Aaron Doerr, Fellow Musician

In a word, I have to say Aaron is awesome! I've "played at" guitar since I was a teenager (early 70s), but never seriously pursued improving my skills. To encourage growth beyond a limited repertoire, my wife gave me 3 months of guitar lessons from Aaron for Christmas (2014). I was able to start with a good knowledge of open and Barre chords, but Aaron very quickly took me to new levels with a deeper knowledge of the fretboard, reading/understanding tabs, Travis picking, lead guitar and theory, all backed up with disciplined drills. In less than 6 months, Aaron has taken me to levels and skills I never thought I could accomplish. He hosts jam sessions and open mike nights where his students can play together (and overcome stage fright). Online notes from each lesson are provided so students can review "homework", link to backing tracks or videos. This has been a very helpful addition to the 1-hour lessons. He also selflessly recommends other instruction venues (e.g. Folk School) to round out skill sets. Very highly recommended!
