"Eamonn O'Hara is an extraordinary teacher, as excellent with kids as he is with adults. With children and adolescents, he is patient, attentive and attuned, able to engage their interest and challenge them to achieve at their highest level. As an adult, my strengths, weaknesses, and learning style are different than that of my children. Eamonn has been wonderfully responsive to these differences, building on the positive aspects of my playing while helping me focus on the important particulars that raise my playing to each new level. Among other things, Eamonn has many ways of breaking down a section of music so that not only are the technical difficulties more easily mastered, but one's sense of confidence more readily grows. It should also be noted that Eamonn is an accomplished performer, thus able to teach not only technical mastery but the nuances that make music-making beautiful."
