Introduction
Hi I’m Tim and I would love to work together! I have taught many student from age 4-60+ of all different levels on the piano, guitar, upright and electric bass. I’m grateful for my musical education and I would like to share that with my students. I got my BM (Bachelor of Music) at Oberlin Conservatory and MM at USC. I know every student learns in a different way and I tailor each lesson to that particular student’s learning style. In addition to teaching I’m also an active performer. I have played at such venues venues such as the Paris Ballroom in Las Vegas the Blue Whale, Catalinas jazz club, and Capitol Records just to name a few. I specialize in jazz, pop, r&b, rock and classical.

Tim is an excellent bass teacher and has been a pleasure to work with. He is very accommodating and makes learning the bass a true joy. I tend to have difficulty taking in too much theory at a time, which has never been a problem with Tim. He gets how I want to study, giving me enough to learn the fundamentals but keeping it fun the whole way through. A highlight of each session is when he asks "what song do you want to learn" and no matter what it is, he can reverse engineer the bassline after a quick listen. For me, this is a huge part of why I like working with Tim-- he knows that if I have fun with the instrument, I'll get better in time. I highly recommend Tim for bass lessons!

My daughter has been learning Piano with Mr. Tim for the last 4 years. She had difficulty staying focused and Mr. Tim was very patient with her the whole time and I could see a lot of improvement in her playing and focus. Mr. Tim is very friendly and patient. He encourages the kiddos, but at the same time ensures the student masters a song before moving to a new one. We were very happy with Mr. Tim and will miss him.

Tim was a great Piano teacher to our kids. He is patient and easy going. He even rewarded them with short Pokemon and other theme songs to learn on the Piano, after their lessons.
