"To be honest, I wasn't sure what I needed to learn, but knew that Stephen had been highly recommended and I didn't want to blow this opportunity….Understanding the theory behind the music, gave me the freedom to explore the whole neck of my guitar, and awakened my appetite for composing melodies. I credit Stephen with "getting me hooked" on making music! Many thanks to you Stephen!"

"I came to Dempster Guitar Studio for instruction on how to play the guitar. Instead, I found a coach and mentor who has helped me find my own way and my own expression with this marvelous instrument."

"First of all, I’d just like to thank Steve for all the things he has taught me.
Right from the get go Steve has been a great teacher. I started taking guitar lessons with him before I started the 7th grade. I’m in grade 10 now and taking grade 10 music and I’m far more advanced musically then the people who just learned music through school.
Steve doesn’t stop at teaching songs and teaching you how to play the instrument; Steve teaches you how music works and the backbone of guitar theory. Of course that’s what some expect to hear me say but Steve truly goes beyond the basics. He’s a straight up nice guy who loves to teach and is easy to talk to."
