TESTIMONIAL
"Chris has been teaching our 8 year old son drawing for several months now and he absolutely loves it. Chris is fun and patient and really gets into whatever Charlie wants to draw. We have done lots of after school programs but this is the one that Charlie is always the most excited about." `~ J. Pearce, Kingston
"My son is currently taking Skype lessons with Chris. He’s had other teachers that were great before , but Chris has that extra touch and charisma that keeps him practicing and wanting more. Chris is a super likeable and wickedly talented musician. If you or somebody you know is looking to learn or expand your musical knowledge, there’s no need to look anywhere else, you’ve found the place. Mega like!"
