Morgan teaches my son piano and guitar and our entire experience has been amazing! My son has an awesome relationship with Morgan and he’s not only learning, but he has so much fun every time they meet. Morgan makes learning music fun, while also teaching the skills needed to be a great musician. Would recommend him to anyone and we are so glad we found him!
Morgan is a great teacher who takes into account the needs/likes of the student to make for the best possible learning experience. He has a great teaching style and funny jokes that will keep you engaged for each lesson.
Great teacher and great guy !
I’ve been taking lessons with Morgan for a little over a year while balancing a full time job and he’s always been understanding of the time I have to practice while holding me accountable towards progression. I would highly recommend to anyone!
Great positive instructor who listens and then starts right away working with you I think he did a great job and have 2 more lessons with him!
Morgan is fantastic! He is an incredible Musician, and a patient, talented Instructor. My children are 6 and 9, and he finds ways to keep them engaged and learning. Morgan worked with our family to find a schedule that worked, and is punctual and reliable. He's easy to work with and flexible. I HIGHLY recommend him!
Morgan has a great teaching style and brings fresh ideas to learning, I really enjoyed my first lesson and am looking forward to practicing and having more lessons with him!
Best guitar instructor, you can tell him what types of songs you like the most and he cuts you into it right away.
I started lessons with Morgan after I felt like I had hit a plateau in my self taught guitar learning. Since beginning lessons I have made improvements at a much faster pace and have had more fun doing it than ever before. He is a great person and an amazing teacher. Looking forward to seeing my progress even further down the road. Thanks Morgan!
I asked my 15YO son how he would describe Morgan to prospective students. I took notes while he talked: * Friendly and fun * Keeps lessons interesting and engaging * Tells stories, makes jokes * Monitors progress, sets clear goals that set students up for success * Praises, congratulates students on progress, always finds something positive to say * Not too strict, doesn't put too much pressure on me * Gives good advice (about music, equipment and life) * Seems like he genuinely cares As a parent I will add that Morgan is reliable and communicative. I'm so grateful that he has been able to motivate our son.
Our son was losing his interest in playing piano and growing very bored with the standard piano lesson books. So, we decided to try another instructor before allowing our son to quit altogether. We are so thrilled we found Morgan! Our son is enthusiastic about his lessons and now enjoys playing the piano. Morgan collaborates with the student (and parents) to find ways to inspire the student and encourages them to push themselves. He incorporates both book lessons with creative music selections based on what the student enjoys listening to. Within the few months Morgan has been teaching, our son's playing has improved triple-fold.
Morgan is great! His approach is very collaborative, lessons never feel like a chore. He is enthusiastic and endlessly encouraging! His love of music, and of teaching music, really shines through.
Morgan has been great at working with my son and I. Flexible and laid back and truly knows his craft.
What a great guy and teacher. My children are already WAY more engaged in their music and the way Morgan connects with each of my 3 kids is amazing. Book him NOW, but do not try to take my time slot…
Morgan is an awesome guitar teacher. He is very knowledgable, kind and has a system to help you keep making progress. Highly recommend!!
Morgan has been a fantastic teacher for our daughter on piano. Not only is he reliable and communicative, but he is an excellent teacher. He is able to connect with our kid and makes lessons both engaging, fun, structured, and effective. Our daughter has come so far in her lessons with Morgan. We highly recommend him!!
I started taking guitar lessons from Morgan June of 2021. When I started I had a basic grasp of the guitar. After 4 months of lessons with Morgan my playing became exponentially better. He was able to explain how everything works together in a fun and exciting way to where I always looked forward to my next lesson. I would recommend Morgan to anyone no matter what their music skill is!
Morgan has tremendously helped my guitar skills through weekly progress tracking. He is very easy to learn from and is a fun guy to jam with! Overall great instructor.
I have always wanted to learn to play the piano but just never took the time to find a teacher. I tried self study and watching videos but it just wasn’t doing the trick. I’ve been getting lessons from Morgan for a while now and it has been AWESOME! He’s super passionate about music so any questions you ask gets him even more excited to teach! I went from not knowing ANYTHING about playing piano to being able to play a song that I have always wanted to learn to play! Morgan is able to integrate learning foundational piano playing with playing your favorite songs. I would HIGHLY recommend Morgan if you want to learn to play piano!
Great guy, fantastic instructor. Highly recommend.
Morgan has done an outstanding job tutoring our 13 year old this year on the piano! He’s trusting, reliable and consistent with his lessons and philosophies. Our son connects with him personally and also has learned a tremendous amount in a short time! We’re looking forward to him advancing in piano and then moving onto guitar. Morgan is brilliant in both arenas and a pleasure to have in our home. Highly recommended!
He is very kind with my son, and interested on the challenge to teach my son with autism and a very lack atention.
Morgan worked with me to better understand how to work with composers to score films, and he even ended up scoring one of my passion projects. His depth of knowledge is outstanding, and has helped me create stronger connections with professionals in the music industry. If you work with Morgan, whatever level you're at, you won't be disappointed.
