Lessons with Mr Tom
I'm Tom Scheffler, a professional music teacher with 25 years
experience teaching a wide variety of instruments.
Learn to Read Music
Once you understand how music is written down on paper, it opens up a whole world of music to explore and play. It’s not that difficult. I can show you how.
Learn to Improvise
Playing by ear is a lot of fun. Learn to unleash your inner creativity through musical improvisation.
Explore Multiple Instruments
Unsure which musical instrument might be right for you or your child? Schedule an Instrument Discovery Experience and try up to four different instruments in one lesson. Explore the instruments of the Brass, Woodwinds, Strings, and Percussion Families, and learn about the unique joys and challenges of each.
Already in school band or orchestra?
Over the years I have helped many students achieve greater success in school band and orchestra. Individual lessons can help students overcome difficulties and get to the next level. Many of my students have progressed to the rank of first chair in their band or orchestra.
