Willis Joaquin

"Joaquin is an outstanding and extremely talented guitar teacher and player! He has helped me improve my skills and technique in four short years! Also, he makes the lessons enjoyable with his funny personality but at the same time stays focused on teaching. He is super patient and encouraging and always wants his students to succeed!! Since I was in high school, I had a very busy schedule but Jouaqin worked around that. Very flexible with time! I would definitely recommend Joaquin to anyone who has a passion for music and is searching for a guitar teacher!! Thanks Joaquin!"

"Joaquin is an awesome guitar teacher, a great person, and an even better friend! I started taking lessons with him my freshman year of high school with no experience at all. I continued lessons all the way through high school (4+ years!) and was amazed at how quickly I developed skills. Joaquin is very patient and everything you could ask for in an instructor, always encouraging me to improve and fine-tune my skills. I couldn’t recommend him enough. If you are searching for a guitar teacher who is not only fun, but extremely talented and versatile with a knack for teaching- look no further. Joaquin is the man!"

"Joaquin is an excellent guitar instructor and I highly recommend him! He taught my son the guitar from middle to high school, and my son has grown leaps and bounds on the guitar, from learning scales to reading music to improvisation, among others. Along with Joaquin's excellent teaching ability, Joaquin is a great person who really cares for his students."

"After taking lessons for a year and a half from Joaquin before leaving for college, he is undoubtedly the best music instructor I’ve ever had. Joaquin is an accomplished musician, wonderful conversationalist, inspiring teacher, and just a good guy. I have probably learned as much talking to Joaquin during our lessons as I have playing the guitar with him. Without him, I probably would not be motivated to practice and improve as much as I have. I would recommend Joaquin to anyone, regardless of skill level. Awesome teacher and insightful man."

"My son has been a student of Joaquin Willis for almost seven years and I am very proud of the progress he made learning classical guitar. Joaquin is an amazing guitar teacher and he showed lots of patience, gave heartfelt encouragement and helped my son learn proper classical guitar techniques. Joaquin also held recitals which gave my son experience in playing in front of people which I considered invaluable for his training. I fully recommend Joaquin to those serious about learning guitar, whether classical or contemporary."
