey. What I expected it so get better and better at guitar. What I didn't expect (as a trumpet music major back in college, I thought I knew it all) was to deeply learn about music. Jerry is well respected Bay Area musician and has played for decades in amazing band as well as releasing his own album and has a YouTube channel. His grasp of technical guitar playing and music history is crazy (check out his YouTube videos!) While journeying through rhythm, rock, funk and jazz guitar; rock and blues solos, Jerry showed me that what I've learned about music is missing a ton. The progression of our lessons is to learn artists and their history, some theory, and step-by-step how to play influential pieces starting with the early days of blues and rock and roll and who influenced who and why (fascinating stuff!) As a result I've learned a TON of great songs (way too many to list here) from Blues: BB King to Jimi; Rock, Pop and Heavy Metal from Zeppelin to Clapton; Jazz from Charlie Christian to Pat Metheny; Modern music like Bruno Mars, Taylor Swift, Black Crowes, Pink, Ariana Grande; we've even hit up J-pop and K-pop! It's been 3 years now and going strong. Jerry has instilled in me a sense of curiosity about what makes music sound great and why some of the best music in history came from the 60's to 90s (he even wrote a book about it). Jerry has taught so much about the guitar and music in general. Every day is a journey.

I took both bass guitar and guitar lessons from Jerry in high school, and I will always consider…read morethose lessons to be one of the most fun things that I did during my otherwise studious and extremely nerdy teenage years. As his student, you will discover very quickly that Jerry is not only passionate about teaching guitar, but also about teaching music. This goes beyond just teaching music theory (which he doesn't skimp on, by the way, thank you Jerry!). I always loved hearing him talk about the backstory of each song I learned to play; not just the what, but the how and the why - the lifeblood of music itself. His teaching curriculum is very structured and intentional but never feels restrictive or impersonal, probably because Jerry as a person is very chill and relaxed, and you will immediately want to be friends with him. If you are looking for a guitar/bass teacher who is not only insanely talented but also has a true gift for teaching and makes lessons fun and exciting, look no further, because Jerry is your man!

Got to see him in action as a student in standard lessons and in a combo, where he helps students play together with other musicians - an invaluable tool to anyone interested in learning music.

David is well-rounded and teaches many instruments, which gives him a great advantage with instructing how to perform in an ensemble. David often plays with his students to give them that experience while learning particular skills or pieces. David also has a wonderful laid-back and creative approach to teaching. He teaches the core skills and structure but also allows space for riffing and just having fun with the instruments. I feel this has made a huge difference in our son's experience.
