Patrick enthusiasm for the piano is truly infectious! His thorough teaching style makes sure that every student, whether young or old, grasps both the techniques and the sheer joy of playing. I especially appreciated how he guided me through the mechanics of both upright and grand pianos. I can recommend his lessons enough for anyone who’s serious about learning the piano!
