MusicMatchr has been a wonderful experience in my guitar learning journey. Taylor at MusicMatchr is always responsive to questions and very articulate in explanation of music theory and “how to’s” for chord progressions. His explanations are also are able to make learning how to play guitar a very enjoyable experience. If you love music like I do and would like to learn how to play guitar, you should check out MusicMatchr.
Structured learning path,practice with the jamtrack and the possibility to participate in live group coachings. A great experience and motivation
I like how Taylor teaches. It clear and concise, he's not just teaching chords and strum patterns, but how guitar works when you read sheet music, which i find easier, than beat count's and strum patterns. Also with his website it allows you to move along at your own pace, and/or back up if needed. I like his chord change fundamentals, and hadn't incorporated a metronome before starting but I see the benefit, and it works. I would recommend Taylor if someone I knew was looking for a teacher.
Taylor is by far the best online guitar and music theory instructor I have used. He has the perfect demeanor for all levels of experience, from beginner to experienced players. His patience when going over basic principles or theory makes even more experienced players want to listen and go back and work on them. He encourages group interaction and tries his best to answer all questions posed during a lesson without detracting from the limited instructional time we have. He also encourages us all to try new techniques even if they are out of our comfort zone. As a result, I have had more progress on my guitar journey than I ever expected. Taylor is available online and keeps up with the FB page by interjecting when needed to clarify either a technique or theory question posed to the group. He has always promptly answered any question I had via email and I can tell he really cares how we are doing and wants to help in whatever way he can. He Rocks!
The course really helped my playing. I was stuck not seeming to be getting faster and the lessons worked
Working with Taylor has been an awesome experience and I highly recommend his lessons. He is highly engaging and has a very approachable attitude. Any question I’ve had, he has been available to answer me quickly. His building blocks are challenging but they build in each other and you can see yourself improve.
I’ve tried several guitar courses and have not been able to stick with them - until this one. The lessons move quickly so they’re not boring, and I was able to see progress which kept me interested. Also, there is a weekly online session with the instructor where we learn new songs and other extra cool stuff that keeps it fun! I highly recommend this course!
Taylor makes beginning guitar so accessible! I signed up for the guitar building blocks because I knew I needed some structure and someone to guide me through various techniques as I started learning guitar. What I got was so much more than I expected. The play along tracks at different speeds are super helpful, and a great compliment to the written materials. What has impressed me the most is the access that I got to Taylor’s weekly online classes. It’s like a free group guitar lesson every week, and weeks that you can’t make it there’s always a video replay. They’re interactive and a lot of fun and a seriously great value!
Taylor Barnett skills as an instructor are excellent. He explains what he is teaching in simple straight forward way that is easily comprehended and at the same time makes it interesting. He works hard to keep you enthusiasm up by providing weekly live classes and one on one instruction. I don't think there is a better online or live instructor.
I just started the lessons and they are really great, but what I really love are the live classes on Saturday. A lot of it is over my head, but I always get some new tip or information.
Taylor is great at breaking down each lesson in a fun and informative way. The building blocks are logical and motivating.
Let's start with I always wanted to play a guitar always thought it was too hard. Found Taylor's class online and wow what a difference I can now play a guitar and it wasn't that hard. Taylor really cares about his student and he takes the time to teach even if you need one-on-one what a great class
I have just started (a few weeks in the program) but I can tell you the difference between this and other guitar instruction programs is the personal touch Taylor gives his program. It not only works but Taylor is there to help you and guide you. I am so thankful for his professionalism and willingness to share his talent!
Definitely one of the best sites for learning Guitar! The program focuses on building muscle memory while going through the building blocks. You can move at your own pace and the lessons are very well structured. In addition, Taylor has a live class every Saturday that is awesome. In the live sessions we cover more music theory and I learn something every time. If you really want to learn how to play the guitar, this is the place to go.
Taylor is an awesome instructor. He is clear, patient, and always positive in his approach. I have taken lessons, online courses, and tried on my own to learn guitar and his program is the first that keeps me engaged and enthusiastic!
Great course Very well Structured and Interactive Recommend it to anyone trying to speed up their chord changes
I liked that I could go at my own pace , really enjoying the lessons thanks
Taylor really breaks down the basics of guitar and makes it very understandable to the beginner and then keeps building it up as you move on and advance. Very clear instructions.
I am an older man who struggled for years to learn the guitar. Using Taylor’s method I have finally made real progress. It is rewarding and fun.
Taylor really breaks the whole process down with learning from a VERY basic standpoint and working your way through the various guitar playing techniques (Strumming, picking, barre chords, etc.). He provides a lot of resources to the student and really helps you along the way with your learning.
