Thank You so much for accepting our impromptu invite to jam at our shop Geyserville Vintage with the others of the Just Strings Festival in Geyserville CA. What a treat to hear you play and to see the dancing.

Hey Roger,
The class was awsome, like last time i took it. This class taught me that flamenco players are prob the best guitarists haha. Anyways, when you start playing concerts, ill definitly come watch you play. your performance, today was awesome and maybe ill try learning flamenco pieces one day, since they seem fun to play
Have a good rest of summer

I couldn't recall a single guitar chord when I first entered the class, now I know at least 7 :)...and a couple cool songs...your style of Flamenco playing really opened up a new genre of guitar music for me
We got one more performance up on Tuesday, it's been a fun class, hoping we can jam sometime when I get better, Cheers!

After seeing you play from the first time I kind of wanted to just sell my guitar knowing I would never get to that level. Then I thought, I'll still be able to impress the people who have never seen you play...so I changed my mind.
I just wanted to let you know that your class at York is by far the best course I've ever taken. In the few weeks that you've been teaching us, I've taken in a lot of interesting content about famous artists, and have also realized that I only play a few of my chords correctly.
Anyway, I spiced up your bio a little bit in my scrapbook so make sure you actually read it!
Can't wait for the performance this thursday!

Dear Roger,
As you know I am still enrolled in your class, and that is because I love the positive energy you give out in the class room. our music classes is when I come to relax and just enjoy music, as opposed to the hard university life at York U.
When starting in fall 2009 I did not even know how to hold a guitar properly, but after being a a a part of the coolest class in the York u history, I am now not only holding a guitar the right way, but now I have learned to not only hold it right, but also read chords, sing along and perform live. I have also been encouraged to continue writing my own songs and recording music. I think your class will be the first and last thought in my mind when thinking of York U when I am 80 years old, sitting and looking through my music journal :)
I think you and your family are wonderful people and very successful in my opinion, that I am honored to have met you and to have been your student.
In any case, I hope that after these next two weeks we will see more each other (perhaps I will enroll in your class again for the third time - if that's not too weird...hehehe)
Saying that, I will see you in class on Thursday and I am looking forward to seeing you and your wife perform together!

Roger, thank you for a wonderful year of guitar lessons at York! I enjoyed every class with you especially the day you taught us that magic trick (with the fake thumb) lol! Before I started university I couldn't play anything on the guitar besides a 'G' chord... now I can play whole songs and can read tabs! I am still working on getting more proficient at playing but you have inspired me to keep it up. You are an awesome teacher and I'm glad I had the chance to meet you! : )

I tend to be very avoidant of most people. But once in a while someone comes along and touches my heart, and inspires me to be great. I am not accustomed to the kindness of others, which makes me appreciate it all that much more.
you may not realize it, because it is part of your essence, to be patient and kind and dedicated - but it is those qualities you express in your teaching that remind me to be better, and that weakness of attitude becomes weakness of character.
I am fortunate enough to learn from you not only music, but how not to be Weak.

PS I have my aunt staying with me @ present and she lives in Tarpon Springs Fl, she'll be returning there around the 5/6th January.
She is your fathers cousin, my Mum's sis, and she knows your parents very well. She would love to hear from you, in case I don't hear from you (as we're goin to Malta for a forthnight starting 1st Dec) have a wonderful Xmas
