"Logan is kind, attentive, and an excellent teacher. I strongly encourage anyone thinking about learning a new discipline to go for it!" -Kiana S.
"In the last few months of taking lessons with Logan, I've learned about how to play the guitar, and had more fun while doing it, than I have in the last 20+ years of trying to learn to play. Each week he brings a new song that fits with what I want to learn to play, with just enough additional technical challenge to keep it fun while also helping me realize I'm making real progress. It's exciting to begin to understand patterns and hear them in songs I'm already familiar with. In working with Logan I can tell he loves the art of teaching as much as he loves playing the guitar. He quickly rephrases how he teaches concepts when he notices I've struggle to understand and seems grateful for when I ask to hear or see something a different way. His passion for playing and for music is contagious."

"My son loves working with Logan. I even see him practice on his own. He likes that he knows the Smoke on the Water riff by heart and I hear him practicing cool sliding sounds on his guitar with a smile on his face. It is very fun to see him grow like this!"
– Marla, Parent of student
"I’ve been playing chess for many years, but lessons with Logan have taken my understanding to a whole new level. He has an incredible ability to break down the most basic principles in a way that finally makes sense, and at the same time, he teaches advanced strategies with the same clarity and confidence. His knowledge of the game—from the fundamentals to the most complex positions—is truly impressive. What I appreciate most is how clearly he explains everything, always patient, always making sure I understand the ideas behind the moves. Working with Logan has made a huge difference in my game, and I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to improve."
