Lee is patient, and he really explains what you are learning and he will go over it again if you are not sure. I would recommend LA Guitar School to anyone looking to learn guitar.
Great 1:1 lessons at LA Guitar School. Lee is a fantastic teacher – patient, knowledgeable and passionate about guitar playing. My son is playing music he knows and likes which makes lessons even more enjoyable. Love hearing the progress my son is making.
My son has been going to see Lee now for about 3 months and has made great progress. My son enjoys the lessons and Lee has an easy going nature. The cost of the lessons is also very reasonable and the location really convenient. Would definitely recommend to others looking to learn/improve their guitar skills.
My son has been having lessons for a while now, Lee is a lovely man, very patient, absolutely brilliant with teaching my son who has ADHD, my son looks forward to the next lesson
Fantastic instructor! My son loves going to his guitar lessons! Highly recommended!
