" I have a sixteen-year-old daughter who has been taking private lessons with Stephen in his excellent studio. She enjoys the lessons, and she is progressing well, Stephen has gained a lot of recognition for providing so many different approaches to teaching kids, and they never get bored with Stephen's lessons. |
" My 14yo son enjoys his guitar lessons with Stephen very much! We started with 30 min classes but quickly went up to 45 min per my son's request. |
" I am a voice and piano teacher who wanted some extra polishing on my guitar skills. I found Stephen and am incredibly pleased with the quality of instruction! As a teacher myself, I have high expectations as far as instruction, sequencing, quality modeling, and professionalism. Stephen hits the mark on all of these categories. As a fellow music teacher, I would highly recommend his services! " |
" I Can't say enough good things about Steven and more importantly the progress I have achieved under his instruction. Having been a player for 40 years and having a good skill set, I was unable to get to the next step especially jamming with others in an improvational setting. After working with him I was playing at a level I never thought I would achieve. I sometimes can't believe what my hands are doing. I can't thank him enough. |
" Unlike other teachers I've had before, he has a very structured teaching approach. He breaks down complex techniques in small modules, which enabled me to learn quickly. He is very accommodating with my schedule, too. Highly recommend him!!!" |

'' Started taking my 14 year old daughter to Bordas Music studio since a year ago. He is a very patient and outgoing teacher. My daughter enjoys taking lessons with him, and now she can play her favorite Taylor Swift’s songs after a year learning. Last week, my younger daughter just told me that she wants to take guitar lessons with Stephen, too. We all love Stephen. I highly recommend him!! " |
" I was a self taught guitar player. I never got a job when I auditioned for a band. I was a typical bedroom guitarist. Stephen showed me what I needed to do to play with a group. Now I play in a band." |
" I've been studying guitar with Stephen for 1 year now. I developed a strong foundation of guitar basics which allow me to play the songs I want to. " |
" Trying to learn songs on my own. I gave up after one year. After studying with Stephen, I learned to get what I wanted to do on the guitar. " |
" I have been playing the guitar for 5 years. What I played never sounded like the song I was trying to learn. When I studied with Stephen, he bridged the gap, " Now I feel like I am really playing"." |
" Stephen is the best guitar teacher. My 14 year old daughter enjoys taking guitar lessons with him. She has been taking lessons with Stephen since she was 10. Now she can compose her own music. Thank you, Stephen! |
" My two boys started taking lessons when they were 11 and 12 years old. My older boy plays bass and little one plays guitar. Stephen is very knowledgeable and has lots of teaching experience, and he gave my kids lots of support and encouragement. This year, they were invited to perform in their high school event. I’m so proud of them. I highly recommend Stephen as a guitar and bass teacher! " |
" Stephen is a very knowledgeable and patient teacher. He is also a very talented and creative musician. I start taking lessons with him since I was 15. Now I’m learning music composition from him. He is a great musician and best guitar teacher in Orange County." |
