Kelly has a great teaching style and it's really easy to learn from him. Lately he's taught me a bunch of music theory and how to apply it to songs I'm learning from cd's. His approach can save you lots of time and frustration.

Over the years I've really grown as a guitarist.  Kelly has helped me by emphasizing a balance between fun and hard work.  I've learned tons of songs but also the basics and music theory.  I've gotten the level now where I can improvise solos and just jam.  These are definitely the most productive lessons I've ever had.

Kelly taught me chords right away and he teaches you to rock and roll.  I'm learning a lot now.  He's got a lot of cool pictures in his studio and I like his guitar with Wacky stickers on it.  He plays football with me sometimes at the end of my lesson if there is time.

You don't have to have any prior music experience to take lessons from Kelly.  I've learned all my scales, chords, music theory and even some piano since I started lessons.  I've also learned to improvise solos over chord progressions.  The next thing is that Kelly tailors your lessons to whatever direction you want to go.  Kelly also has a band which helps him to relate to the situations I face in my band.
