I'm so grateful for the parents of my students. I just received this after our spring concert from the mom of a wonderful 6 year old who rocked it today, "Leo is a phenomenal musician with the gift of translating his skills to his students, even young children. My 6 year-old began learning with Leo 9 months ago and now has a tremendous capacity to appreciate music, sight read, and play guitar with delight. He has designed a curriculum, Kinderguitar, that focuses on the unique ability of young children to understand and learn music in an intuitive way, as a form of language. He is a flexible educator and encourages children to experiment, push boundaries and explore the world of music through the structure he creates. I highly recommend Leo for any student’s guitar learning journey!"
