The staff at Shore Music Academy is what keeps me coming back. Their enthusiasm for playing instruments continues to fuel my desire to learn. I started taking guitar lessons just a few months ago to build upon the basics I taught myself over the years. Four months of playing with Joe and there is a noticeable difference in my playing, knowledge and dexterity. The time I spend at Shore Music Academy is a huge contributor to my sanity and one of the highlights of my week, every week. You guys rock!

Everything has been excellent. Ed has been taking the appropriate time to teach my daughter guitar. He gives her positive feedback and she is super excited to practice and go to lessons.

Awesomely run organization, it's professional wrap up in group of overall great, friendly, highly trained in their, too! Years ago I attempted learning to play the electric guitar.both my husband and daughter offered to gift me with a headset which headset which I turned down. I come to Shore Music Academy.within like 3 weeks. I was practicing with my electric guitar and Amplified, when my daughter approached me to say, " dad and I were wondering if that was YouTube playing, to find out that it was only me practicing with my electric guitar and amplifier, what my cool guitar teacher had been teaching me, she said both she and her dad were saying wow she sounds really good, and how can she sounds that good with only a few weeks lessons.

I was practicing Colby Caillat"Bubblly" and Black Eye Peas " I got a feeling". George great people person makes you feel really relaxed about onboarding with the school. trustworthy too! Joe, is just as relaxing to be around great contributing factor but his teaching skills and his techniques is a revelation to his skills at his craft! I highly recommend this school!

Though we have only been taking lessons for a little over a month, I have been very impressed with both the coordination and the quality of my daughter's guitar lessons. We look forward to coming every week. I would highly recommend Shore Music Academy!

Shore Music Academy is professionally run, you see the owner in the studio and they are flexible & generous with make up classes. The teachers are terrific; knowledgeable, age appropriate (no matter the age of the child/adult) and friendly.

I cannot say enough about George and his business. From the front desk greeting to the sound proof rooms so I don't break any windows with my one day singing pipes. Faith my singing teacher has made this experience fun. I am 59 years old and I have always wanted to sing in a play. I am soooooo bad and that's OK. I will be able to belt out a tune after a few months. I love SMA. It's never to late to sing.
