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

Chris M. says, "I have been taking guitar lessons from Cole Ashmore for the past 10 years. I was a little concerned about starting to learn how to play the guitar from scratch in my early 40's, but I found out very quickly that Cole was absolutely the right person to help me on my guitar/musical journey. Cole is absolutely the best teacher anyone could hope to get for many reasons. He is patient, methodical and keeps things very simple and easy to learn. He also keeps things very light and fun, and is always open to teaching anything I have wanted to learn how to play over the last decade. Another bonus is that Cole is also excellent with his follow up after our lessons to send a quick video re-cap. This goes way above and beyond what was expected and is always a benefit to keep things fresh after our weekly lessons. I would highly recommend taking guitar lessons with Cole. Doesn't matter your age or if you are brand new like I was, an intermediate, or someone who has maybe taken some time away from the guitar and want to start up again. Cole will get you on the right path that works for you and you will be 100% happy with the results."See more
