Ryan S. says, "Nate is great to get lessons from! I took guitar lessons for three years and I recommend him for these reasons a couple reasons. He’s very knowledgable about so many different different aspects of playing music and producing music, its impossible to have nothing new to learn or do. He has a wide variety of exercises that helped improve my musicianship. He’s very friendly, and worked to help me best accomplish my music goals. I learned some of my favorite songs with Nate’s help and I can say I improved a lot by doing more and more challenging songs. I also enjoyed asking him questions I had about music and because he’d always be able to explain the answer in a way that makes sense. Nate is the best instructor I’ve had."See more

Ruben Aldana says, "Its been an incredible experience to have Eli as my jazz piano teacher. Ive been able to see concepts much faster than learning on my own. He has profound knowledge and is incredibly talented. He also listens very intently to what Ive been trying to accomplish and does not withhold knowledge. I absolutely recommend him as a teacher. Great person too."See more

Katie C. says, "I had a piano lesson with Dr. Kreeger and we worked together brushing up on piano technique I had lost over the years. Dr. Kreeger was very fast at responding to my request in the Thumbtack app and we were able to set a date and time quickly and efficiently. Our lesson was via Zoom and he watched me play a couple of different pieces I was learning on my own. He was able to encompass all areas of playing piano that if practiced consistently, would help improve my technique over time. We discussed everything from proper posture and set up, body mechanics, and to how to best stylize phrasing of some of the music I was learning. I appreciated his approach to technique and how to practice; he was able to tailor the lesson to meet my specific needs and help me practice more effectively. I hope I can work with him again in the future and would highly recommend him if you are also looking to take piano lessons!"See more

Nicol J. says, "My fifteen-year-old needed help learning the basics of jazz piano. Mark’s lessons are thorough and easy to follow. She was picking up the basics within a couple weeks, and then doing more advanced work within a couple months. He both helped her with her school solos and taught her how to improvise. She’s worked with him on other genres as well. Highly recommend, as he is very encouraging and patient. Will be taking more lessons from him in the future."See more
