Please read the following reviews of Dan's teaching -- thanks!
Dan has been my guitar teacher for three years and I couldn't have been happier with my choice. Over this time I have learned over fifty songs including the vocals. Dan exerts no pressure and allows me to proceed at my own pace creating short cuts for difficult chords when necessary particularly during the first year. He has an uncanny ability to orchestrate song videos into easy to understand chords, strum and pic sequences.
Dan and I have become good friends - he even played at my daughter's wedding!
Dan is a fantastic and passionate teacher. I have learned more (as a advanced beginner) in the past eight months than all the online and offline lessons I have previously taken. He knows his students and crafts his lessons around their ability and willingness. A great teacher.
Ever since I could remember, I wanted to learn how to play the guitar. For some reason, I was intimidated by the idea and never pursued it; that is,until I found Dan Blum and ALL COUNTY GUITAR at 38 years old. I've never looked back. Now, almost 5 years later, alongside what I believe to be the best in the business, I am playing songs I love with confidence. My lessons are so much fun and Dan has proven time after time that his system works. Again, the best in the industry and an even better friend.
Dan is a wonderful guitar teacher who works with his students on a one-on-one basis, and strives to make sure that they both understand what they're playing and how to achieve it. I also like the fact that he lets the students choose which songs they want to learn, so they're not playing songs that they have no interest in.
My son has been taking guitar lessons with Dan for the past two years. Not only is Dan an amazing musician, he is the kindest, most patient teacher, which is why my son's guitar lesson has become the highlight of his week! We look forward to many years of lessons.
