Living in Fox Valley, I was struggling to find a guitar teacher for my 10-year-old son until I met Timothy , who helped him take guitar lessons. He is an amazing tutor.

I started guitar tutoring in Layto Lakes with Timothy and he teaches in a way that really makes theory fun to learn and easy to understand. Instead of just memorizing things, he shows how to use it in real music. My lead playing has more structure and expression now thanks to his guidance.
