Hello, my name is Doyle B. and I am eager to help you reach your goals! I've been teaching private lessons since 1992 and have loved helping my students win competitions at the state level, learn how to advance rapidly on their instrument, and fall in love with making music. I have 3 earned degrees from Pensacola Christian College (B.S. in Music Ed., 1992), Hobe Sound Bible College (A.A., 1993) and The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (Master of Church Music, 1996). I have experience teaching all of the band instruments, violin, guitar, and piano. I'm an enthusiastic, upbeat person who greatly enjoys working with people of all ages. I presently employed at Hobe Sound Bible College and Christian Academy. I presently have 4 students in China and the Turks and Caicos Islands that I teach using Skype. Fortunately, I have a few openings in my schedule to teach any one who is serious about excelling on his/her instrument. I look forward to helping you reach your potential.

Write a ReviewDoyle is very understanding of Fred, who has dementia and has previously played the harmonica. His approach is positive and caring. We are looking forward to future lessons.
Great teacher!!! Learned a lot my first class and surprisingly wasn’t overwhelmed! Thank you Doyle! Looking forward to many more lessons from him!
This experience has far exceeded expectations!
I loved and learned more than I could imagine!
Was skeptical about online lessons. A few IT hiccups but they will work out. Instructor seems very knowledgeable and has me excited about getting back into music! Would highly recommend him for all levels of expertise.
My son is only 6, but he felt encouraged and engaged during his lesson!
I am very happy with the results of my first class. Doyle is very professional and is a man after my own principles. I recommend him for classes 100%.
Great saxophone instructor! He is encouraging, positive and motivating. I am a middle school student in Jazz and Symphonic Band. This is only my second year playing the saxophone and he has helped me a lot. I highly recommend him!
Very good in orchestrating your learning process.
It was my 6 year olds first music lesson ever. Mr Doyle was very kind and boosted my son's self esteem. My son is very excited about continuing his lessons.
Doyle, is competent, encouraging, engaging and professional with our 5-year-old. Obviously has years of experience with teaching. Winter is so excited about her next class and we look forward to seeing where music lessons take her!
I enjoyed my first lesson with Doyle. I look forward to my future lessons with him.
Mr Doyle is very encouraging and patient. He teaches in such a way that helps Jackson, who has a disability, want to please. Jackson enjoyed the lesson and is looking forward to the next.
Doyle was professional, encouraging, and patiently provided instruction for our son who is just beginning his journey with learning the guitar.
