Upon retirement I took up accordion lessons with David. His lessons provided just the right mix of technique and music theory, along with ample popular music selections. He is very flexible, and besides the technical exercises and music from the Palmer-Hughes series, he will add music that you enjoy with every lesson (popular, jazz, polkas, waltzes, etc.). David simplifies any arrangements if overly difficult for your current skill level. David brings a love of music and enthusiasm for teaching the accordion to every lesson – you won’t be disappointed with his lessons and the experience will add joy to your life.
I had an old accordion sitting around that I had always intended to to play. One day I decided to do an internet search for an instructor, and I couldn’t find one in my area but I found David’s website. He did Skype lessons so I was in luck! I loved taking lessons from David from the start. He’s a super accomplished musician. He gives the perfect amount of encouragement and motivation. I’ve learned so much in a relatively short amount of time studying with David. And I now love playing the accordion!
David is an excellent instructor who uses extremely effective methods to teach the accordion. He continually challenges me to play more difficult versions of songs I know and more difficult material, in general. He never lets me sit on my current skills, but pushes me to be better. This has allowed me to quickly become proficient in my playing. His laid back personality makes for a comfortable setting and I never feel intimated, even if I fail to play a piece correctly. I recommend David for players of all skill levels.
David has been my accordion teacher for many years now and I absolutely love our lessons together. David is fun and engaging and very supportive. He is an incredibly talented musician himself and I have grown tremendously as a musician since beginning our lessons together. I have so much fun during our lessons and always have engaging assignments to work on between lessons. I plan on taking lessons with David for years and years to come!
