Perfect! Phineas was able to immediately engage our 7 year old which is a huge plus. He was well prepared for lesson one with take-home material and by lesson two, started teaching to our son's abilities and preparing assignments according to his level. Looking forward to continuing learning from Phineas!
Perfect! Phineas is excellent at explaining music theory concepts to me in a way I understand. He's patient, kind, and willing to take the time to make sure I thoroughly understand the content! I highly recommend tutoring with Phineas!

Phineas is a great instructor! On our first lesson he asked me what I was looking for and delivered! He is great at explaining the theory behind the techniques he teaches. He is patient and enthusiastic. Definitely a wonderful piano teacher!
Phineas is an incredible teacher who is both passionate about music and passionate about teaching. Taking a lesson with him feels more like a collaboration where his guidance is always based on my needs. Anyone looking for a relaxed lesson environment that doesn't sacrifice attention to detail should definitely give Phineas a call.
Phineas has an amazing breadth of knowledge, both in music theory and history. He also has a super warm, supportive presence and I can’t wait to keep taking lessons with him!
Phineas is an amazing piano instructor and even in 1 lesson, you will learn so much! I managed to learn how to read music after the first session! He is patient and encouraging to help you do your best! Highly recommend!
