    About Tom B.

    4.3
    (3)
    Hello! My name is Tom B. and I have been teaching privately in Central Wisconsin for over 5 years. I have a strong passion for percussion, composing, and teaching. Over my life I have studied with Sean Connors, Ryan Korb, Robert Rosen, Tom Ross, Nathaniel Bartlett, David Henzie-Skogen, Paul Seitz, and Vicki Jenks. The experiences I have had performing in concert bands, wind ensembles, orchestras, percussion ensembles, world percussion ensembles, marching band, and jazz combos have influenced my teaching. One thing I believe in is the growth of music education. Everyone learns in a different unique way and my curriculum is based on each students learning style and goals. In the lessons our goal is to have fun while learning more about oneself through music. I hope to share my passion for music with you as one of my takelessons students!

    My son is 8 and wanted to play drums. Tom is very patient with him. My son really enjoys the lessons and looks forward to them each week. Tom is also very easy to work with in scheduling the lessons.
