About
I have become a master teacher and coach. I can and did teach 'from the book' for many years. At this time a plan crafted for each student is possible. Maximum learning and enjoyment. Minimum frustration. The student is the instrument the piano or wind instrument is a machine. Vocal students are encouraged to unlock the inner and outer voice.
When I see the joy and excitement that people experience playing music. That is enough for me.

I am an older student (early 60's) I have been playing on and off since the 4th grade and I have had several teachers through the years. Ron is with out question one of the best. He has tailored each session to exactly where I was at that moment as well as designing a over all plan of development.

I'm a trumpet player and have taken lessons from Ron for about 2 years. He is very informative and and very easy to
understand. We have gone over the jazz scales/chords and how to fit them into improvisation as well as taking a good look at the chord stucture of a song. He always having me play the 3rd's and 7th's to get the flavor of the tune. He's a "superb" Musician!!! Maybe have a "practice CD" to work with until we have another session. Keep doing what your doing!!!

When it comes to music, Ronald is an endless well of knowledge. It truly is difficult to find an individual with as much talent and passion for music that he possesses. From my time spent with him, I can tell he is as eager to teach me as I am eager to learn, and there's absolutely no doubt in my mind that he is an outstanding teacher.
