Luckily, there was a spot. From the beginning, Jesse has been a supportive, skilled, and experienced teacher. Jesse provides a balance between book instruction and popular music choices. It is evident that he truly enjoys what he does. To be honest, I did not expect my son would still be interested in playing guitar 2 1/2 years later. I thought it would be the typical situation where a child asks to play, then gets bored and quits. On the contrary - my son looks forward to his weekly lessons and has never wanted to quit. I know the big reason he has continued is because of the rapport he has with Jesse, as well as the enjoyment he gets when learning and playing new songs. I've enjoyed watching and hearing the progress! I am also very thankful that Jesse was able to successfully provide lessons via Zoom ever since our county went into "shelter in place" mode.!

I definitely recommend Mr. Young for lessons. They are superb value, and having my lesson online was easier for me and helped with my anxiety. He is truly a gem of a teacher.

My daughter is looking forward to her lessons and makes steady progress. Michael is very knowledgeable and - equally important! - knows how to share his expertise with his students. With his gentle and caring demeanor he is able to create a perfect learning environment. He aims for high quality but never makes a student feel bad about herself. Instead, he gently encourages our daughter not to quickly skip over the passages she finds difficult, but to especially focus on those measures during practice. Since starting lessons with Michael, my daughter added two more instruments -- clearly a sign that Michael is not only able to teach piano but also to instill a love of music.

This review is mainly for REBECCA…read more PROS: CCM was my first music school/music lessons! And my experience being taught by Rebecca was nothing short of amazing. I signed up for private guitar lessons (1-on-1) with Rebecca. They give you a free trial class (15 minutes), and if you enjoy it and want to continue, lessons are 30 min. each. And you get one lesson per week. In the short 30 minutes, I was able to learn SO much from Rebecca. She is patient, extremely talented and knowledgeable, and makes it easy to learn. You can tell she has a true love and passion for music. The female receptionist was sweet, and the studio had multiple rooms and was clean. CONS for the school: My only complaint is the price for lessons... It is so pricey for lessons being only 30 minutes long. & also, I did not appreciate the male manager's customer service. He is not warm at all.
