About Me
Hi, my name is Brendon, and I am a Musician from Tampa. I have been a student of music for 10 years. My musical influences include classical and I also enjoy folk/alternative. My teaching style can best be described as hands on. My teaching philosophy can best be described by saying that I help people to achieve their full potential. In my lessons, you can expect to start with the foundations that will give you a solid springboard into the advanced topics of the instrument. I like to tell my students they are capable of anything they set their minds to. My favorite thing about teaching is watching the growth of my students. It's humbling that I can have such an effect on people's lives. My favorite performance was high school year violin where I was awarded the most outstanding violinist trophy for my school. My students love that I teach them at their pace but also nudge them farther at the proper times. I primarily teach classical guitar and violin, but I can also teach other forms of guitar like rock, blues and acoustic. My approach as a teacher is to give them the best advice in timed intervals to have them make adjustments to their playing habits. Thanks for taking a look at my profile. Hope to meet you soon!

What to expect in my Keyboard and Piano Lessons

Beginner - Intermediate - Advanced

Tailored Lessons discussing whatever topics and materials you would like. My only goal is to get you better at what you want to do.


What to expect in my Orchestral Lessons

Beginner - Intermediate

I teach out of books mainly and then after you have gotten to a relatively proficient level then we move on to some individual songs that you would like to learn. You can expect a great progression curve to the upper levels of playing. If you put in the work then you will see amazing results with my help, however if you don't practice you will hold yourself back.

He was really good about getting back to me in a timely manner. He was easy to work with and flexible with his schedule since mine is so demanding. I haven't started lessons yet, but so far my experience has been a good one. Jayne S wrote on Mon, 30 Nov -0001

      I play the violin and have always felt stuck like I couldn't progress but he has helped a lot. He's a great and patient teacher, highly recommend. Brendon Menendez wrote on Sun, 24 Sep 2023

        after years of thinking that it would really fun to play the guitar I finally decided to go for it. learning new hobbies that require thought and coordination when in your 50s is a challenge so was so happy when Brendon was recommended. Brendon is very patient and takes his time to make sure i understand what I am doing, why it's important and how to improve. Highly Recommend his services...excellent teacher!

          Brendan gives music lessons to my two children 5 and 8. One on piano and one on guitar. They really like him and like his methods. They are learning well! we highly recommend him! Brendon Menendez wrote on Sun, 24 Sep 2023

            Brendon is a great teacher! My boys ages 11 and 16 started piano for the first time a year ago, and it is AMAZING how much they have learned taking lessons from him. He is very calm and patient. My kids really like him. All lessons are scheduled via an app which allows for text or email lesson reminders and easy payment. Bonus-he came to our home for lessons. This was so helpful with our busy schedule! Brendon Menendez wrote on Sun, 24 Sep 2023

              I cannot say enough good things about Brendon. From day one, his passion for music and teaching has been evident. He creates a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere, making each lesson a delight. His communication skills are excellent, and he breaks down complex concepts into simple steps, facilitating rapid progress. Brendon's patience and encouragement are unmatched. He takes the time to address all my questions and tailors each session to suit my interests and skill level. With his guidance, I've overcome challenges and gained confidence in my playing abilities.

                Brendon has been an awesome teacher. I have always wanted to learn the guitar but I would always get to a certain point and quit. After enlisting the help of Brendon I was able to break past my barriers and get to a level I didn't think was possible. As a teacher he is very patient, understanding, and helps to give you confidence in the difficult pursuit it is to learn an instrument. Very knowledgeable on music theory if you're looking for more knowledge in that subject. Highly recommend. Brendon Menendez wrote on Sun, 24 Sep 2023

                  I have worked with several piano instructors and feel like Brendon's strategy works the best! He makes it soo seamless and easy that anyone can learn! He is not only amazing at teaching you piano from an instructors manual, but he dives even DEEPER with his personal "tip/tricks" really helped make it easier to learn. I started on a short trial period session with him and have been happily renewing him ever since! Thank you Brendon! keep up the good work! See you next week!

                    Brendon is an amazing teacher. I started learning piano with him a few months ago. He picked up on my learning style and asked me what I would be excited to learn. Based off of that is what he taught me! Brendon Menendez wrote on Sun, 24 Sep 2023

                        So happy with Brendon for our daughters' music lessons! He is patient, well mannered, easy going and has been such a joy for them. They love their music lessons day! We will gladly recommend Brendon as a talented and great music instructor. : Brendon Menendez wrote on Sun, 24 Sep 2023

                            Instructor was kind enough to provide pointers on guitar size that would help with finger placement-even though I selected a different instructor! Brendon Menendez wrote on Sun, 24 Sep 2023

                                    I'd highly recommend Brendon to teach anyone music. He taught me how to play classical guitar and now I'm very happy with my ability to play the guitar and move around the fret board. Brendon Menendez wrote on Sun, 24 Sep 2023

                                                Great experience so far. Brendon was good about communicating quickly, and he was flexible and willing to work around my schedule to get classical guitar lessons started pretty quickly. Even after just my first lesson, I came away with a couple of great ideas for starting out. I look forward to continuing to work with him. Brendon Menendez wrote on Sun, 24 Sep 2023
