Moosewood Music, LLC

As an adult with zero musical experience, I knew I needed a patient and fun teacher. Randy is the perfect instructor. He makes lessons fun and motivates me to go out of my comfort zone. I have gained confidence in playing music and have learned so much from him. I would highly recommend him for anyone interested in learning music. He's the best!

I am obviously more than satisfied with the progress my son has made as a student @ Moosewood working under Randy. I would highly recommend Randy to my family, friends, and clients!

However at the end of the day in 2018 you need to add more value than just how well you equip your students to handle learning and playing music and Randy absolutely brings more to the table then just being a music teacher.

Randy has been working with my son for about 3 years now and we have just loved the journey up to this point! He is a great teacher and an even better guy. He understands the most important thing about teaching kids is that he needs to both treat them like equals and he needs to make sure he also keeps it fun. He succeeds in doing this time and time again.

My son plays three sports and at one point or another he has gotten burned out and asked if he can miss a practice, this has never happened working with Randy because he enjoys his time with Randy that much!

I asked my son Shay to say a couple things about Randy and he told me:

1. He really enjoys talking to Randy and having him as his teacher
2. If Randy couldnt be his teacher he would retire from piano

If thats not a winning recommendation I am not sure what is. Straight from the source!

Randy is not a conventional teacher which is why he is such a great person to learn music from. He is not the teacher that everyone thinks of when you think of taking piano lessons. He is very approachable, and FUN.

Bottom line time. If you want to have fun learning how to play music from a great dude, Randy at Moosewood is your guy!!!

Mr. Randy has been a wonderful teacher for our daughter. She has ADHD and his non-traditional methods have helped her learn so much. He knows how to work with her and maintain her interest. She has gained skills and confidence.

My son has worked with Randy for a couple of years now and he is still as engaged as he ever was. My son's talents have really begun to blossom and I believe that Randy's unique ability to connect with and motivate him are the key. I'm grateful to have found him!

My 4 y.o. son and I love our lessons with MM!

It's a mom and child format. So Mr. Randy teaches us together. We had several lessons at the recording studio, and now we do our lessons via skype.

My son really enjoys recoding his voice and his piano. The online format is fun, effective and saves us time. The teacher is also very flexiable with the schedule and make-ups.

Randy helps bring music to life for my daughter. He's open to input and discussion on approach and technique, and most importantly, he's genuinely cares about his students.

I've been working with Randy over the 4 months on singing (I'm a total novice) and an intro to piano. I have found him an excellent instructor both in his depth and breadth of knowledge, and his ability to transfer that in plain english is outstanding. I am far beyond what I'd thought I'd accomplish. I credit that to his approach using live streaming instead of prerecorded videos. It's so much more interactive and there is nothing like playing or singing a piece and getting immediate feedback. So many things are revealed in the back and forth that lead to the understanding of what you're doing, instead of just rote memorization.

As someone is his early 60's who wanted to learn some things that I'd put on hold for many years, I'd highly recommend Randy as a way to achieve those goals.

My daughter loves her music lessons with Randy.. She's gone from being painfully shy about singing in front of anyone to performing with a chorus, in a musical theater production and even singing at a local open mic night.

Learning music fundamentals and bettering my overall abilities of playing the piano and singing. I'm most definitely enjoying the course as it is very engaging and so enriched with the appropriate information needed to better my knowledge of the fundamentals of music. Each session has a perfect balance of both education through lecture and through the constructive criticism provided after singing and playing the piano during the lesson.

Since I worked on my speaking voice with Randy, my phone’s voice recognition actually works. It is wonderful, now it understands me!

Randy can help anyone find their unique voice and enjoy making music!
