I had one. He has a Ph.D in brass instruction, I believe. I was with him for two years. I had progress, but I'm doing fine on my own, right now. Personally, I didn't come along as well as I would've hoped for two years. Now that I look back, I think his playing and mine didn't really match had a little to do with it.
