Hi! I'm Morgan, and I teach super fun in-home guitar lessons in Phoenix and online.
Imagine learning music the way you play your favorite game—totally immersed, time slipping away as you improve without even realizing it. The thrill of pushing your limits, not because you have to, but because it feels fun and rewarding.
That’s the best feeling in the world—and it’s exactly what Scorecard Music Lessons is all about.
Whether you’re into Taylor Swift, Imagine Dragons, or heavy metal guitar covers of Japanese anime songs, I want to help you play the music you love. It's important to work on music that makes you feel alive, and your priorities and passions matter at Scorecard Music Lessons. I want to get you playing the music that you want to play, and have some fun along the way!
Forget battling traffic or rushing to a studio. I offer IN-HOME LESSONS in:
•Phoenix | Scottsdale
•Glendale | Peoria
•North Phoenix | Norterra
•Cave Creek
I also offer ONLINE LESSONS via Zoom, so you or your kids can learn from the comfort of your own space. That means more time to relax—or practice your skills!
I’m a 100% independent music teacher—just one person, not a big music school—so I can only take on a handful of students at a time. Most of my students stay with me for years, which means spots open up pretty rarely. Right now, I have 3 after-school openings—once they’re filled, they tend to stay filled for a long time. If you want in, now’s your shot!
Morgan teaches my son piano and guitar and our entire experience has been amazing! My son has an awesome relationship with Morgan and he’s not only learning, but he has so much fun every time they meet. Morgan makes learning music fun, while also teaching the skills needed to be a great musician. Would recommend him to anyone and we are so glad we found him!
I started lessons with Morgan after I felt like I had hit a plateau in my self taught guitar learning. Since beginning lessons I have made improvements at a much faster pace and have had more fun doing it than ever before. He is a great person and an amazing teacher. Looking forward to seeing my progress even further down the road. Thanks Morgan!
Morgan is fantastic! He is an incredible Musician, and a patient, talented Instructor. My children are 6 and 9, and he finds ways to keep them engaged and learning. Morgan worked with our family to find a schedule that worked, and is punctual and reliable. He's easy to work with and flexible. I HIGHLY recommend him!
Morgan is great! His approach is very collaborative, lessons never feel like a chore. He is enthusiastic and endlessly encouraging! His love of music, and of teaching music, really shines through.
I started taking guitar lessons from Morgan June of 2021. When I started I had a basic grasp of the guitar. After 4 months of lessons with Morgan my playing became exponentially better. He was able to explain how everything works together in a fun and exciting way to where I always looked forward to my next lesson. I would recommend Morgan to anyone no matter what their music skill is!
I asked my 15YO son how he would describe Morgan to prospective students. I took notes while he talked:
* Friendly and fun * Keeps lessons interesting and engaging * Tells stories, makes jokes * Monitors progress, sets clear goals that set students up for success * Praises, congratulates students on progress, always finds something positive to say * Not too strict, doesn't put too much pressure on me * Gives good advice (about music, equipment and life) * Seems like he genuinely cares
As a parent I will add that Morgan is reliable and communicative. I'm so grateful that he has been able to motivate our son.
All lessons are taught by me, Morgan, the founder of Scorecard Music Lessons. I hold a Bachelor of Music Degree from Musicians Institute with a Minor Degree in Audio Production and have more than 25 years of musical training and more than 10,000 hours of teaching experience.
I’ve worked with beginners and experts of all ages. I always aim to meet my student where they are at and help them get where they want to go.
I use a game-based approach to make learning fun and interactive. Lessons are customized to your interests, whether you want to play your favorite songs, improve technique, or explore new genres.
Not at all! Whether you’re picking up an instrument for the first time or brushing up on existing skills, I’ll meet you where you are and help you grow.
I offer in-person lessons at your home or in my studio, as well as online lessons via Zoom for your convenience.
My studio is located in Northgate, Phoenix, near Turf Paradise (19th Ave and Bell). If you choose to have your lessons at my studio, I’ll share the exact address once we’ve scheduled your first session. Alternatively, I offer in-home lessons throughout the Phoenix area for your convenience, as well as online lessons via Zoom.
I offer fun, game-based music lessons for kids and adults! I don't just teach game-based lessons because they're fun either. I teach using games because games foster active engagement on the part of the student and that's what gets results! My lessons focus on guitar, piano, bass, voice, general music theory, composition and production, and are tailored to your goals and skill level.
It’s easy! You can write to me using the CONTACT form on my website or call/text me at 505-670-3709, and I’ll be in touch within 24 hours to discuss your goals and schedule your first lesson.
