I’m based in Park Slope, and Christopher guitar coaching sessions have completely changed how I play. he focuses not just on playing the right notes, but on expressing emotion through tone and dynamics.

Finding the right tutor was a challenge, but Christopher in cary parkhas been amazing. he tailors each session to my child’s interests, from Taylor Swift covers to guitar scales, making every lesson super engaging.

Being at Clyde, I met Christopher online as a guitar teacher and never thought he would help me this patiently and make me learn guitar.

Never met a tutor who encourages you more than what Christopher does! Christopher helped me get stage-ready faster than I thought possible. I joined to play at church, and now I’m handling rhythm guitar confidently. His guitar lessons are very clear and structured and goal-based. Thank you Christopher for sharing your knowledge with me.

I was very stressed when my son told me that he wanted to participate in the talent show at Rockwood, but Christopher helped him sing along guitar and also gave him mentorship for the audition. Christopher is a lifesaver.

Christopher guitar coaching was a game changer for me. While practicing in my grove street apartment, I always hit a wall when it came to timing and fluidity.
