The knowledgeable, patient, and friendly environment of the Hampton Academy staff, fellow students, parents/guardians and all that the academy has to offer has played an important role in our family's decision of staying in the VA area another year. We have been blessed by the Hampton Academy experience.

I was looking for a piano teacher for my daughter and son when we moved back from Connecticut to Virginia in 2005. Our neighbor recommended Mr. Redcross, and we have been at Hampton Academy ever since. I am very impressed with the progress of my children's piano lessons and plan on staying with Hampton Academy until they graduate from high school. The teachers are very knowledgeable of their craft and have a nurturing atmosphere as they teach the various skills of playing the piano. I have and will continue to support and recommend Hampton Academy to the future development of our children.

What impresses me the most about Hampton Academy is the way the child and teacher interact, the child is able to discuss the lessons and press for improvement throughout the lessons. My child has participated in church programs displaying what he has learned in his sessions and performed very well... I feel my child has progressed tremendously since beginning lessons four year ago. I would strongly recommend Hampton Academy to others interested.

My daughter showed an interest in music at an early age. Initially she took piano lessons from an older woman who later passed. When trying to find a replacement, Mr. Redcross came highly recommended. My daughter started lessons in April of 2008 with Mr. Redcross. She plays the piano with confidence and has progressed to playing some songs with the church organist on Youth Sunday... I am most impressed with my daughter's progress and I am sure it can only get better.

I want to study performing arts at Hampton Academy because it will help me in the long run in life. It would be a great opportunity for me. This program will give me the right skills that I need. That's why I think Hampton Academy is a good place to study.
