Els seus estudiants van oscil·lar entre els millors fagotistes d'orquestra, incloent i Sol Schoenbach i als músics de jazz, incloent saxofonistes com Stan Getz i . Els seus 24 Estudis diaris per a fagot, escrits a finals dels anys cinquanta, es consideren exercicis de pràctica de primer nivell per al fagot. Als anys 50, Kovar es va traslladar a Encino, Califòrnia, on va continuar ensenyant gairebé fins al moment de la seva mort, el 1970, per complicacions relacionades amb l'emfisema.
