Comment:
An extremely intelligent, helpful and friendly prof if you prepare for his class and/or piano lessons. If you don't care, he can tell, and if you do care, he is very open to helping and teaching.

Comment:
Last two classes should have been spent reviewing for final exam, not trying to learn about fugues. One day he grabbed the pencil out of my hand so he could take attendance, which was very rude. He is quite knowledgeable about the subject matter but is picky when it comes to grading the tests. The only grades given are for the 3 tests and final.

Comment:
Yes, he can be a little picky sometimes, but he can also provide helpful suggestions and has a lot of experience in playing the piano. I have improved tremendously at the piano since I started taking lessons from him, especially last semester. My only complaint is that he sometimes forgets my name, but I enjoy taking piano lessons from Dr Sweigart.

Comment:
I do believe that Sweigart is a great piano teacher, but he seems to have trouble relating to his students. My biggest gripe is how he humiliates students in his class. It's unprofessional. I wanted to literally throw up right before every Keyboard Harmony class b/c he made me so nervous.Not cool

Dr. Sweigart doesn't really teach us much... we just kind of read and he expects us to just know it all. Some people can do that; I can't. Oh well, we'll get through the class.

Comment:
He was a fantastic mentor & teacher, and now a peer. Yes, his lessons were difficult, but I always found myself improving and working harder. I'm grateful for the expertise, advice, and caring that he showed me. I won't forget him! (grad. class of '02)

A talented man, but very demanding of students. He has a hard time dealing with people who struggle in his courses.

If you love music, practice, have an open heart and mind and if you are the complete void of an ego, you will have a wonderful learning experience. If any or all of these requirements do not apply to you, don't walk, just run away because you are doomed!
