Meet The Team

My daughter is loving her learning and is having a blast. Paul, her instructor, is extremely patient and kind with her. I am really impressed with the level of professionalism and skills that this company has. They are accommodating when a change needs to happen. Throughout the pandemic they have maintained communication with us and ensured that our online lessons are smooth and supporting all our needs! I am so happy I found Go Guitar, if you're looking for a fabulous company to work with, look no further!

10 out of 10. Francis has been terrific. A good mix of practical stuff and theory. I've been noodling around with the guitar for 50+ years and I pick up something new and useful every week. Highly recommend.

We were looking for lessons for our son who was starting from scratch on guitar. We started with in-person lessons which had to switch to virtual during the pandemic. We can't say enough about both the teacher (Sean) and the owner (Francis). Sean has helped our son with the basics of guitar with a focus on music he likes (Red Hot Chili Peppers!). Francis is excellent with communication, super responsive and no surprises. Their policies are fair, open and honest, and the value for money is really great. Anyone looking to sign up for guitar lessons, Go Guitar is a tremendous option.

My son is in his third year of lessons and my other two recently started. Go Guitar Lessons is amazing with our kids and they look forward to their teacher's visit every week!! One of the best parts is that they come to you! Makes busy lives a little less busy and they are happy since they don't have to wait around for their siblings to finish.
