I was having trouble finding the right teacher until we met Blackwell in carpenter. She helped my son learn drop D tuning and play beginner rock riffs, all while being a fun and encouraging tutor.

Jazz sessions with Blackwell were something else. We’ve been diving into modes and chord extensions, and I’m learning things I used to think were too hard. she really pushes you in a good way. Definitely one of the best in Fulton Ranch.

Blackwell teaching transformed my playing and prepared me for my first live gig. she’s helped me focus more on my confidence building. Blackwell is the best in Graceland West for sure!

As someone living in Brooklyn, finding the right guitar coach was a challenge, until I came across Blackwell . Her approach is both encouraging and technically sharp. With her guidance, I recently uploaded my first complete guitar cover, and it feels like a huge milestone!

Being from Pleasant Street Historic District, I enrolled in Blackwell classes. She made jamming over blues tracks accessible and genuinely fun, even for a late beginner like me.

Being a beginner, I always thought that it would be difficult for me to learn guitarbut then I met Blackwell and she helped me learn guitar at Sterling Hills. Highly recommendable.
