What people are saying

Teach Your Fingers is fantastic! It has many great ideas. Whenever my students complain that they are not playing as well as they think they should, I tell them their fingers are stupid; they don’t have brains but can be trained. Students immediately laugh and relax. They can move forward, enjoying the music more, and feeling less shame.
Karen Monroe Washington

Love your books. My favourite page is "Fingers Are Stupid" in the little Teach Your Fingers book. I quote this one and show the picture most weeks to someone I am teaching. Great work, making the idea of controlling fingers with the brain so clear to be seen.

For a few years now Teach Your Fingers has been my go to authority for “How to practice” ideas.
