The music program at BCR has definitely exceeded my expectations so far. Earlier this year when I was looking for a good local guitar teacher, I wasn’t sure if I would be able to find anything. From shopping at BCR, I somehow heard about their music program, so I decided to look on the BCR website to gather info on the teachers and see if any of them would a be right fit for me.

Although I can’t give any feedback on the other teachers as I’ve never had lessons from them, I can assure you that Ryan is a fantastic teacher whom can teach any skill level and age.
There were a couple main things I wanted from a guitar teacher, and that if they were not properly met, I would have had no problems ending lessons.

I had a great experience with Tyler and the BCR music school. He was always very professional, knowledgeable, and communicated clearly to help me understand new concepts. He adapted curriculum to fit my individual needs and musical interests, and he made an effort to incorporate those interests into our lessons. I would highly recommend Tyler and the BCR music school for guitar players, both young and old, looking to get started, pick up new skills, or otherwise further their own development...
Read moreBCR is one of the best businesses in the area. They care about their customers and that shines through in literally everything they do. The attitude in the shop is always positive, there is a contagious energy when you go in there. I have bought guitars and accessories from BCR and will not go anywhere else.
A few months back I started taking lessons with Brian and it has been amazing. Brian asked what I wanted to get from the lessons and his plans have been amazing. I needed to learn the basics and he has delivered. Every week I feel like a get a new piece of a puzzle. Brian is patient, beyond knowledgeable and is a wonderful teacher. Taking lessons at BCR has been a great experience. I’m so glad I...
