My son absolutely LOVED his lessons with Tal. My son isn’t really a music nerd and Tal was patient with him during all of their lessons. I’ve never met a more well rounded teacher who brings my son out of his shell and encourages him to be creative!
Tal is an excellent piano teacher- very knowledgeable and patient. He helped me improve my playing while focusing on music I love and the lessons are always challenging and enjoyable. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to grow as a musician.
Tal teaches my daughter how to play the clarinet. He’s a true professional with a wonderful approach to working with children. My daughter is making great progress and really enjoys her lessons. I wholeheartedly recommend him
