Jim Morgan - Music Lessons

"Jim is a great teacher. I take banjo from him and it's the first time I've truly enjoyed learning a new instrument. He's always encouraging and helps me understand the versatility of different things I learn and how to apply them. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to take lessons"

"I have been taking lessons from Jim for the past four months Jim is very knowledgeable when it comes to the bass he is very professional. He has a Lotta patience and making sure that you comprehend what he’s teaching. He doesn’t mind going over things as many times until you get it. I’m very happy. I walked into the picking parlor. Also, this is my first time ever picking up an instrument to play."

"Jim Morgan is an excellent guitar instructor. I've been taking lessons from him since January. As an older student who is just learning how to play the guitar at age 58, he is very patient and encouraging. I can see my technique improving each week and I am enjoying playing the guitar!"

"I have been taking mandolin lessons from Jim for four months (having never taken professional music lesson previously) and he has me already playing complete songs (Cripple Creek)! I actually performed in a public recital last month (my first) and didn't do too bad of a job :-) What keeps me coming back is that he makes these lessons a 'safe space' to make mistakes - and I certainly make so many. In this day and age of severe judgement at every turn, I know that every week when I go in and play, after practicing all week, he knows that I have given it my best shot. He encourages me to keep at it and shows me things to correct and keep working at it. You are never too old to learn - and I so enjoy learning to play music. So if you are looking for an instructor for yourself or your child, Jim is incredible! And he can play anything with strings :-)"

"Learning the mandolin with Jim has been a wonderful experience! I played trumpet as a kid, but 20 years later with no instrument experience, I felt intimidated to try something new. Jim has given me the confidence to learn an instrument as an adult, with a family, full-time job, and not a lot of spare time. He works with my busy schedule and encourages me to keep pressing forward. He's stretched me so much and I've grown in my confidence, and just my enjoyment of the instrument. Trust Jim on your music journey, no matter your experience level!"
