“Lessons with Tim have been more than we ever expected. Not only does Tim know piano well, he knows children and their development well. Over the past 5 years I watched him meet my daughter where she was at, nudging when she needed nudging and easing off when that was what she needed. His continual support and adaptation to her changing interests created a space where she could challenge herself. As a result, she continues to love piano and has grown as a person. We are so thankful for Tim’s talent and skill as a teacher!”
“Tim is an exceptionally gifted teacher of music! Both of my sons have had lessons with him for years and he is absolutely fantastic! They have grown remarkably working with him.”
“I have loved working with Tim, both as a student and collaborator! He understands the voice and piano in ways that are refreshingly direct and practical, which makes for excellent instruction. I have so much to thank him for. Truly a fun, brilliant, and talented teacher and mentor!”
“Until I started voice lessons, I never felt confident enough to actually sing out during choir. I’m not sure I would have continued choir at all...much less audition for choir [in college] had I not gained that confidence which I 100% give you credit for.”
“I was always absolutely terrified at singing in front of people...but something shifted for me...and it was because you started to lightly push me to sing more. It if weren’t for your [classes]...I would not have the willpower to do something I love so much!”
“I love when you come to choir because you make everything fun.”
