My first lesson with him was very informative, I cant wait to go back! He went over music theory in great detail as well as went over chord progression with me. He's very patient and has a TON of knowledge to share! He is very talented and I can see myself learning a lot from him. The best part is that he makes the lesson fun! I can see him being perfect for kids as well as adults. He has patience and knowledge for people of all ages.

My daughter is in a College Music Theory class. She was struggling because she has basically no knowledge of music theory. Dr. Beth was able to explain the lessons so that she could easily understand. Dr. Beth was patient and very knowledgeable on the subject. Money well spent. We will use her every time.
