Patient and fun teacher!
My 6 year old beginner piano student takes lessons with James and he's a really great teacher! He keeps the lessons fun and engaging, which is hard to do when you're teaching a young child virtually! She is making a ton of progress she she always looks forward to her piano lesson days. I'm glad that she can get lessons from someone with such an in depth musical education for such a reasonably rate. I was skeptical about online music lessons but my daughter is learning faster than she did with her in person lessons with her previous teacher.

Easy to work with
Learned chords and inversions. He opened my eyes to new ways to play chords. He is patient and concerned with my progress. He took time to know what I already knew about music. I play guitar too. It makes it easier to learn faster.

James brings patience and calmness to the sometimes chaotic nature of knowledge
James provided a brief intro to music theory. He was prepared with experience in the platform. He understood that I was stressed and kept a calm mood. I learned a lot and will continue to learn.

Knowledgeable, Patient & Encouraging Tutor
James W is a very patient and detail oriented tutor. He is very knowledgeable about math and encourages those that he is tutoring to believe that they can be also. James W is great. He helped our son prep for a math exam. Our son received his first A on a math test!!
