Great instructor! Karl provides quality material and excellent feedback that has helped improve my trombone playing. He curates the lessons to my interests while still pushing my playing skills to its limits. I definitely recommend lessons with Karl!
He is kind flexible, and has graet tips and instruction to help you improve and learn.
Fantastic! He picked up on my skill level right away and tailored the lesson specifically for me. Would definitely recommend!
