Playing the guitar is a lot of fun, but it can be hard to know where to start.
That’s where I come in! I’m Noel Wentworth, and I’ve been teaching music lessons for over 25 years. I know that when someone asks me what my favorite style of music is, the answer is always “all of them.” I don’t just like playing one kind of song or one kind of instrument—I love everything! And I want you to love it too.
Early Evening Lessons 5:30-8:30pm (Mon-Thurs)

I also offer lessons online so that you can learn from anywhere in the world!
