|| NOTABLE REVIEWS ||

I have found this course to be clear, executed at a good pace, and very well explained. The content is systematic and logical. The music professor guy (Ben?) is great. I am registered to do the follow-on course. Other than small technical hitch, which was sorted quickly, the technology, presentation and user interface have also been a pleasure to use.

-Peter Smith

Excellent for those beginning the horn. Everything is broken down, the instruction is logical and complete. Very solid educationally.

-Gwen Clark

Ben makes the exercises fun while learning to play your trombone. He is easy to understand and explains things so the student will learn to play properly.

-Michael Breen

It is exactly what I expected. Something simple, direct, with immediate feedback (I can hear and see the teacher and check if I'm doing well). Besides, this basic part is very important. I needed to learn to be a kind of trombone athlete with a well defined study routine that it didnt hurt my mouth, and this course is managing to provide me with that. Thanks to everyone and Professor Ben!
