“Our boys have worked with Douglas for 5 years now; one in viola and the other in violin. Douglas has been an excellent teacher, meeting each boy at their level and tailoring lessons to their individual learning styles.”- Jenny H. Bloomington, IL
Teaching Philosophy
”My son Henry loves learning with Mr. Temples and both his interest and abilities in violin have increased greatly under Mr. Temples’s guidance. Henry and Mr. Temples have studied together for the past two years both in person and virtually. Mr. Temples is extremely flexible and I appreciate him and the musical interest he has helped to grow in my son.”- Kristen L. Bloomington, IL
“I have had 4 violin teachers and Mr. Temples is my favorite and here is why. He is a kind person and I have learned at least 20 songs from him. I have been with him for 2 years. Also, we have even done virtual lessons and they are still very fun. I feel very accomplished after each lesson. Thank You Mr. Temples.”- Henry L. Bloomington, IL
