To put it in simple words: Godly teacher To go deeper: I started lessons with Jared in 2021. After a year of playing, I felt pretty confident but limited. I hit a plateau and couldn't better my playing, or increase my speed. I couldn't solo at all, I had no music theory, and my technique was terrible. I booked lessons with Jared, and on the first day he started to correct my technique as point out my mistakes and how to correct them. He didn't throw difficult topics or theory at me, but built my skill and knowledge slowly. Jared has always went into depth and always checked for understanding. He has never been condescending and has always been kind. He's always made our lessons fun, I've always enjoyed them. If you are looking to get lessons, Jared is an amazing choice, and you will definitely get your money's worth.
I've had 5 lessons with Jared so far and had to get more! I have been learning a lot while also having fun!
My son was very excited for his first lesson. Good instructor.
