Watch Teacher Teach

“Trevin rocks! He is a very skillful, patient and encouraging teacher as well as a highly talented musician. He was very good at gently but firmly pushing us to develop our skills. I would very highly recommend him as a teacher!”

“Not only is Trevin an inspiring musician, he’s a well-prepared, patient teacher who casually adjusts his lessons to accommodate the differing skills and needs of his students.”

“Thank you for such a welcoming and accepting way of teaching. Your encouraging way of accepting mistakes as a path to better learning is so effective. Your class is the highlight of my week.“

“Trevin is a fantastic teacher – very skilled, patient, and supportive. He created a challenging environment but one where I felt supported to take risks. If an idea wasn’t clicking for me, he found other ways to explain or demonstrate it. Class was lots of fun too!“

“Trevin is a wonderful teacher and musician. As a beginner I made significant progress due to his teaching style and guidance. He is always genuine, supportive of his students, and creates a healthy challenge for our learning. Students of all levels would be lucky to have him as a teacher!”

“Trevin is a gem. I have referred other musician friends to him. He’s excellent.“

“Love learning with Trevin. He is a talented musician and banjo teacher, able to bring the best out of his students of any level. He keeps it fun. He’s the best!”

“Trevin created a perfect situation to play and learn. I am so grateful for the opportunity to learn to play music without paper. It is such a privilege to learn from such a fine musician and teacher. “
