Virtual lessons with Johnny have exceeded my expectations. I can tell he spends time outside of our lessons to think about ways to help me learn. He lays out a plan when we start each lesson and afterward provides a summary of what we worked on along with helpful practice materials.

Johnny taught my 12 year old son how to play the drums. We sought him out because his drum skills are amazing and we knew he had started at a young age. He worked really well with Matt and taught him not only valuable skills but also shared his genuine love of music. Johnny’s gentle nature and easy going personality suit him well in his role of teaching others what he loves.

Other than being close friends with Johnny for a long time, he’s been an inspiration to perform and work with as he has such an attention to detail. He’s quite possibly the most well-rounded musician I know.
