Dr. Hirshfield is a great teacher and a hilarious guy. Though really very serious and a thorough teacher, he makes the class laugh a lot with his quirkiness. Always there to help, Hirshfield is a caring professor, not to mention an excellent pianist.

Comment:
Best theory professor ever. I never thought I would understand theory, but I got a B in the class my doing all the homeworks and having him double check them the day before they were due. Be respectful, look him in the eyes when you speak, and show up on time. He's the best.

Great teacher. Extremely funny, and knows a lot about theory. Make sure to go to class and take good notes. Also an excellent pianist. Participate in class, and see him for extra help if the material covered in class gets too difficult. He's very understanding, but takes off points for erros, so take your time during quizzes and exams. Loved it!

I love Dr. Hirschfield. His little jokes definitely keep me going. I had piano with him in the fall, which was so fun. I can't wait for theory next semester.

Makes theory tolerable. Not exciting, but holds your attention if you like dry humor. A really nice person. Very clear, very helpful, and not too hard.

Dr. Hirshfield has so much to offer and he is a very patient, understanding professor. He's always willing to listen and help students out, and his sense of humor is one of a kind...and he is the only professor who can pull off the pink clothes.
