Private Music Lessons
I'm a working professional and I've been taking jazz piano lessons online with Thomas for almost 5 years. He is very organized, patient and gives clear, detailed explanations on music theory. He is very talented and I have learned a lot from him. I highly recommend taking lessons with Thomas! Thomas was easy to work with, flexible and dependent. He helped my daughter build confidence and develop skills without pressure. He was easy to communicate with and exceeded out expectations. Pleasure to work with. Thomas is very nice, knowledgeable and serious, I like serious teachers cause I learn more. He has attention to every detail and motivates me to reach my goal! |
Thomas taught our 10yo son and 8yo daughter piano during the school year 14/15. Our kids were brand new to piano and Thomas did a great job connecting with them on their learning terms and taught them and amazing amount of music. He kept it fresh, was patient, and was very consistent about practice time, using the metronome, posture etc. While I wouldn't call him super strict he brought the right elements of discipline for our kids and they now love the piano and will continue this year. I am an older composer with no real knowledge of sound engineering. Even knowing what questions to ask has been difficult at times. Besides being an accomplished and talented musician / composer who understands what an artist like me seeks to get from the studio, Thomas' understanding of the technical aspects of sound engineering has been extremely helpful. He has been patient, understanding, and a top-rate educator with me. Exactly what I need. I am so glad I reached out to him and highly recommend his help, without reservation. |

Thomas has been great at patiently teaching me everything I've been wanting to learn for years, from composition to technique, I highly recommend him! Thomas was great; reliable and on time. He was clear with instructions and expectations. My son enjoyed piano with Thomas! |
