Mr. Hood’s love of music and of exposing his students to a variety of music and culture is evident in his teaching. He gets to know his students and their interests, and makes piano lessons fun and something to look forward to!

Mr. Nathan is amazing with our son. He is firm yet caring. Our son looks forward to piano every time and really enjoys each session. We are very happy with his progress.

Nathan is really knowledgable about vocal performance! He’s helped me with lots of auditions and I feel like he’s helped me grow as a singer. I’ve really enjoyed being able to learn from him from home during the pandemic, and he’s very accommodating for busy schedules!

Nathan has been my 14 year old son’s voice coach for the past two years. He is so great at engaging him and finding material that not only interests my teenage son but also challenges his vocal range. Nathan has also taught my 9 year old son piano for the past year and a half. I have been really impressed with how he has been able to teach remotely the past year and keep my son not only learning and progressing, but also on task. As a family, we feel incredibly blessed to have heard about Nathan and have him teach our boys. He is kind, enthusiastic and talented.

Nathan Hood has a beautiful ability to transfer his musical knowledge and ability into accessible and attainable teaching. He is able to find ways to deeply encourage the student while also expecting more from them. He sees what they are able to do and helps them attain musical and personal growth. Time with Mr. Nathan Hood is more than a music lesson. He gets to know the student and learns how they learn. and the fruits of that are being able to joyfully learn musical skills and applying yourself to a challenge in a positive way.

As a beginner singer, it can be tough to find a vocal coach you feel comfortable with. After a short period of time, I realized I had done that when I met Nathan.
A very personable coach that does a great job teaching his craft. I’m very pleased to work with Nathan and look forward continuing my singing classes with him.
