Kit is still my bass teacher so I'm required to give him 5 stars in case he reads this, or risk losing my coveted Tuesday night slot ;)
j/k - Actually, the reason I'm writing this and still going to him once a week after 9 months is because he is an awesome teacher! In addition to be being a gifted professional musician, he's passionate about teaching people how to play, make, and listen to music. He's a true artist who can listen to any song once and pick up a guitar or bass and play it back and then teach you how to play it, all the concepts used, what makes it good, bad, mediocre, etc. Kit is extremely knowledgeable about music, music history, and theory. He will teach you the building blocks you need to compose your own music and he won't let you pick up or keep bad playing habits. P.S. Be prepared to laugh - a LOT! -

Kit is an amazing teacher and musician! Not many artists are both talented in what they do and able to teach it well. I am a true true true beginner with guitar and Kit is always patient and a great communicator. Plus, he has a great sense of humor which is always helpful when you are learning something new!!!

Kit's the best. He really loves teaching, he really knows music, and I would have given up playing long ago if I didn't accidentally find him as an instructor.

Can't say enough about Kit as a teacher. He's clearly an accomplished player and gigs regularly in town. He can explain the intricacies of chord progressions, their history, why stuff sounds good together, on and on and on. I've been studying with Kit for 2 years now and one of the things that's truly amazing is his continued enthusiasm for teaching and his students - no matter what level. I HIGHLY recommend Kit - whether you a just picking guitar up or an accomplished player who is looking to take things to the next level. Kit can help you!

I have been taking bass guitar lessons from Kit for about 3 years. He has a real gift for teaching. Tremendous patience and always encouraging me. He keeps the lessons very interesting by mixing music basics with pieces that I want to learn.
Kit has always been accommodating with scheduling, and always checks to make sure that I'm getting what I need / want from my lessons. He is an extremely talented musician whose passion for music is infectious. I highly recommend Kit and look forward to many more hours of lessons with him.1 Previous Review: Show all »

Kit is awesome. He can teach anyone to play or to improve upon their current ability regardless of innate musical inclination. A gifted teacher.

Kit is a really fabulous teacher! My son went to him for electric guitar lessons when he was 11 yrs old. His previous teacher was a dud with a prescribed format. Kit let my son chose the songs he wanted to learn. Also, he is very patient, funny and super enthusiastic, which is infectious. My son thought he was totally cool, as he didn't act like a typical teacher at all, yet was definitely in charge. The only reason we stopped was that school work got too heavy. He hopes to return to Kit. I want to take guitar lessons from him too, one day when I have time!

Great teacher. Technically and stylistically very good as a player and good at imparting the knowledge. Uses a bunch of good drills, some of his own devising to help improve students technique and is a great listener
