Introduction: NOW OFFERING LESSONS USING THE ZOOM APP!!! "Mr. Bob's Personal Philosophy/Mission Statement": Music is a language. We use language to communicate by sharing our ideas with others, learning ideas from other people by asking questions and coming together to create something greater than ourselves. So please feel free to strike up a conversation with me anytime and I'm sure we'll both learn quite a lot from each other :) I play a variety of instruments, play a variety of styles of music and teach students of all ages and skill levels. Although my main instruments are guitar, bass, piano, ukulele and drums. As per my business card: "Instrument and Music Theory Lessons for Students Of All Ages From Beginner To Advanced Levels" I enjoy everything about the work I do! I get to play music with and teach curious, motivated, talented students and in the process I generally learn something such as a new song, style of playing or way of teaching that I can then share with my other students. I also get to enjoy the hospitality of the clients and parents of students that I teach.

My family has had a wonderful experience taking piano lessons with Mr. Bob! This is my children's first introduction to music lessons. Mr. Bob is so patient with them and makes each lesson fun. Bob has great energy, is so encouraging and builds their confidence each week. I'm amazed at how quickly they've been progressing. My kids were enjoying their lessons so much and practicing throughout the week that it piqued my husband's interest in our piano and he now also takes lessons weekly with Mr. Bob! I would highly recommend Mr. Bob to anyone looking for lessons.

We chose Mr, Bob as our children’s piano teacher a few months ago and he has been great. I love that he comes to our home and he is very good with our kids. I think he does a good job of challenging our kids without putting too much pressure on them. He has helped them make a ton of progress. I highly recommend him!

Bob is a great piano teacher. Our 12 year old daughter takes lessons from him and has made great progress on the piano during the past one year with him. He is an exceptional pianist, with lots of enthusiasm and brings a wealth of knowledge in his lessons. Would definitely recommend!
