Kirsche, Atticus and Oliver

"Michael Rubin taught both of my sons for one semester when they were home schooled and his work with them during that short time period opened up new worlds of musical ability and exploration that have been continuously ongoing ever since! He introduced the younger one to the scales on the keyboard and ukelele in a way that was efficient, clear, concise and yet still playful and engaging. He helped my older son, who already had years of classical training on cello and was self teaching himself guitar, to learn to feel comfortable improvising, composing and jamming with other musicians. I especially loved how Rubin could give my son both the academic music theorist's perspective AND the down and dirty musician on the streets version of playing with others."
