What People say about TSM…
“TSM has been absolutely wonderful for our daughter. She has learned so much and truly enjoys the piano!”
— Ashley P.
“Patrick is very patient with Thaxton but is good at getting his attention at the same time. Patrick spends a lot of time with Thaxton on technique, which he has been missing. In addition, Thaxton responds very well to structure, and he looks forward to lessons with Patrick.”
— TSM Parent
“Thurman is a first-class music school. Jason not only learned piano in Thurman, but also broadened his horizons and made friends. Thurman gave us a wonderful experience. We would also like to thank Meei for her guidance and help. Meei is a very excellent piano teacher. Her good piano skills and patient coaching have allowed Jason to make great progress.”
