Isaac was fantastic during our initial lesson today! He was highly adaptable and came to our home to provide lessons for me (a 35-year-old beginner), my 40-year-old sister, and my 5-year-old niece. Isaac was prompt, arriving five minutes early, and reached out beforehand to initiate communication and send us additional exercises to practice. Additionally, he was excellent with my young niece, and we all enjoyed a safe and successful lesson wearing masks. We look forward to continuing our work with him in the future!

Isaac has reignited my 14-year-old son's passion for playing the saxophone, which he hadn't touched in over a year. His professionalism, patience, motivation, positivity, attentiveness, involvement, and exceptional talent make him an excellent music coach. My son eagerly anticipates his classes and is finally motivated to improve as a saxophonist. We feel fortunate to have found Isaac, and we are keeping him!
