Sarah is loving her classes with Eric. She loves that he talks to her like a person and not a child. She’s 11, and pretty mature for her age. It’s just challenging enough to make it really interesting, but not so much that it frustrates her. At her previous guitar class it was too easy and repetitive. Plus with the one on one atmosphere between teacher and student she’s actually learning more in these 30 minute long classes than she did in an hour long class that she shared with a bunch of other kids. As her mom, I love that I get to sit in on her classes and see how she’s progressing.

I vacationed in Hawaii this year and fell in love with the Ukulele and bought one as a souvenir. When i returned, i reached out to Guitar Center, Web sites, lesson.com etc looking for and interviewing a qualified teacher who played and could teach this instrument. Eric is a big fan of the uku and actually owns a few of them and has been a fantastic teacher, especially in finger style playing with his classical guitar background. I would recommend him highly for anyone who really wants to learn to play this wonderful instrument.

Erik works really well with my 12 year old son. He gets my son excited about music and keeps the lesson interesting. I like that Erik records some of the music as time passes so we can hear the progress. Erik treats both my son and I like family and I highly recommend him!

Mr. Kahn has been teaching my son for almost 3 years now. We have tried other music schools closer to home but we were not impressed. We just had to go back with Music Kahncepts, even if we have to drive a little farther. He is just the best teacher around period.
