"I have been taking guitar lessons from Sean for about a year. He has always been willing to make adjustments to his lesson plan to meet my needs and or abilities. He has been very patient and accommodating around my work schedule. All in all Sean is a great teacher that could take you as far as you would like to go in music. Definitely has been money well spent."

"I sincerely don’t believe I could have had a better teacher... He set me up with such solid rudimentary groundwork that I have been able to build upon it for years... I can think of no one more qualified to teach music."
