“I'm so lucky to have Merce as a teacher for my first steps into learning guitar (and my attempts to play the songs I love). Merce has cool taste in all kinds of music, loads of patience for total beginners, and creative ways to help you understand theory, rhythm, the feel and beauty of the music.... and to learn how to make your fingers do what you want them to. Her love for music and desire to share it makes the difference.”

“I’m fortunate and grateful to have Merce as my guitar teacher. She is able to pinpoint areas to improve and provides the means to improve my guitar performance. Merce’s enthusiasm and passion for the classical guitar inspires me to enjoy every moment on my guitar journey.” 

“What a fantastic teacher.  Merce is fun, energetic and generous with her time, and she did a wonderful job tailoring my lesson plans to accelerate my development.   Her own abilities and extensive knowledge of technique and theory are inspirational.  I would recommend Merce to anyone looking for a dedicated, patient and very experienced guitar instructor.”
