Comment:
So this was a LONG time ago. I was his student in 2001, but the experience was so rough for me that I'm rating him today. There was nothing I could do to please this man. Very rigid teaching style; the student-teacher relationship was unilateral in his favor. He's a brilliant pianist, but I wonder why types like these don't just stick to performing

Grade was dropped a full letter because I missed 1/2 of one class due to an illness (complete with a doctor's note!) I tried to rectify this once my grades were received but he was out of the country...and then I graduated. :-/

At first, i had a tough time figuring out his methods, but once i understood what he wanted, it was easy to do well in his class... and he can tell when you don't practice piano!!! don't get on his bad side, b/c i hear he can be a tough one.

Seems nice so far. Gets frustrated when you dont understand. I hear that he can be tough, and i'm already starting to feel that from him.

Mr. Eikner is someone you have to learn how to read. He's different. He does like to talk about himself, though. As a hint, if you need to buy some time, start asking him questions about himself! :)

HE KNOWS SO MUCH!!! Well versed in the subject matter. Very helpful and encouraging (told me to "keep my chin up"). It's ahard to say older Professors are hot,but I bet he created quite a stir in his younger days.
