TESTIMONIALS
Daniel teaches all three of my kids different instruments!! My 16 year old takes drums, my 11 year old, piano and my 6 year old, guitar! Even mom sneaks in for lessons! We love Daniel! He has an amazing way of engaging and relating to all ages and makes music fun! My kids learn songs they love~Whether it’s worship or Kanye West or Great balls of fire! They have grown exponentially in their skills and a love for music that will stay with them a life-time.

Daniel has been a fantastic piano teacher! He has a way of being easy-going, motivating, and rigorous all at the same time. His unique ability to teach my daughter to learn to play by chords first really fit her preferred learning method. And he is even flexible in the songs he teaches, allowing her to choose songs that she loves to play! She’s been able to learn a creative blend of Toy story, Jurassic Park, and worship music, all at her pace. In a few short months of learning, my daughter’s ability to play complex chords surpasses my own skills that took me nine years to learn!

We have been so blessed to find Daniel! Our son Zavier is 11 years old. He is very competitive in general, which is great but sometimes he can be competitive with himself. I shared with Daniel some of our son's struggles of being a little hard on himself at times. Daniel has taken everything into account. He makes lessons fun, encourages him, pushes him, slows down to speed up, and takes a break if needed. The outcome has been a very happy 11 year old who seems to be excelling quite rapidly. The response we have heard many times from people who see Zavier play the drums (after 7 lessons) is, "he's a natural". While that may be true, Daniel has pulled that out of him. Daniel is talented and professional. We are grateful and we highly recommend Daniel to everyone!

"I’ve always known that my kids had music and worship “built in” to them at birth. But without someone to draw that out of them, they didn’t go anywhere with it. When Daniel started working with my three oldest kids, they began to thrive immediately, as in the very first lesson! He has a knack for keeping kids engaged, having fun, and growing quickly in their skills."

I've been able to start writing my own songs and learned how to heart-fully and gracefully play piano after just three online lessons! It has become my passion and my deepest and dearest desire to continue growing with him and to fully reach my potential in music!

“Having never taken formal guitar lessons, I didn’t know what to expect from my first lessons with Dan. His patience, encouragement and clear instruction made it a wonderful experience that I would recommend for anyone interested in learning how to play an instrument. I loved the flexibility of being able to meet in person or via video chat, which made fitting a lesson into a busy week possible. Dan has the energy, passion and humor to make what can be a challenging endeavor fun and all around enjoyable!”

"I was reluctant about Victoria (7) doing drum lessons but she’s killing it. She goes on to play every day! Brianna (13) is also loving the new song! She’s picking it up quickly too! So glad Daniel is working with them. I haven’t seen Brianna excel like this since her first teacher."

Daniel is a very gifted instructor! He is a natural in teaching an instrument in a very engaging, fun way. His passion for teaching comes through as he does it with his heart. I had always wanted to learn the piano, and in a very short period I was playing the piano and loving it! As an adult with a full time job and responsibilities, I would have never been able to achieve this with my time restrictions, let alone be able to commute somewhere for lessons. The online lessons are a breakthrough for people like me with time restrictions! Most of all, with each lesson apart from gaining a wealth of knowledge, I come away laughing!! If you want to learn an instrument - give Daniel a call! Very highly recommend him! He is a hidden gem.

"Daniel is a wonderful, knowledgeable teacher with a heart for kids. His engaging and fun style drew my son in right away and he has learned so much.

I have been wanting to learn the guitar for several years, when I found out that Daniel Van Horn was giving lessons, I quickly reserved my spot. Daniel makes it fun and easy to learn, although online, he makes it adaptable and personable as if he is right there in the room. He is a very knowledgable teacher, and I would highly recommend him no matter the instrument!

Daniel is nothing short of amazing! He has been teaching two of my children, ages 7 and 9, and poured into them a passion and love for music. They have learned so much in such a short period of time. Daniel is encouraging, patient and a gifted teacher. He is fun and our kids adore him. Hands down this has been one of the best experiences we have had with an extracurricular!
-Michelle Krieg, OR
Daniel is a wealth of knowledge wrapped up and cleverly disguised in fun. When I took piano lessons in elementary school, I dreaded them each week; as a young adult, my weekly lessons are a highlight. I’d recommend Daniel to music students of all ages.

“My son has been taking lessons from Daniel for a few months and I have seen tremendous improvement in the short period. Daniel has taught him new fun ways to learn playing the piano that seem to resonate well with him. He loves his lessons with Daniel and looks forward to it each week. Daniel has a gift with interacting with his students. He is always encouraging during the lessons and patient when my son struggles with something. What I love the most is, he makes sure my son is having fun while learning. I am so grateful to have found Daniel to teach my son piano!”

Daniel removes the stress from learning new things with great humor. Because he has such a command of music, Daniel can be flexible to your own needs and where you are at musically and take you from there. Laughter is always a part of his music lessons, which helps me a lot! Daniel has given piano lessons to me, my 23 year old and 24-year-old sons- All virtual and online, which works for our lifestyles. Daniel is gifted, and we are so grateful to have him in our lives.

Daniel is a phenomenal teacher! I started out lessons on a whim to get better at drums and have fallen in love with the art of music again. Not only is he knowledgeable in music, but he is very easy to work with! Easily the most fun and encouraging music teacher I’ve had!
