I’m Drew Thompson, a guitar teacher with a lesson studio in Hudson, Ohio. With over 20 years experience, I am dedicated to helping students get more enjoyment out of playing guitar. In this time, I’ve instructed complete beginners to advanced players in becoming better, more well-rounded musicians.
