Rhonda Fisher

“Mike Powell is a man whose name is well known within the music and art community in Warren County. I have talked about my children taking guitar lessons in a handful of social circles; whenever Mike’s name is mentioned, I hear nothing but wonderful things. My experience with him as a guitar teacher over the past year and a half is that he is professional, punctual, capable and kind. I have two sons, 11- and 13-years-old, who take lessons from mike. Each son is unique in their strengths and weaknesses. He tweaks his teaching style on the spot, providing a catered experience for each child. He praises their successes and gently combs through their imperfections, building their confidence and creating a great guitarist along the way. Mike is talented and successful within the skill that he teaches others. On top of that, he truly cares. This is why he stands apart.”
