“In the past 5 years that Nate has been teaching my 17 year old daughter piano, I have been delighted to see her consistently achieve new levels of success under his expert guidance and tuition.  Nate has the ability to relate to, and understand the student to work at a level that challenges, yet also rewards, and I have seen my daughter grow in confidence through her accomplishments.  Nate brings pieces of music that he knows his student will enjoy playing, so it is great to hear my daughter willingly - and confidently - practice Nora Jones, Coldplay, U2 and the Beatles, yet have an understanding of classical music.  Nate is encouraging yet understanding of other commitments in a student's life and is consistent in his dedication, commitment and passion of being fully attentive in teaching.  He is an incredibly gifted musician who has also composed original work on commission.  You will be truly blessed by his work and the impact he has on his student.  It is always a pleasure to see him as he is - without fail - professional, kind, respectful and trustworthy.  And, if you're lucky, he'll play for you too!
