Tim Boaté - Guitar Teacher & Music Producer

My experience with Tim Boate's guitar lessons has been absolutely fantastic. Not only is he a professional and organized instructor, but he also tailors his lesson plans to my interests and abilities. He strikes an ideal balance between teaching music theory and introducing me to new skills through song learning, which is perfect for me. I've been taking lessons from him for almost 7 months, and my progress has far exceeded my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend Tim for his superb value and expertise in guitar instruction!

He has remarkable creativity and knowledge. The recording session was excellent, and his contribution was highly beneficial.

With zero experience in guitar, Tim made it easy for me to grasp the basics and establish my journey.

I was introduced to Tim by my husband, who had seen his post on CrackerJack for guitar lessons. He always came home from his lessons buzzing with excitement, inspired by Tim's teachings. He encouraged me to attend one of his lessons, and upon doing so, I was impressed by Tim's impressive skills and welcoming demeanor, as well as the recording equipment in his studio. As I had aspirations to create a children's storytelling and music album, Tim seemed like the perfect choice for collaborating. Throughout the recordings, Tim brought his equipment to various locations where I performed. He was fully equipped with all the necessary tools and more. Since the recordings included spoken word and music, Tim had to ensure the two seamlessly merged together, which he did with remarkable professionalism. His keen attention to detail, volume, texture, timing, and editing are all indicative of his exceptional expertise and artistic acumen. Upon completing the project, Tim also assisted in the distribution of the album on digital platforms, an area I was unfamiliar with. Additionally, he offered his support in marketing the album through social media, showcasing his endless knowledge of the music industry. By attending my husband's guitar lesson, I discovered that Tim is not just a regular guitar teacher, but a multifaceted musician offering immense value to recording artists. He is incredibly musical, creative, hardworking, focused, and effortlessly relaxed. I have subsequently worked with him on multiple album projects, and I firmly believe he is a priceless resource in Baltimore.

For a year now, I have been receiving lessons from Tim - a highly versatile musician who excels in all genres and possesses an innate talent for playing the guitar. His lesson plans are meticulously crafted to suit each student's unique preferences and interests, with a strong emphasis on the fundamentals of music theory taught in an easily digestible manner. Additionally, his services offer excellent value and he is always highly responsive.
