I can tell you about Toby HANKS....;)
I studied for a summer with Toby in Sherman, NY (at his super cool summer home). I progressed immensely with him in a short period of time; mainly because I had a long way to go when I started with him, but I digress. He was a really patient teacher - very hard to please (in a good way), but always very patient and nurturing. He also taught me some very useful exercises that I still do to this day, especially if I haven't been playing for a while and need to get in shape quickly. Highly recommended - I wish I could study with him again :)
