i started with leon 7 years ago. i have a great time each week. i have through his ability to teach me guitar, done something i have always wanted...To play guitar and enjoy. He is a great teacher. When you read his profile, he has played and traveled with some of the best musicians on the planet.I feel i am in the presence of greatness, yet he is humble about his past musical life. By choosing Leon Rubenhold, you are learning from one of the best. Make it your choice!

Within ONE lesson, Howard could pinpoint EXACTLY what my trouble areas are, and not only is he able to articulate a very clear plan for dealing with those, but he has also helped me with the burdening amount of pain that plagues my joints and muscles when I play something technically demanding! Furthermore, he is very focused, understanding, knowledgeable and gentle! After having many verbally.... difficult teachers whose teaching involved quite a bit of negative reinforcement, it is an absolute pleasure and an eye opening experience to have a patient, understanding teacher. Some people may learn quite well in that fashion, and there was a period of time when I actually believed, or rather was brainwashed into thinking that being verbally berated would serve as motivation. But now I see quite clearly that is not the case: I learn a lot better and I am more motivated to practice when I find it a pleasure to go to my piano lessons! Thank you, Howard for all your dedication, patience and knowledge!

It is not just about hitting the right note, it is about relaxing and really feeling the joy of the music, of the perfect sound. It is an approach that is both unique and effective.

They come to you and make learning so convenient! It's the best way to learn any instrument. They have the best list of instructors and are so easy to work with!

My kids have been taking classes at HAMA for nearly two years, and the ease and passion with which their teacher instructs leaves them so motivated. The office staff is extremely helpful and always so understanding about make ups and scheduling. Really not sure if my kids would be this passionate about music if it weren't for this school!

Bennett put our child at ease immediately. he's a warm funny guy. he choose some great sings to learn and didn't make it staid and rote like so many of his contemporaries. learning the guitar with him was a joy as he makes it fun.

Mr. Gil is a great teacher who can make it easier to understand different concepts of music and well as music theory in general. He allows students to express themselves in songs of their choices when they’re ready and motivates them to improve.
