I have been a student with Matt for over 10 years now. Started out as a complete beginner. Matt has taught me bass guitar, so I was able to play in our worship band at church, and now for the last several years we have focused on acoustic six string guitar. I've come far enough along that I play at jams and perform solo at open mics.
I'm mostly interested in Singer-Songwriter and Americana styles of music. Matt has been a great teacher for whatever songs and genres of music I want to play. This last year we worked on Travis picking to compliment my other rhythm guitar playing. I'm sure he can help anyone learn whatever style of songs they want to learn.
Matt is both passionate about playing guitar and keeps the lessons fun and encouraging. I plan to take lessons from Matt for many more years. I look forward to every lesson.

Matt is a wonderful instructor. He is patient and easy to get along with. His lessons are catered specifically to each individual student and he always sends a lesson follow up. I find this helpful for my individual practice. Matt is a well-versed and talented musician. I highly recommend him for lessons.

Over the four years I’ve taken lessons from Matt, we’ve played mostly rock and blues songs. When I told Matt I wanted to explore more music theory, we spent about a year concentrating on jazz standards as we reviewed theory. My playing has greatly improved since I started with Matt and I would highly recommend him to other students, regardless of current skill level.

Excellent music teacher! Matt O' Brien is very passionate about music and is a great resource for anyone looking to improve their guitar or bass skills. He is able to keep students like me engaged and will help you in all areas of the instrument. He's also a big metal fan which is great for those who are interested in learning how to be able to play in the genre!

I have been taking guitar lessons from Matt for almost 2 years now and would recommend him to anyone looking to learn or improve on the instrument. I had attempted to self teach myself several times over the past 20 years and every time I hit a wall. This time around, as I felt that wall coming, I started looking for a teacher. I chose Matt due to the abundance of good reviews he has and they're all spot on. Matt's a fantastic teacher and has helped me break through that wall that I've encountered every other time I've attempted to learn. He tailors the lessons towards what I'm interested in, encourages me to learn from other sources and helps me understand them. He's also available to ask questions whenever needed. He's very easy going, takes things at your pace and knows what he's talking about. I plan on continuing with him for the foreseeable future!

Took lessons with Matt for 5 years and he made me the guitarist I am today! I highly recommend him as a teacher

Matt is an incredible teacher. I was getting nowhere after 2 years of trying to learn from Youtube videos. I started out with just 30 minutes per week and it was so good that I'm now at 1.5 hours per week with him. My guitar playing is skyrocketing and it's such a blast! Highly recommend!

Matt is a phenomenal guitar teacher! I’ve been taking lessons from him for about three years now. He has the formal education and the passion necessary to be a truly effective instructor. After every lesson, he e-mails me a summary of what I need to work on. He makes learning guitar fun but also holds me accountable. And he teaches all ages. Lessons with Matt are the highlight of my week!

When you see a 5.0 star Google rating with a lot of reviews, you expect a great experience. I never foresaw running into an excellent experience.
My first comment before even committing to lessons with Matt was my feeling that guitar was a very daunting instrument to learn and was not sure I would succeed. Graciously, but with confidence Matt eased my concerns while learning about me, my interests, and what my goals were learning guitar. I felt comfortable with the flexibility of lesson packages, online or in person, and his willingness to learn at my pace.
What happened over my first three lessons of never playing guitar is inconceivable. I have learned all major chords, proper techniques, and I am already playing chord progressions of my favorite songs! Maybe I ended up learning at his pace without me knowing it.
If you are looking for someone to just give you a book and tell you how to play, have fun picking up a new hobby. If you are looking for a mentor in the realm of guitar with your best interest in mind, play guitar along with you, and make it fun to enjoy playing the guitar, well search no further.
