Leonard made guitar theory something I actually enjoy. Learning about intervals, chord progressions, and scale shapes gave me the tools to improvise with ease on both acoustic and electric guitar.

The electric sessions in Willow Creek truly helped my daughter, Leonard , find the confidence to perform Taylor Swift covers beautifully at his friend's secret Birthday party..

Living in Stronebridge I was curious to learn guitar, and then I met Leonard online. I was passionate about learning guitar, and he was passionate about teaching it to me, and here comes the match made in heaven. He is an Excellent teacher if you are too passionate to learn the Guitar.

My daughter learnt a lot from Leonard guitar tutoring here in Power Ranch and he is very creative as well as his classes are structured and organised. he’s helping my daughter with fingerstyle, arpeggios, and even how to use a capo properly. The lessons are at just the right pace for his age and skill level. I made no mistake by choosing Leonard that's for sure!
