    Review of Ron Barnes, April 28, 2009

    With Ron's guidance, I took my old tenor sax out of mothballs more than eight years ago and have been playing it since. Ron has taught me many things about playing music including reading and theory, but I have most appreciated his approach to practice. Ron understands the time constraints an adult faces, so he recommends consistent practice sessions but does not pressure his students to meet time goals.

    With Ron's coaching I was able to meet my personal goal of playing with a great local marching band. I believe that I am on my way to meeting other music goals, including enjoying my tenor sax for the rest of my life - and I have Ron to thank for this.

    Review of Ron Barnes, April 27, 2009

    Ron Barnes has been my daughter's flute teacher for three years. We have been extremely happy with him and wouldn't consider changing. Right from the beginning, Ron emphasized proper posture and finger placement, both extremely critical to playing the flute successfully. My daughter, who is only twelve, now plays with high school musicians. Although she has progressed so far, Ron still has much more to teach her. He is an amazing muscian himself, so there is still lots of room for growth with him as her teacher. I also need to mention how good he is with kids. He's fun and engaging, and imparts his knowlege in a way that makes the lesson a wonderful experience.
