King was my bass teacher for a while and was very kind and patient with me. After teaching me new concepts, he would recheck to make sure I understood what I was learning.
Student A
Hiring King to work with my students does more than help students with music: he is an exceptional role model who understands the struggles students have and is able to relate to them in ways that motivate them to learn. His knowledge, talent, and infinite patience inspires and excites students to reach new heights.

King Dawidalle has worked as a Bass Clinician with my Beginning and Advanced Orchestras,
grades 6-7. He was highly effective in assessing and addressing student’s needs. Students were always eager for his weekly sessions with my bass sections, asking “Is King coming tomorrow?” He was professional in his interaction and management of the kids while maintaining a welcoming, fun, and
comfortable engagement style for students. It was very evident that my bass players benefited from his tutoring musically and in their teamwork as a section. I would highly recommend King as a clinician/tutor for your bass players.
