Experienced tutor in Guitar in Allentown, Mike offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

Mike is a great instructor. His depth of experience and mastery of music theory combined with his patience and ability to clearly explain whatever lesson he's teaching makes for a very rewarding learning experience.

I've been playing guitar since the late seventies and I'm always on the quest to learn because the learning never ends. I came to Mike Dugan through his workshops at the Fab Lab at Northampton Community College. What I value most about Mike's teaching is that he focuses on helping students understand music theory as it applies to guitar, not just tablature or scales. Mike's teaching instills the perspective that if you understand the chord structure of a song, then you'll know what's available scale wise at any point in the song, to use for playing accents, riffs, and solos. After decades of playing, even as a "front man" and "lead guitar player" and a two album recording artist, I still had a lot of holes in my understanding of guitar playing. Mike's teaching has literally changed my life as a guitarist, and I'd recommend that anyone, from beginner to seasoned troubadour give Mike's lessons a try. You won't regret it!

I attended Mikes workshops in Bethlehem and was always pleased with the progress I made.Mike is a great well rounded guitarist.He's also a great teacher.

Mike is an awesome blues guitar teacher. He works with you to determine what you need to advance to the next level. Would definitely recommend him to any level guitar player.

I am a professional Registered Piano Technician , with a love for music and some basic guitar skills .
I Studied with Mike Dugan in my spare time for over a decade. What initially impressed me was his technical prowess on the guitar. Once I sat with Mike at his studio , I found that he was the first teacher who actually asked me specifically about my goals. He then helped me reach those milestones. His patience , kindness and inspirational way of delivering information helped me to develop both personally and professionally. Five stars out of five for Mr. Dugan.

Mike is an outstanding teacher. He is diverse and a true master player. But to teach is something not every musician can do. Mike is the best teacher I have ever had.
