“It has been a real treat to have Jake dig into my dream of playing the blues. He has gently been leading me on the path of finding my own sound. We have been working hard on finding it. Along the way, there have been many stumbling blocks (my own). What I found is that he intuitively and patiently has been coaxing me on my own time frame to transition from form/theory/thought to “finding the sound” within. He has taken me with what I started with to pacing me through learning Freddie King songs, fingering, timing, how to have fun musically, and sometimes just hearing me “download”. ” – James
“Jake is a great teacher. As an adult that has never before played an instrument, Jake was very patient with me. He has taught me a lot considering my lack of experience with musical instruments. I am very surprised at the level of my own skill in the short amount of time that I have been taking lessons. The lessons are also fun and entertaining, which was a real concern for me. I was not interested not having my lessons be a ‘chore.’ I am learning a lot and having fun. I definitely recommend Jake Andrews as a guitar instructor.” – Nichole B.
Jake is an AMAZING guitar player and a very gifted teacher. He is patient and thorough. I would recommend him to anyone looking to start playing guitar or to any advanced players looking to fine tune their skills.” – Arol H.
