Brian, Philadelphia
“When I picked guitar up again, after a number of years, I decided that the best way to level up my playing was to find a good guitar teacher who would push me out of my comfort zone. I've been taking lessons with Ellen for three years now, and she has definitely pushed my playing to new levels. She is an outstanding teacher. She has improved my playing, and she has skillfully woven music theory into our lessons, so that I can make better choices as a player. I cannot recommend Ellen enough. Her teaching, skills, and experience are worth every penny she charges.”

“To say that Ellen is an incredible guitar teacher is an understatement. Her teaching style is beyond approachable. She empowers her students with tools to play and create music efficiently. Working with her has been some of the best time and money spent in my life.”
Eleese, Nashville
“I have more confidence for performing than I have ever had because of all of the things she has taught me from her years of experience and knowledge. Ellen is a great teacher because she is supportive and kind but will also push you out of your comfort zone! She is the REAL DEAL!!!”
Maggie Rose, Nashville
“I always look forward to my lessons with Ellen and try to fit one in whenever my tour schedule allows because she is the most affirming and effective teacher for me and my goals. Not only does she help prepare you to play any original or cover that you’re trying to learn, but she also has helped make me feel more capable as a songwriter by helping me understand the theory behind the music. I have come up with some of my favorite melodies and progressions in my songwriting sessions after my lessons with her and that doesn’t feel like a coincidence. She has seen me through so many stages of my career and offered the most thoughtful and entertaining advice along the way. She is an absolute gem and I feel lucky to be a long-time student of Ellen’s.”
Jimmy Wayne, Nashville
“One of the best career moves I made was taking guitar lessons from Ellen Britton. Ellen was, and still is, one of the most influential people in my music career. Any success I have achieved musically is directly attributable to Ellen Britton.”

Debra, Philadelphia
"Wow - you packed in an incredible amount of info — from alternate fingerings to how to figure out what a b7 chord would be in any key to fingerpicking patterns. I lost my mojo & hadn’t picked up my guitar in a long time, but you always inspire me. Thank you, Ellen!"
