Guitar Teaching Testimonials

Michael is a great guitar teacher, who teaches skills beyond what is simply required for classical guitar exams. He teaching methods are engaging, and encouraged me to consistently practice the skills learnt in class. Michael’s teaching methods mean that skills learnt in the process of studying one piece, are applicable to multiple others and applicable beyond the focused examination. He found ways to make lessons entertaining, and removed the repetition often found when studying classical guitar for exams. I achieved high grades, up to Grade 6 in guitar thanks to Michael and wish I could still continue learning with him. Great teacher – highly recommended!”

My 2 daughters took guitar lessons from Michael. We are extremely happy with his teaching style & ability to connect with his students. He made guitar lessons fun for the girls. Not only is he a talented guitar player/teacher but is also very dedicated to teaching. I was keen on progressing the girls through AMEB grade levels and Michael made sure that the girls could progress through the grades without  sacrificing teaching quality.

Also, during multiple lockdowns in Melbourne, he continued to teach online with same enthusiasm & passion as face to face sessions.

We definitely recommend Michael to anyone looking for a star guitar teacher.

Michael is a good teacher because he really cares about his students and always wants the best from them. He also like to talk and really get along with his students and befriends them and make sure they feel comfortable when he’s teaching.

Michael is the type of teacher that you can go to to learn any genre of music. He puts a large emphasis on actually enjoying the instrument and really cares about the development of his students”.

Michael is a great guitar teacher for many reasons such as his skill, charisma and ability to break down concepts. However what sets him apart from the rest is his drive to instill a passion for guitar in his students. Whether that be via teaching students modern pop pieces or helping them through the classical curriculum, Michael’s teaching leaves students with a desire to learn more.

My son took guitar lessons with Michael for the past 5 years. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He has a great rapport with the students and genuinely cares about their progress. He is a very patient and flexible teacher as well as being amazingly talented. He is always very encouraging in his feedback to the students and somehow manages to build their confidence whilst providing constructive criticism. We were so sad to see him leave Vic and would continue lessons if he were ever to return.
