Heather L. says, "My daughter has been taking classes at Stook U Music for about a month, and we’ve had a great experience. They’ve been incredibly patient with her as she learns—and with me as well. When our second month started, my card was declined due to my bank issuing a new one. Instead of disrupting her lessons, they reached out to me directly and assured me that going forward they would contact me if there was ever an issue, rather than removing her from class. That level of communication and understanding really stood out. They were kind and patient throughout the entire process and even went above and beyond by helping me explore lessons for myself—offering discounts, options, and following up with zero pressure. It’s clear they genuinely care about their students and families. I highly recommend Stook U Music."See more

Cj V. says, "Robert was incredible to work with! He did a great job understanding where I was in my guitar playing journey and tailored our lessons specifically to help me get better. He is extremely knowledgeable as a guitar player and was able to relate to all of the different types of music that I was trying to play. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to further their guitar skills!"See more

Jack A. says, "I've been taking guitar lessons from Will for a year or so and cannot recommend him enough. Coming in I had a tiny bit of experience with the guitar, but will made sure to cover all of the foundational techniques so that I felt well supported in my abilities. He's clearly a fantastic musician in addition to being a patient teacher, and I've loved getting to pick his brain about some of my favorite songs and the guitar concepts that go into them. Whether you're a beginner or have been playing for a few years I think Will is a great fit, because he really meets you where you're at with each lesson. I can't wait to keep getting better and learning from him!"See more

Altavia G. says, "Since working with Ken and Tiffany I have seen so much growth and maturity in my voice. I must mention that it has only been two months since I started lessons with Ken. Ken is an amazing vocal coach, he takes the time to learn his students and structures his teaching style to fit their needs. They both are professional and make the experience seamless for new and developing singer. Thank you Ken and Tiffany. I am forever grateful. ❤️"See more

Caleb S. says, "I have been playing guitar lightly on and off for 30 years. I have been around guitar enough to somewhat discern talent and skill. When I decided I wanted to start over and learn classical guitar from a professional teacher I went hunting for a great teacher. Before starting lessons with Peter I met with a couple other guitar teachers and gauged them against others I have known. I chose Peter because I found him to be everything I was looking for. Peter is smart. He is both a highly skilled player and a talented teacher. He is dedicated to teaching guitar vs teachers who don’t primarily play guitar or teachers who don’t have any training in guitar pedagogy. Peter is a great communicator in general, which has helped us navigate my complicated schedule and tailor my instruction to my needs and interests. Peter seems to be flexible and realistic with the curriculum he devised for me and the goals we set. Peter has a great personality for teaching. In the journey of developing guitar skill, I think he is a great guide. He knows the art, he knows how to teach it, he knows how to do hard things, how to overcome challenges, and he has a deep trove of experiences to draw from in lessons. My lessons with him have been fun, helpful, and well structured. For the kind of guitar playing I am interested in, my search is over, Peter is a great teacher."See more

Munjal S. says, "First, I have to thank Thumbtack for connecting me with Max as Max and I have mutually hired each other for services through Thumbtack. Max originally reached out to me for hypnotherapy, and after building a strong working relationship and genuine rapport, he stepped into the role of my guitar teacher. Learning guitar has been a lifelong dream of mine, and Max has been an incredible teacher. He’s been playing guitar for over 20 years, has studied with multiple teachers, and has performed in several bands, so his depth of experience really shows—not just in his skill, but in how he teaches. His teaching style mirrors who he is as a person: patient, understanding, flexible, thoughtful, and deeply encouraging. Within just two months, we’re already writing my first original song, which is much faster than I ever expected. I feel genuinely honored to have Max as my guitar teacher, and I give him my highest recommendation to anyone looking to learn guitar—whether you’re a complete beginner or someone wanting to go deeper."See more
