So.this is attempt number 2 picking up the guitar. The program structure is great and you can see improvement pretty quickly.like from lesson one. I know it's not going to be a sprint but I'm really enjoying the process. Hit Michael up and Check them out!

I can not rate Melbourne guitar academy highly enough. It has been the most positive, rewarding and motivating experience. I had never had guitar lessons before and as an adult I felt nervous and unsure about beginning the journey. Michael took all the apprehension and fear out of the initial process and made me feel so comfortable. I look forward to my weekly lessons. Frank is an absolute gem of a teacher and we always have the best time learning and laughing in our beginners group. I have already come such a long way with my guitar playing in such a short amount of time. Playing with others has given me confidence and I’m feeling more creative as a result. I especially like that we are playing the music we like to play and learning our own favourite songs from the get go. For all things guitar MGA is the place to be, hands down.

I have just done a month of beginner lessons with Michael. The positive attitude and learning techniques have been first class. I feel I have been really progressing.

Melbourne Guitar Academy have made learning guitar so much easier than I thought it would be. Michael is really helpful with great tips to improve your techniques and he gets you learning how to play songs from pretty much the beginning. Learning guitar from them has made being stuck at home much more enjoyable.

Brilliant discovery over the school holidays. My daughter has had a few lessons conducted online and she has gone from not having any idea about guitar, to being able to play a few chords and some basic songs. She has really enjoyed learning guitar with this group. Michael is very patient and a great teacher.

Thank you

Highly recommended for complete beginners to advanced players. Michael and the other guitar teachers are great. Both my primary school daughter and I are students and love attending lessons here.

My son has been getting lessons from Michael within a school programme for more than four years and established a fantastic music foundation that he can build on. We recommend Michael if you are serious about guitar playing.

Michael at MGA helped me to unlock my guitar powers and unleash the fury. All his lesson content is practical, relevant and modern.
He has a wide expertise in all music genres, playing styles, and learning methods.
Michael taught me the right way to learn guitar without mindless repetition. Everything is fun, interesting and challenging in the right ways.

I first met Michael, the owner of Melbourne Guitar Academy, at an International Guitar Teaching Summit held in Chicago. This event was designed for guitar teachers like myself to network and gain skills from the best minds in the industry.

Michael has always been very friendly, approachable and clearly passionate about helping transform peoples lives through music which is why I caught up with him at the event to share ideas.

From the conversations we had at the event and via online correspondence Michael has helped me to gain a much bigger insight to what my students enjoy, how they are motivated, inspired and given tactics I can use to bring out the best in my students.

My own teaching studio feels like a second home now, with a great community of students who have fun, believe in themselves and are proud to play music.

Thank you Michael, I can only imagine how much fun your students must be having

Great environment for learning and enjoying the experience. Michael and Amy are a great team and devise a program based on your skill set. I’m a senior who had never played and I’m now playing riffs to my favourite rock songs. Really enjoy going here, learning heaps. Highly recommended for all skill sets, great teacher who adapts the program to suit.

Great place to learn guitar for all skill sets and age groups. Michael helps you learn at your own pace and balance guitar playing with your busy work schedules. I must say, i have learnt quite a lot of skills here that i use in my corporate work life all the time.

I have been playing guitar for a while and I thought I was an okay guitarist. Since starting lessons with Michael, I realised that I had developed some bad habits and had poor techniques. Michael has been able to point these issues out as well as provide me with really easy ways to practice and improve my playing. This is from, thumb placement and learning difficult chord fingurings. I've got to say that my playing has improved and I am enjoying playing guitar more than I have.
Apart for being a great musician and teacher, Michael has a fantastic way of teaching which is structured and will improve your guitar playing abilities no matter what level you are at.
