Tim is amazing! He is of course incredibly knowledgeable, but he also has a very friendly, relaxing and positive attitude which makes working with him a pleasure. Tim was also very elegantly able to handle my impressive OCD when it came to editing :) I am definitely looking forward to recording at Mountain Dog Musicworks again soon. Thank you!

Professional with an easy going teaching style. Allowed me to ask questions, freedom to find my personal interests and abilities with the notes and chords. I enjoyed the instruction and plan to continue the piano courses with Mountian Dog Musicworks.

I am taking guitar lessons, so the "job" will be a work in progress for a long time. Tim is personable and professional, and I'm comfortable working with him.
