Reviews
“When my son told me he wanted to start taking guitar lessons, I had no idea where to go. I looked up local guitar lessons and Dan Jost’s name came up. Did a little research and after reading the reviews, I decided to give Dan a call. My son was not going to be your typical music student. He is hearing impaired so I knew whoever he was going to use was going to need to work a little harder with him. After my conversation with Dan, I knew that this would be an excellent fit. Not only is he extremely talented, but he is caring, patient, professional and inspiring. My son left his lessons with a huge smile on his face. He loved Dan. His energy and encouragement gave my son the confidence he needed being somewhat impaired. Dan’s passion for music and his devotion to his students is unparalleled. I highly recommend Dan if you are looking for a remarkable guitar teacher.” – Dori L. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“My 16 year old son Frankie has been taking guitar lessons from Dan for almost 6 months now – and he loves every minute of it. Frankie has found a friend and mentor in Dan and has learned so much. My son had no prior experience and Dan was able to teach him to read music and play complete songs. Frankie has a great deal of respect for Dan and his talent. I would highly recommend Dan to anyone considering taking lessons!” -Kathy M. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“I have been taking lessons for a few months now, and I am very happy with the direction Dan has taken me. He is an encyclopedia of tips, tricks, and music theory. Dan is available outside of lesson hours for any questions you may have, and is willing to work with you. I would highly recommend taking lessons with Dan, as he is an ideal professional.”
– David B. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“Dan is great. I learned more in my first day then I learned in a month with my former vocal coach. Dan has helped me gain more confidence in my singing and he really helps you find your true voice. His way of teaching and connecting with his students is amazing!! He is passionate about music and helping his students become successful musicians. If I could give him 10 stars I would.” – Isobela C. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“I’ve been taking voice lessons from Dan for about 3 months now. As a member of a band my vocals were weak and untrained. I didn’t have a clue how voice worked, or my range. I didn’t understand anything about the mechanics of the voice or the difference of the singing voice to speaking. I knew nothing of the difference of diction from speaking and singing. Dan is working with me in all these things and more. My vocal range and power is increasing with less effort and no strain to my vocal cords. I’m working on background (harmony) and lead vocals. For me Dan is what I was looking for, his is modern approach that works with what I do pop rock.” – Steve D. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“My teenage son has been working with Dan on the electric guitar for about 4 months and the progress we’ve seen and heard has been amazing. He’s having a great time, really looks forward to every lesson and practices the things Dan instructs him to at home every week. He’s also been flexible with our schedule when we’ve needed to be. We and our son would highly recommend Dan to anyone.” – Gary A. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“I have been taking voice lessons with Dan since spring of 2019. Dan is a terrific instructor who has really helped me bring out abilities I didn’t know I had. He has done a great job at guiding me through the specifics of technique as well as articulation. He’s very honest and constructive. I recommend Dan for any guitarist or vocalist looking to take their skills to the next level.” – Matt S. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Dan gives my 15 yo son guitar lessons. He is professional, courteous and kind. Great teacher! He really understands how to interact with my teenager and motivate him. I can’t say enough good things about the experience as it is truly amazing! – Chris R. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Dan’s performing experience makes the skills he teaches practical. He has also been very flexible to my work schedule. Dan makes each lesson fun and I always leave with skills I can implement into my playing and singing right away.” – Dylan P. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“Dan is an excellent guitar teacher! He listened to what my goals were and worked out a custom lesson plan. I drastically improve each week I go, and I feel more confident as a guitarist from when I first started. I can’t wait until the next lesson!” – Rich B. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“I started taking guitar lessons with Dan about two months ago. With no experience prior to these lessons, Dan has made it easy and fun to start a somewhat arduous task of learning an instrument. He finds the mistakes or trouble I’m having easily and is able to fix it on the spot. He is also willing to work with the kind of music I want to play vs. the kind of music a beginner should be playing. I picked my first song to learn this week. Highly recommend Dan for any level of guitar instruction.” – Carly C. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
