“Tod is
a wonderful teacher. He finds a perfect balance between the technical aspects
of learning guitar and learning songs that I ask to learn. I look forward to my
lessons every week.” Maddy
“Tod is an
amazing teacher. Instead of
following a rote path of
instruction, he lets students pick the type
of music they want to play,
and then adapts his teaching style to impart
the necessary techniques
and music theory along the way. He believes that if playing is fun and
rewarding, then students will continually
push themselves to learn more.
He has helped me reach a place I never
thought possible.” Thayer

have been taking lessons for just over 2 years…..my expectations were

playing, and most of all, am completely enjoying myself......the fundamentals
Tod taught right from the beginning are now starting to really show……I could
not say enough about Tod as a teacher.”

“Playing
guitar with Tod is a lot of fun and he is a great teacher and it is easy to
learn when he is teaching you. He always keeps it interesting and exciting and

"Tod
has always been an influential teacher to me. In fact, his skills and teaching
abilities have enabled me to become a better player and more musically
inclined. His instructing method has led me from the basics of reading music to
discussing uses of a Mixolydian mode. Not only has Tod been an outstanding
teacher, but also a great friend who I have had more fun with on Wednesday
nights. I can't tell you what a difference Tod has made in my playing and ease
on the fretboard." Tommy
"One
summer my brother just played the guitar in my face and I got envious! So for
my birthday I got myself a nice guitar and lessons with Tod. I couldn’t
practice too much at home, but I had a great experience when I started jamming.
It is great.” Mark
"Tod
has not only been an excellent teacher, but a mentor as well. I highly
recommend Tod, not only as a guitar teacher, but as an individual. He has had a
positive influence on my life, from the beginning and still to this day.
He is perfect for young people,
who are looking to learn guitar the right way, from the onset.” Donald
"In all of the
phases of learning guitar that I’ve passed through there always seems to be a
few difficult steps to get to the next level. Tod has always helped bring me
through those steps. This has taught me that with determination I can do
anything." Megan
