“My daughter’s experience has been phenomenal at Reading School of Guitar. She describes it as “cool” which is a huge compliment coming from a 13, almost 14 year old. She always wants to attend classes and says the group plays fun games to help them learn new skills. In Rock Lab Jon listens to what the individuals in the group are interested in, song/genre-wise, to plan which songs they will learn, and her experiences on stage have given her more confidence and opportunities to play the guitar she would have otherwise never had! As parents we are very pleased with our daughter’s experience at Reading School of Guitar and how much she has learned in a short amount of time!”

Jon, the instructor, is a phenomenal communicator, making each class enjoyable and engaging for her. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking to learn guitar in a supportive and nurturing environment!”

Despite not knowing much when I first joined, my confidence and improvement in my guitar skills have made his classes very worthwhile!”

“My teenage son has been taking guitar lessons with Jon at RSG since August 2023, and it has been such a wonderful experience and creative outlet for him. From consultation to signing up for classes, Jon has been so easy to work with and cares about his craft and students. Every week, my son looks forward to class and I love listening to him practice. Jon is supportive and patient and the diverse music selection is exceptional exposure for students of all ages. We look forward to continuing classes and watching my son's passion for music and guitar grow.”
