I had a great lesson with Tom. He sent material prior to the lesson, He was also very flexible when I mentioned I need to work on something on the top of what he prepared.

Tom is absolutely the best. Even on days where I blank out or when my creative juice is running low, he always finds a way to make his magic happen. So happy to be his student.
