Mansfield , based in Marquette Gardens, brings a real passion for jazz into each guitar lesson. I’ve learned a lot from her focus on chord voicings and improvisation.

Learning is fun and easy for my 3rd grader and all thanks to Mansfield . She uses colorful visuals and uses familiar songs to keep things exciting. It’s great seeing my child enjoy music while actually picking up chords and rhythm naturally. I highly recommmend Mansfield guitar lessons in Highland Groves.

I discovered Mansfield kid-friendly guitar tuition after relocating to Apalachee Ridge. My son's passion of playing was rekindled by her blend of structure and enjoyment, and she now eagerly practices every day.

I'm based in Forest Hills and having a great time taking lead guitar lessons from Mansfield . she taught me and focused greatly on my shaping my tone and subtle vibrato and people now say that my solos do all the talking for me. I'm so grateful to have met her.

My teen didn’t want to play guitar at first, but Mansfield helped her become a confident rhythm guitarist. Her way of teaching with songs really worked for her.
