Review About Me
Stephen's musical career began at an early age. Growing up in a family of seven, Steve began playing the trumpet in grade school, and from there, his musical roots continued to grow. From the theatrical performances of high school to his guitar training at Settlement Music School, Stephen continued to develop as a musician and a performer. He attended Montgomery County Community College, where he studied pieces by Bach, Brouwer, and Tarrega. Steve then furthered his musical education by earning his Bachelor of Music in Jazz Performance at West Chester University. His studies there included music theory, composition, classical guitar, and jazz history studies. Steve offers guitar lessons to beginner through advanced students.

What to expect in my Guitar Lessons
Beginner - Intermediate - Advanced
As an educator, the belief is that music should be fun as it's informative. When the student is covering something they want to learn, their interest goes sky high. Thus your lessons will be catered to your personal style. We use a metronome to lock in rhythms, address a few items with paper and pencil and concentrate on your musical aspirations. so its a good idea to have two songs that you want to dive into at the very beginning of our music journey. Simply said, your musicianship. will develop, as we explore the world of Guitar.

My son Cole is really enjoying his guitar lessons at Taylor Robinson. Steven, his instructor, has shown great techniques for my son to improve. We've gone from purchasing 4 lessons at a time to 12 lessons at a time. A big thank you to Stephen and to Taylor Robinson. Mark wrote on Wed, 23 Aug 2023
