Susan T. says, "Kevin is a master musician and an awesome instructor. He has an easy-going, friendly, encouraging presence, while also being rigorous in making sure his students learn both skills and artistry. He's focused on the joy of making music and the importance of practice and muscle memory. Because he also works as an engineer, he can help drummers understand how their playing will fit into a band or an ensemble. He encourages his students to explore improvisation and other forms of percussion. Best of all, he's hilarious, and there's not much my 13-year-old son enjoys more than his drum lessons with Kevin. We couldn't recommend him more highly." Read more

Daniel B. says, "Jacob is awesome! I have wanted to dive into jazz and this guy just gets it. He's super encouraging and actually makes it fun. I'm not just mindlessly pressing keys or following tutorials, I'm actually getting to learn about how music works. While our curriculum is focused on jazz, Jacob is never shy about teaching me the occasional pop tune that I want to learn. Most folks think you have to start playing an instrument as a youngster, but I'm an adult with a job and a family, and I can't believe how much I've progressed in such a short time. If you're looking for a piano teacher, this is the guy." Read more

Lessons are custom tailored for students needs. I believe the best learning to be experiential and inspired, if you’re inspired, you will practice! My goal is to inspire and encourage expression in the art form of playing piano, to bring out the student’s own natural musicality and self-expression. I want the student to really enjoy the learning experience! I use a combination of techniques in my lessons that coordinates the mind, hand, fingers, and spirit. I will cover sound foundation skills such as: Technique, Sight Reading, Rhythm Development, Theory, Exercises for Finger Development and Control, Improvisation, & Musicianship. Getting ...

Jacob is very patient, skilled, and highly informed in music theory. I learned so much and we made a lot of progress in just one lesson. Definitely hit the jackpot having him as a teacher!

Nicolette was such a great instructor! She was always very knowledgeable and patient with me. I learned so much from her. The lessons were started off with warm-ups/breathing exercises. Then we would work on a song that we chose together. I would sing as she made notes on what I did and didn't do well and then we'd go over those notes. The lessons were always VERY constructive and she would always leave me with exercises to help me improve between our weekly lessons. 10/10

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!

Jan has been nothing short of a great teacher and friend to me. Shes critical on where you need to improve and encouraging with your strengths! If you're looking for a teacher with lots of personality, stories, and drive to help you further yourself; you're in the right place.
