By visiting his FindaGuitarTeacher.com guitar teacher page, you’ll find out that John’s willingness to put himself in his students’ shoes in order to help them fulfill their musical goals is exemplified by what he says:
“I have two golden rules for teaching. First is to the furthest extent possible, I use music YOU like. I can teach you all you need to know by playing whatever music you love the most. The main thing is to get you playing and having fun. Second I am all about understanding and practical use. I will never teach you a scale or a chord etc, without telling you what it is good for and how to use it. I only use top of the line boutique amps, effects and guitars.”
You’ll also notice that his teaching is motivated by the personal nature of each student’s creative journey: “Every student is different so every lesson is different. I start with figuring out where the student is at playing-wise and then we take it from there.”
John is offering beginner, intermediate, advanced, and pro guitar lessons in his studio or in students’ homes, primarily in the west side/beach cities and the San Fernando Valley.

The last thing in the world you want is a guitar teacher who makes you feel he or she has better things to do than teach you guitar and that you’re merely a distraction from what they feel they really should be doing.
On his FindaGuitarTeacher profile, Jon Reed, who is giving guitar lessons in the Birmingham, Alabama area, quickly dispels any concerns you may have about such matters.
Birmingham Guitar Teacher Jon Reed Applies Organic Approach To Guitar Lessons
Listen to what Jon says about his passion for guitar teaching: “I feel fortunate to do something for a living that I truly enjoy: teaching people how to play guitar and music the way they always imagined possible. I will work with any student of any level of experience who is willing to make a serious commitment to learning guitar. I explore all genres of music with my students.”
Not only is Jon passionate about his music and his guitar teaching, he clearly demonstrates his desire to relate to his students on a personal level by listening to what they have in mind for themselves and organically developing guitar lessons that responding to their goals. Check out what he says about that:
“The primary guide to how I shape guitar lessons is the students’ musical goals and favorite artists and songs. I find it helps to approach each student as a complete person and not just a guitar student. This way, students tend to feel more comfortable discussing and working towards their goals. I teach students how to learn music organically, spontaneously and creatively, more by ear than by notation.”

It seems like Todd has much to teach, that he does it in a way that places the emphasis on inspiring the spirit of the music within each of his students, and that anyone who works with him can’t help but progress to a point of full expression and musicianship – the very quality that any guitarist, of any level, should be seeking,
