    Our daughter took trombone lessons from Mr. Ronald in his home for the three years she was playing and she had a wonderful experience. He is warm, patient, and challenging. He has a great way of being funny and relaxing, genuinely interested in his students as people, and at the same time keeping them on task and bringing them to the next level. We were very happy to have found him.

    Mr. Ronald taught trombone lessons to my 11-year-old son in our house. He was very proficient and a patient and kind teacher, and my son made excellent progress. We were also grateful that Mr. Ronald was flexible and good-natured when it came to scheduling conflicts. All in all, it was an excellent experience, and we hope to resume the lessons again soon.

    Ron was an excellent tuba teacher for my son. He always greeted him with a smile and a positive attitude. He was genuinely interested in my son's progress. My son has some learning difficulties, and Ron was always very sensitive to that. He worked closely with my son to be sure he understood what he needed to do, breaking down the music pieces into smaller segments if necessary. I would highly recommend Ron as a teacher of tuba and low brass instruments to anyone.
