Has background check
Edward has been a phenomenal teacher with my son. My son switched from a student saxophone to a professional trumpet with no experience. I was concerned initially with my son not starting with a student model, but Edward reassured us that he would be fine. Boy has he under Edward's guidance! I don't even have to pressure my son to practice. He is progressing strong with Edward's instruction. I recommend his services. Thanks again!
Our first lesson with Edward was great! He is patient, professional and thoughtful. Looking forward to many more!
Edward is a very engaging and patient teacher for my elementary school son. My son plays trumpet in his school band, and often brings his trumpet issues to Edward, and Edward works on his problems, from diagnosis to solutions. Edward is also helping him with his technique, and introducing new concepts to him. Thanks, Edward!
