My areas of expertise include guitar/bass and 5-string banjo, with experience performing on prominent festival stages and the radio. My teaching approach involves incorporating music that excites the student and adjusting the style to fit individual learning needs. Additionally, I utilize my knowledge of the science of learning to maximize skill retention.

In January, I began taking lessons with Bo. Right from the first lesson, he was able to gauge my musical comprehension and challenge me accordingly. Bo has consistently motivated me to improve my weaker areas of understanding, such as ear training and pattern replication. He is extremely meticulous and emphasizes on teaching the correct techniques while guiding me away from bad habits, ensuring long-term development of my skills. Every week, I eagerly await my lessons with Bo, and I am confident that I have found the perfect teacher.

With Bo as my instructor, his charisma emits during each lesson, and he delivers direct yet pleasing instructions. Being taught by him feels like receiving personalized attention from my favorite childhood teacher. I admire how he makes complex instructions easy to follow, provides helpful intermittent corrections, and encourages me to build my confidence and abilities. Discovering Bo as an instructor has me thrilled to grow and develop as a musician under his guidance.

when I was struggling to learn the basics, and he was always willing to explain something again if I didn't quite get it the first time. His teaching style is engaging and he's always full of enthusiasm, which made learning the banjo a really enjoyable experience. Overall, if you're looking for a banjo teacher who is both skilled and approachable, No is definitely the one to go for.

Up until now, collaborating with Bo has been extremely beneficial. Despite being a beginner, Banjo is the only instrument I have ever picked up. Bo customizes his teaching approach to my present level and my aspirations for the future, even though we may have diverse musical preferences. However, Bo's willingness to integrate my interests while also providing me with guidance on what I need to know moving forward demonstrates his expertise without any difficulty. His passion for music resonates in his efforts.
