In my view, Tim is the ideal teacher. He’s organized in preparing lessons, patient, and makes sure to match lessons to student interests/goals. He has a strong command of jazz music and distills complicated concepts so they are easy to understand. I’ve played guitar most of my life, including some jazz, but jazz theory didn’t really start to click with me until I studied with Tim.

My playing had plateaued when I began studying with Tim, and he immediately got me moving forward again. His knowledge of jazz piano stylings and vocabulary is enormous, yet he knows just how to break it down into learnable chunks. I would unhesitatingly recommend him to beginners and advanced players alike.

Tim has been one of the most passionate, skilled, dedicated and down-to-earth teachers I've had the privilege to learn from. He's taken me on a discovery of how jazz works, and how my identity fit into its expression. I've been privileged to be his student and see him play live. If you're looking for quality music composition, arrangement, teaching, or performing, Tim definitely has the bar set high.
