“I found the Gigajam system totally fascinating. First there was the personal touch: nice to see who I was dealing with in the introductory videos, comments via portfolio, e-mails when necessary, and constant encouragement leading to a sense of achievement. Then the magic of Xtractor, giving such precise analysis of every single note. And the totally new experience of playing along with other instruments – great!” — Madeline Lord
“Apart from the pleasure that learning a new skill naturally gives, as well as being very frustrating at times, I look forward to receiving feedback on my video uploads. I feel it gives me some comfort that I’m making some progress and heading in the right direction. I guess there is no substitute for one to one tuition but my lifestyle at the moment doesn’t fit perfectly with this method and I do believe I have found the next best thing. It has an element of personal interaction that I like and actually receiving this feedback request email from you did make me smile, there really is a person on 'the other side'.” — Nick Moss
“My experience of Gigajam is one that encompasses many learning styles, right from the written word to videos to practical application. It covers everyone’s preferences for learning and that is rare. I love that I can go to it whenever is convenient, I am not restricted to specific lesson times and I can carry on if I am in the zone or stop if I am tired or distracted. The flexibility is marvellous.
I love this way of learning a musical instrument and would recommend it to everyone. It’s not conventional but when did ‘conventional’ ever move the world forward?” — Andy Gordon
