Alex is a great teacher. He does a really good job of breaking musical pieces into consumable parts and then pulls it all together. This results in one being able to learn and play complicated pieces they may have thought were outside their reach.

Alex is a great instructor that further nurtured the passion I had for wanting to learn guitar. Going into our lessons, I had a drive to learn but lacked direction on where to focus that drive so I could progress as a player. Alex has a book to go through which structures your progress. The material is great and Alex is always available to clear up any questions you might have while also providing his own insights into making the theory and technique intuitive. On top of that, he helps you learn songs you yourself have been wanting or learning to play. Sometimes, there's overlap between the material you're learning and the song you're learning and it creates for a great time to apply what you've learned actively. If you're serious about learning guitar, and want someone friendly and skilled to help you go to the next level, Alex is your guy.

I have taken lessons from Alex for nearly 15 years. He is professional, an excellent communicator, and has a strong commitment to fundamentals. He loves all music and there isn't a style or genre of music that he can't play or teach. Classical, Blues, Country, Rock, and pop! He can figure out problems with a technique and quickly finds ways to make me improve it. He is always challenging me to take chances and to be better! He is a great teacher who connects with students from beginners to experts!

My daughter has been Alex' student for a while, and she really likes him!! He is very patient and reliable. I only have great things to say about Alex! I strongly recommend him as a teacher.

Alex knows how to effectively communicate with children. He always starts his lessons off by checking in on how the students are doing, which shows he cares about their well being. This approach really made my daughter feel comfortable and didn’t feel like this would be daunting to her or I (as the parent).

His lessons have been very effective, as he is very patient with demonstrations and guidance. He uses different methods and approaches; tailors lessons to the needs of the student.

I highly recommend Alex!

I'm a student of Alex, and he is amazing. Alex doesn't teach like any normal teacher though. He lets YOU chose the song, and then he figures out how to play it and teaches it to you at your level. 11/10

Alex is a wonderful teacher. We have two daughters who have taken piano lessons from Alex for over a year now. He comes to our house to give lessons, which is an invaluable convenience for our busy schedules. Alex is always punctual and communicates well in the rare instances there is ever an issue (illness, blizzard). Our daughters vary in age and skill on the piano, and Alex is excellent at meeting them right where they are. He's caring, positive, enthusiastic, and the girls look forward to seeing him every week. And to top it all off, Alex is an excellent teacher of the piano!

I am at 60-something beginning guitar student. Alex has been my teacher for about 2 years. He teaches with an encouraging, supportive, and demonstrative style. He ensures that I am working on things that I want to work on while also making sure that the things I’m working on will benefit me in the long term. He’s patient, fun and smart.

Alex truly understands the individual skills and training needs for each of our children. Very patient with them, highly recommended!

My son has been taking guitar lessons from Alex for over 5 years. He is not only knowledgeable about playing/technique, he also knows a lot about the science behind sound as it relates to the guitar, which my son finds very interesting. My teenage son says Alex is very patient and understanding. He has really good analogies he uses to explain ways to remember information. Alex allows students to select music that they are interested in learning. Alex gets to know his students on a personal level and is very positive and encouraging. We would 100% recommend Alex!

Alex teaches guitar to my 10 yr old son. He has developed a great rapport with him and does a nice job of tailoring the lessons to his level. His approach incorporates development of fundamentals and technique while also achieving short-term accomplishments, keeping motivation high. The progress has been very impressive!

When the student is ready, the teacher will appear. Alex is my first music teacher. Three years ago I got new hearing aids, a guitar, and the best guide for the music learning path I could find. Alex knows music, lives music and has the professional teaching ability to make music live through his students.

Using my playlist, Alex has taught me: how to play, how to listen, how to hear, how to understand and how to have joy through music. He can make it easier to learn. He can make it easier to want to practice and play better. He has brought me joy through music lessons.

Alex is a great instructor. My daughter is very shy and Alex and her have built a great rapport! She is learning a lot and loves to practice!

Alex is a great pianist. He has been teaching my daughter piano lessons for a year now. He has patience and is always on time for the lessons. He is one of the best piano teachers and I really appreciate the work that he does.

Alex has been teaching guitar to our 12-year-old son for the past 2.5 years and it's been an awesome experience! He does a really good job keeping an energetic, sometimes easily distracted kid engaged. My son says "It's awesome because Alex can work with me on any song I like and he's funny and attentive!"
