Ben is outstanding! He was my GTA while I was in undergrad and he did amazing things. Ben is very kind and understanding, but knows how to push players to be their very best. He is extremely knowledgeable and is very easy to work with. 5/5, would recommend to anyone!

Ben is an amazing teacher and horn player! He has helped me to reach some of my personal goals, and I’ve seen him do the same for others. He is also just an all around great guy. I highly recommend Ben!

I highly recommend Ben as a teacher! He was my first horn instructor, and he made a huge impact on both my playing and my confidence as a musician. From the beginning, he was easy to work with, made me feel comfortable, and created an environment where I felt supported while still being challenged. His instruction helped me grow in ways I still carry with me. Under his guidance, I was able to attend the Tennessee Governor’s School for the Arts and the Tennessee All-State Clinic, both of which were major musical milestones in my development. Overall, he is encouraging, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely interested in his students' success. Any student would be lucky to study with him.
