Clay has been a wonderful teacher for our daughter! She started taking lessons at the age of four and has made great progress with him. We took a short break when Covid first hit, but we have all adapted and now take lessons on Zoom. Clay is always punctual, prepared, and encouraging. Even when our daughter is not particularly focused, he manages to motivate her. Two other family family members also take lessons from Clay. We all highly recommend him!

Clay has helped me find a way that works for me to conquer pieces I didnt think I could. My playing is getting better at a surprising rate. Every week Clay gives great pointers that refresh my practicing.

Clay is a wonderful, talented, knowledgeable teacher. He is extremely professional and instills a lifelong appreciation of music. He always challenged me to be a better pianist. With Clay as my teacher, I had the opportunity to learn how to play more difficult pieces. I really enjoyed every class with him. I would highly recommend Clay.
