Lessons with Jake have been a fantastic experience for my son, Oliver. I feel so fortunate to have found Jake and The Music Garden. Oliver was already 13 when he decided he wanted to take piano lessons, and Jake was able to hook him and keep him interested, despite Oliver’s ever-shifting interests and somewhat challenged ability to focus. He kept his time with Oliver fun and inspired Oliver to learn more about music theory and even music production. Jake has a bunch of cool instruments in his studio and was willing to let Oliver experiment with a few and has always encouraged Oliver to try new things, while also fostering continued commitment to piano. The Music Garden itself is in Jake’s home- a lovely house in the Palolo Valley - it’s like taking lessons in a tree-house. And as an added extra bonus, he has a pet bunny. If you have been lucky enough to find Jake and The Music Garden, you and/or your child is sure to have a truly special musical journey.

Musicians who are actually good teachers are hard to find. But Jake possesses both qualities of being a good musician and a teacher. It became clear to me very quickly from the first class that he was an experienced instructor for all levels. Just how he communicated the material to an absolute novice was impressive; he knew how to deconstruct the subject that was easily understandable. I started looking for a music teacher when my daughter received a used guitar as a birthday gift, and was introduced to Jake through my neighbor. I am very pleased that my daughter is being exposed to music from such a young age and through an excellent teacher. We hope to continue learning from Jake as long as possible.

Jake was such a great teacher. He was able to get me more proficient on guitar and ukulele. He breaks it down so your able to learn quickly and it ended up being a lot of fun! Highly recommend:)
