Teacher/Lessons in Connecticut

Sign in to disble this ad
I'm looking to take up some lessons on a part-time schedule. I have a very busy life with kids, traveling for work, etc. I do take my bass with me when I travel so I do get practice time in.

Are there any teachers one could recommend in the Hartford area?
And are there any available instructors (please speak up) out there that could accommodate a once-a-month type schedule? Ideally, I'd like to work with someone at least my age (33) that has solid experience teaching bass guitar.

Note: I've tried my local music shop and their instructor's style wasn't a good fit for me.

edit: before I get flamed - I did try the advanced member search. There's a ton of hits, but rather than PM each one, I posted this.

with your busy / part time schedule you might consider correspondence lessons with Cliff Engel at www.cliffengel.com I studied with Cliff for about a year and it was great with my travel schedule. Awesome value and lesson material.

Good luck!
