    Patient, knowledgeable, dedicated, flexible, fun -- everything you could want in an instructor! Flexible schedule, very patient, and very knowledgeable. Lessons with him are relaxed and he provides great, detailed critique on how to better performance and technique. He does a great job of preparing for lessons as well. Highly recommended!
