"Jeff
Moore has given our students what they
need most -- a competent and prepared teacher
who is dedicated to their learning how
to accompany Irish music on guitar. To
their benefit, he also is a talented performer
who demonstrates well his methods on stage.
Jeff is one of those rare players who teaches
what he performs."
