Over the years, I have had the fortune to work with hundreds of students, and noone can describe lessons better than my past students.
If you’re considering lessons, please feel free to read what my current and former students have to say about lessons.
As a current or former student, please take a moment to describe your lessons. Tell the world about what you’ve learned, or maybe tell a funny story from one of our student performances.
Just write it in the comment box below. Please be sure to sign your name, age and how long we’ve been working together.
Thanks!
For the past six years I have instructed hundreds of music students in Salem and Christiansburg, VA. I can truly say that I’ve learned as much as I’ve taught. Thank you all!
-Scott Kulick (28 years old, Christiansburg VA)
Three years ago i remember going to a yard sale. At that yard sale i got an ok First Act guitar for sixty five dollars. In my almost four years with Scott he has been able to transform myself from only being able to strum random notes to playing through a song perfectly.
Who knows where I would be without Scotts guidance.
I took guitar lessons from another teacher 4 years ago and hated it. Two years ago I started up again taking from Scott and I love guitar so much more than I did. Thanks for the good times!
I remember in a band intro class in 6th grade, our band director called me up to try to play the trumpet. That was when i knew it was my thing. Im glad i got to take lessons with scott. I doubt i will ever find as good a trumpet teacher as scott because he gets you involved im performances and gives you an initial idea of what its really like. And I also appreciate how he didnt just teach me by the music, he also taught improv. Scott, good luck im new york!
Scott is one of the best teachers I have ever worked with. He has a fun way of making music engaging and always interesting. Scott was always ready to offer help to me, and answer any questions I had. His teaching covered a wide spectrum of musical subjects, including the all-important performance opportunities. His past 6 years of teaching have really changed my life in more ways than just music. Scott has taught me that carefully preparing, practicing, working hard, and believing in yourself are the most important aspects of music. Scott has taught me most importantly to relax and have fun playing music, and to never, ever, stop reaching for the stars.
I am the mother of Amelia Witter, age 14, who has taken guitar lessons from Scott Kulick for the past 6 years. When she started lessons at the age of 8, she had only a basic understanding of music. Amelia had asked for 2 years to take guitar lessons before I took her to meet Scott at Ridenhour Music. He evlauated her and said she was ready to start lessons.
Since that time, Amelia has grown tremendously under Scott’s instruction. Scott was able to effectively teach Amelia to play guitar along with an appreciation for music. Scott has always designed public performance opportunities for his students. I have seen Amelia’s confidence grow with each performance.
Amelia competed in the 2009 4-H Share the Fun talent contest. Not only did she progress from the local level to the district level, she won the blue ribbon for instrumental music. Amelia was asked to perform at the closing ceremony where she was awarded a purple ribbon “Best in Show”.
I cannot thank Scott enough for all he has done for Amelia over the last 6 years. All of his students are fortunate to have him as their teacher. He has a tremendous knowledge of music and freely conveys it to his students. Scott is a dedicated teacher and all who study under him in the future will benefit greatly. He will be missed in Virginia.
I’ve taken lessons with scott for almost a year and have to say that he is very organized, a great teacher,and knows exactly what he is talking about. I hope he does well and has fun with what he is doing.
I have been taking guitar lessons with Scott for a little over a year and a half in New York and he truly is the best teacher you will ever find. He is organized and always on time to lessons. He fits his schedule around you and even stays a little extra after lessons are over, just to talk about what you learned. And he doesn’t just teach you music, he engages you into fun activities that can relate to real life.
Over the past year and a half I have learneed so many songs, chords and scales, that I have lost count. And I have never stopped loving it. If you want to learn music the right way, Scott is the man to teach you. :)
I’ve been taking guitar lessons with scott for about a year and a half and i can tell you that he is the best teacher that you will ever find. I started taking lessons when i was eight. Now i am almost 10 and know so much that i am filling up my second notebook. When i started taking lessons with him, i knew two notes but now i play guitar so much better because of him. I cant imagine myself playing without him. He has improved my confidence in playing guitar and my speed and strength of fingers have also improved.
I thank scott for teching me all that i know and for improving my speed and skill. One of my most favorite songs that he taught me is Rude Mood. He always challenges me with new material and i’m always looking forward to new lessons.:D

I currently have 2 of my sons using Scott for lessons. One of them is learning guitar, and the other trumpet. It is amazing how motivated they are, and how much they’ve improved in such a short time. Although they had been taking lessons previously from other instructors, Scott provided the structure and excitement that was lacking, thereby propelling them to greater musical heights. I will be starting a third son with Scott on piano, and I’m quite confident it will work out perfectly. I highly recommend Scott for all music lessons.
