I've been casually playing guitar for a few years and came to Keith to improve my technique and become an overall better player. He called me before my first lesson to make sure he understood my goals

Julie (Guitar lessons with Keith D.)

Great! Very patient and keeps my daughter motivated.

Alexa (Guitar lessons with Keith D.)

I really love his guitar lesson. I am a beginner and needed professional's help to improve and Keith taught me step by step from the basic and I was able to understand a guitar better and enjoyed play

My 10 year old son has no musical knowledge what-so-ever. We wanted him to have some basics, and he was curious about the guitar. Sadly our family isn't musical and it's hard to know where to start. W

I Love Music

Cory J.

By Cory J.-New York Guitar Teacher

Each of us is born with the capacity for unlimited imagination. We all want something we can always turn to for joy, wisdom, and comfort. We all want something to share with others and also have to ourselves that is an endless source of creativity and fun. For me and countless others, music is the purest incarnation of these human attributes and desires. A love of music is an extremely powerful connection to one’s self and the world. Music helps us understand, it makes us feel, it lets us express ourselves, and last but not least, it’s extremely fun!

We become happier and more well rounded people through exposure to music alone, but having the ability to play music is one of the best things there is. Many have aspirations to leave an unmistakable imprint on the world with their music, and influence present and future generations with their expressive beauty. Many people want to be able to sit down at the end of a long day and play their favorite songs. Many people just want a fun hobby. I love teaching music and the guitar in New York. As a guitar teacher, helping people achieve specific musical goals and watching their satisfaction at their progress is a very rewarding experience. However, my favorite aspect of teaching is guiding people along on their musical journeys; watching them grow, as well as understand and enjoy what they are beginning or continuing to create.

I love to see my students come to me each week with a renewed love of music. Whether you have never touched an instrument before or have been playing for many years, a love of music always grows and improves you. It is rarely too early and never too late to start playing and you will be glad you have, no matter where your playing takes you.
