Greetings!  My name Is Ryan B.  I have been with TakeLessons for 10 years and have been blessed to work with so many wonderful people.  I would love to work with your or your student!

 I provide personalized and affordable online lessons.  Online lessons are convenient and effective!

What makes me different from other music teachers and tutors?  Simple, I customize EACH  lesson in each subject with the student in mind.  I create a specific goal oriented plan for each student regardless of ability.

Every student has different needs and goals, so I take the time to create and customize plans for each student.

Curious about the effectiveness of online learning?

Here's a recent review of my online drum lessons from Christian: 

"My son has been learning the drums with Mr. Ryan for almost 5 years. We couldn't have asked for a better teacher! Mr. Ryan is kind, funny, patient, and knowledgeable. I don't think you could ask for any more in a teacher! Due to the pandemic, we've shifted to online learning for the past year and it has been such a blessing to be able to continue our learning. Without skipping a beat, Mr. Ryan has created an effortless way for students to learn online. We highly recommend lessons with Mr. Ryan. It's easier now than ever!"

Hope to see you soon!
