Within just a few lesson my abilities have gotten much better. I am feeling more confident and I am enjoying our time together. I am learning more about the structure & history of music and the genre I want to play. Highly recommend

My daughter really enjoyed her lessons with David - David is very calm and supportive for a beginner flute playing 11 year old. Highly recommend to anyone looking for music lessons!

David plunged right in to teach me, and adult beginner, the basics of playing the violin. He included guidance on holding the violin and bow, the mechanics of bowing, and had me playing some simple patterns on the violin. He even helped me fix a problem I had with my bow not tightening properly. He obviously is very well versed in techniques of teaching the violin.

My 9-year-old was playing his electric guitar within the first session. David is great is a great teacher. We've had over five sessions with him and my son is learning something new in each class.

David taught my 4th grader her first trumpet lesson ever and he skills were fantastic. Instruction and communication that David gave were very good. We already have our next lesson scheduled and would definitely recommend David as an instructor.

David showed Noah how to tune his double base and a few new songs. First lesson was mostly to familiarize each other, see what all Noah already new and to get use to virtual learning setting. Noah enjoyed the learning session aside from he gets from his Orchestra classroom.

David was awesome! I had a completely untuned violin when we started and by the end of the hour I was already playing some notes. Patient and knowledgeable. It's not easy in these pandemic times with everything distanced!

My son has been studying music from him since Apr. he taught him playing piano, ukulele and flute and sing songs. My son enjoys and learns a lot from the classes.

I enjoyed the lesson and learned a lot. I will take more lessons. I will order the more advanced book soon. Thank you for the lesson, the hour flew by. I recommend him to all returning adult players like myself that wants to get up to speed quickly.

Appreciate David repairing my son's guitar after it fell over and the floor cracked the neck. He took home the guitar and brought it back on the follow up lesson with it repaired.

David is an excellent tutor-highly recommend! He's been tutoring my daughter for a few months now and he has motivated her to practice and excel in cello. She's been practicing several hours a week now and now she's progress to book 4 now which is a big step up. He explains concepts in a clear manner. Also, he explains the history of the composer and time period of the music. I strongly recommend David!

My son feels that having David M as his tutor will help him to prepare for the ASVAB exam.
