Portland Guitar Academy
Who are PGA students? Our students are technically minded adults and youth who want a training program that they can follow for several years that will allow them to reach their specific goals. Some students are total beginners looking for an efficient path, some are working towards college auditions, some are working musicians looking to advance their skillset. This is a school for students who really want to advance their musicianship and guitar playing. If this sounds like you, you're probably a great fit for PGA.

Sentiment Analysis
The great thing about Jesse is how much attention he pays to where your skills are, and he can discern where you are having trouble, and then give you the key to breaking through that barrier, because he remembers what it's like to learn.
I am very impressed that this school has a well articulated philosophy and method to teaching, playing and understanding music, and to music itself.
I came in looking to improve my music theory knowledge as well as my technical abilities, so that I could get away from simple chord progressions and a limited ability to play tabs.
Previous guitar lessons I'd taken really didn't do more than kind of teach me to strum along with songs to songs I liked.
I took private guitar lessons at Portland Guitar Academy with Jesse, and have had the most pleasant experience.
The supplemental materials they provide are a big help and the weekly check-ins hallow me to ask questions and get tips on being more effective in my weekly practicing.
Jesse teaches students with efficient and positive way, and I always enjoy the lessons with Jesse.
I also think its worth noting that the online component of the lessons makes it harder to make excuses about traveling/being busy.
I am classically trained violinist and struggled to find a guitar teacher who could speak to me in a way that made sense to my classical background.
I can’t recommend him enough if you are looking to learn the guitar and learn the right way!!
