My son is typically averse to doing structured lessons but after 3 out of 5 beatboxing lessons with Dr. Dave he's asking me to buy another package!

Dr. Dave is a rockstar. My son is hooked after one session! Can't wait for our next one!

Dave is a fantastic teacher. He is very patient an encouraging. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dave has been great with helping improving my son's drum techniques. He is patient, yet to the point and doesn't waste anyone's time with making sure the student understands the lesson. We are looking forward to many more lessons in the future.

Dave is an incredible drum teacher. I am glad I chose Dave as my djembe teacher and highly recommend him!!!

Dave adjusted the lessons to be appropriate and engaging for my young learner, yet every session introduced a vital piece of theory or technique. We are very pleased with this class!
Dave is a helpful instructor.
My son was very happy with the lesson and the tips that Dave provided. Looking forward to future lessons.

Dave is a great professional teacher that knows to assess his students, knowledgeable in piano and guitar!

Dave is the absolute “best” teacher I have ever had! I’m an older (69) student and his techniques amaze me. I’m learning things I have never been exposed to and so wish I had had a teacher like Dave when I was 10...maybe I would be able to play! Thanks Dave!

He was great with our son. First lesson a d he loved it

Dave was great. Easy to understand and showed me where I need to improve.

Amazing with my son! Much more than I expected! My son can’t wsit for his next class!!

Dave is a natural. Dry easy to talk to and my son learned a lot in jus the first session.

Dave is very knowledgeable, patient and friendly. He is a talented musician. Dave was upfront and honest regarding my singing ability and whether or not I will be able to benefit from lessons. I am going forward. Time will tell.

First lesson is never a good assessment of what may come. I am sticking with it for now!

Great teacher who knows a lot...and is patient with a slow learner like me!

Awesome instructor! My son's a little shy taking lessons on the drums, but Dave puts him at ease and Dave is so patient! Highly recommend.☺️

David, in just a few short weeks has been able to unlock potential I'm not sure I knew or believed I had. He is a professional, extremely knowledgeable and personable as well. I am excited more and more after each lesson for what the future holds.

I have been around piano my whole life and Dave is honestly the best teacher for children I have ever seen. He doesn't get hung up on one book but assess the student and actually teaches and adjust the lesson to match their needs.

Dave really knows the music business inside and out, and he is doing a great job of shepherding my songwriting project along!
My nearly-8 year-old daughter has been taking music lessons at Finale for the last year and a half. Every week, she looks forward to her lesson, and she always comes out of a lesson with a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.

Best!

A very fun session for my 9 year old learning basic drumming. He's over the moon excited! We are pleased to have found such an experienced and knowledgeable instructor.

Our first session with Dave today! Dave is very patient with my boys. He took his time teaching and instructing. We walked away from the first half hour with lots of information. They are excited about learning again and have already spent time practicing.

Patient
Learned a lot

He seems to really get it! He understands how to explain it, he grasps music on such a different level than any other teachers we've used. So far we are extremely impressed.

It was only the first lesson, and I feel like I've already had lesson's before. The lesson was great!

Dave really knows his stuff and can play well on any instrument. I haven't taken lessons from him personally, but I have played music with him. He would make a great teacher.

He is a very talented and knowledgeable teacher who knows a lot about a lot of different instruments. He is a good leader and is good with people. He is dependable, well informed, disciplined, and just plain gifted in music.
I so enjoyed being under his tutorship.

Dave was very patient with our daughter. She was able to understand and relate to him very easily.
