His lessons are a great value relative to the quality of instruction you receive. I have made great progress in my playing throughout our lessons and would highly recommend him to anyone. Just ask him to rip it up and you will be in awe, feel inspired, and probably realize how far you have to go! Particularly helpful is his willingness to tailor learning pathways to your specific goals and tie in your favorite musicians and styles while also exposing you to cool, obscure, and interesting artists and genres. As a bonus, he will give you that good guitar wisdom, funny anecdotes, and show you that the instrument is a life-long passion project that requires curiosity about yourself and the world around you. Pretty helpful stuff!

We stopped in while visiting family and had a group of four adults along with my 12‑year‑old daughter. The staff was exceptional: friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely accommodating. Their inventory is impressive, with options across a wide range of price points, so there's truly something for everyone. They've built something special here. Highly recommended.

Our daughter played piano her first semester, which ended with a live performance of three songs at the Saxon Pub, presenting to over 100. The next semester she switched to vocals, with a live performance at the Far Out Lounge with her super fun band buddies. The students and teachers take the lessons very seriously but also have a lot of fun. There is one on one instruction blended with small-group instruction. I would say that the instructions provided for instruments (guitar, bass, drums, piano) are a little stronger than the instructions provided for vocals. But no private/one-on-one instructor can provide the super fun, motivating experience of playing in front of a large audience in an iconic Austin venue. That's what makes School of Rock so special for its students.

They also have a decent guitar selection. The associate was very helpful and friendly. We started talking about our own high school band days of yore and he took the time to look up french horn prices for me out of my own curiosity. The store can order pretty much anything you want and they are honest about price ranges for instruments. They won't try to pressure you into buying an instrument that is more expensive than what you need. I will definitely be back for more musical shopping!

I have not learnt much about the fundamentals of voice or vocals to base her against yet but after several more lessons I will rewrite my review to elaborate more about why I believe her to be a great vocal teacher/coach.

From what I have experience so far, I believe her to be the real deal when it comes to learning and understanding vocals and singing in general.
