Jan said: Dylan provided a very structured and engaging approach to leading our mixed group of guitar experience into playing the guitar. He encouraged and challenged us as well as played some beautiful music in the classes. As a complete novice, I was very pleased to feel myself progress and to enjoy each class and practice. I feel that I learnt a lot in this class and this was due primarily to Dylan.
