Both of my boys have recently started taking lessons with James from the beginning of this year. From my first initial call in January to inquire about piano lessons and trumpet exam lessons, James was extremely patient, informative, polite and eager to assist me with my many queries.
From that first call I was made to feel welcomed, understood and relieved that I had found a teacher that would provide the best for my boys and their musical journey.
I have an 18 year old son who is currently studying Grade 8 piano and completing his Music 2 for HSC and another 15 year old son who has just completed his Grade 6 trumpet exam.
Both of my sons thoroughly enjoy their lessons with James each week.They find him approachable, easy to talk to and a great listener when discussing any musical problems.
Each lesson is productive and a detailed lesson break down is sent to me each week so I am kept up to date of their progress, homework and any additional information my children may need.
James accompanied my son on the piano and provided him with the skills, knowledge and confidence to complete his Grade 6 trumpet exam which he received an A Honours.James has also been an amazing piano teacher guiding, nurturing and providing extremely valuable feedback with my eldest son whilst working on various components of the HSC Music 2 course.My son received 90% recently on his trail performance exam with the help of James.
I can not recommend James highly enough with what he has provided and allowed my sons to produce with their music.
He is a wonderful teacher always going above and beyond his normal lesson times to help my children.
If you are looking for a teacher that is affordable, knowledgeable, approachable and shows such enthusiasm and passion to teach music to young people then definitely please give James a call.
He is truly remarkable!
