About Me:
Learning to play guitar is a challenge, but with lessons it becomes a rewarding lifelong enjoyment. I am a Berklee College of Music graduate who has been playing for 23 years and teaching private lessons for 11 years. I teach styles including Rock, Classical, Jazz, Country and Metal. The lessons will help you learn to play guitar by using chord diagrams, theory, charts, examples and exercises, as well as anything you hear on the radio and want to learn.
Ages:
Elementary School, Pre-teen, Teenage, Adult

Reviewer: DIANE - MELROSE, MA
Instrument: Guitar
I took lessons with Frankie this year, and due to the economy had to stop, and I was bummed. I love his approach to starting you out right from the notes and getting you to understand the guitar in all aspects. He has a gentle soul, which helps when you are learning and keep making mistakes! I would highly recommend Frankie for anyone looking to learn or better their playing!
