“Our daughter has been taking weekly guitar lessons from Charlie for a few years and we couldn’t be happier.  He provides the necessary resources (printed or electronic music) to enable practicing at home in between lessons. What I find most beneficial is Charlie’s ability to take a song that a student is interested in and provide instruction on it in a way commensurate with their current skill level. He’ll take any song the student is interested in and provide them an appropriate version to play, which goes a long way in maintaining interest in learning. If you or your kids are interested in guitar there’s no better guitar teacher in Camarillo, in my opinion.”

“Charlie Lin is a spectacular guitar teacher.  I’m dyslexic which makes it is hard for me to read music. Charlie is very patient and figures out how to help me read the music better. When I’m stuck making something sound right, he always see’s what needs to change and conveys what I need to do in a very positive manner. He jumps on-board with every song I’ve brought to him to learn and seems to enjoy himself. AND I love that he is always on time!!!”

“My 13-year-old has been taking guitar lessons from Charlie for several months and she loves him. He is very patient and encouraging and she has learned a great deal from him. He lets his students choose songs to learn that they like, which helps motivate them to practice. Charlie is professional and organized and we have been impressed with our daughter’s progress.”

“Charlie is effective and patient. I tell him what I want to do, and he teaches me how to do it. It takes me a while to get it (but that’s on me) and Charlie never gets frustrated and remains supportive.

Here’s an example of what Charlie does: I’ll find something I want to learn. I’ll send him a link. Next lesson, he’ll have it all ready and something that takes the concept further. He’ll take me over the technique and explain the theory or strategy behind the technique.

Taking weekly lessons has definitely improved not only my playing (obviously) but my well-being. Once I get the hang of the new weekly challenge, I feel incredibly accomplished.”

“My daughter and I have been taking lessons for 5 months now and we have learned to play the chords to songs and numerous rock and blues riffs. Charlie is also teaching us music theory, so we not only learn how but why. Charlie is a great teacher, very patient and beaks thing down so it is easy to understand. If you want to learn to play, I would recommend giving Charlie call.”

“Best guitar teacher out there. Not only did my level of skills and knowledge increase tremendously, but my passion for music did as well. Everything was very straightforward and easy to grasp. Charlie is also a great guy to be around because he always made me feel very comfortable at my level of guitar and always made sure i staid focused. He is definitely the guy to go to whether it be beginner, expert, or everything in between.”

“Charlie has been my son’s guitar teacher for about 2 months now and he has learned so much already!! My son says he is the best teacher he has ever had! Mind you he has had 3 previous guitar teachers! Charlie Lin is definitely the best out there! Wish I would have found him when my son first started!”

“Our 10 year old daughter has been taking lessons from Charlie for a few months now and we are very pleased with her progress.  Charlie is an excellent instructor and has done a great job of teaching her to play current pop hits as well as music theory.  She continues to be excited for her lessons and has really turned into a wonderful musician thanks to Charlie’s instruction.”

– Paul M. (Parent)

“Charlie Lin is a wonderful teacher.  My son has been taking guitar lessons with Charlie for over three years.  My son has learned and grown exponentially as a musician and is now looking to study music in college.  Thank you Charlie!”

– LS G. (Parent)

“My 13-year-old son has been taking private guitar lessons with for 3+ years now, and he is by far the best guitar teacher my son has ever had; I have been very pleased with the results.  Charlie is very knowledgeable, personable, and great with kids.  He is also more flexible in working out a lesson schedule than other instructors I’ve done business with, and is really good about providing feedback to parents about their child’s progress. My son is becoming quite the young musician thanks to Charlie’s mentorship.  I highly recommend Charlie to anyone looking for great guitar and music instruction for youth or adults alike.”
