Reviews

I have been struggling with a counterpoint class at Berklee and Aaron explained the concepts in terms I could easily understand and relate to. His depth of knowledge is impressive and his patient and kind approach makes the process easy and fun.
- Pepe E. from Los Angeles, CA
Really great teacher. He does a good job explaining concepts. For example, he takes time to explain the key differences in why certain words are used in Spanish.
- Jordan H. from Redmond, WA
Did a great job of going over basics and explaining everything very clearly. Gave me some thing to study and go over for our next lesson. With his help, I really think I'll learn Spanish!
- Deborah S. from Los Angeles, CA
I really like working with Aaron, he is patient and gives me really good reasons for all the rules I am applying in Counterpoint. I have worked with him for Music Theory also, excellent tutor! Leah

My son has always struggled with Spanish. Aaron?s awesome work with him has made all the difference - helped him catch up quickly and learn the material effectively. And Collin respects Aaron and enjoys working with him. Highly recommended!
- Karin M. from San Jose, CA
Very great lesson. Glad to have such a great teacher that helps talk through things and consistently evaluates my fluidity and confidence.
- Morgan L. from Lacey, WA
He succeeds at being as thorough as he can with what little time he has with his students. Always very open to questions and helps get you out of your comfort zone during conversation practice.

I?ve been with Aaron for a few months now and my Spanish has seriously improved. He is a wonderful teacher, a joy to spend time with, and cares very deeply about his students. He build exercises for me to do outside of class that help build a strong foundation. His skills outside of Spanish are expansive, he speaks German and Italian, and has a masters in music. I highly recommend working with him on any topic!!

Aaron's helped me a great deal on my quest to become a good songwriter. He's very knowledgeable and can help with anything from how to structure a song to how to use chords to how to bring out the best in a song I've been working on. He gives lessons and take-home assignments. At the same time, he's patient and friendly, and his sessions are a lot of fun. I feel fortunate to have found him.

I came to Wyzant hoping to find tutors for music production and Spanish. I did not think I would find one tutor who could do both well, but I was wrong. Aaron is an excellent tutor in both subject, and much more. He is quick to pick up on what I need help with and adapts lessons on the fly to meet my needs. He's also very easy to talk to!
- Victoria R. from River Forest, IL
Very patient. Learned a lot. Highly skilled. Will use again in the future no doubt. Have zero musical background but Aaron brought themes and topics down to my level.

Learning Spanish was is a lot easier with Aaron?s help. He helped me better understanding multiple different ways to conjugate verbs and made it much easier to understand the concepts being taught to me.
