Letters from my students and their parents over the years

“My children have both grown so much as musicians…”

Mary,
I really want to thank you for everything you have done for our family this year. Since we have moved around the country quite a bit, we have had four different Suzuki piano teachers. You are miles above all of the rest. My children have both grown so much as musicians this year. I am particularly thrilled with my 10-year-old’s progress. In one short year, his understanding of music and theory has truly exploded. With your help, he has become a musician, instead of just a child taking piano lessons. He has exceeded my expectations under your mentorship. You will be sorely missed when our family moves!

“…positive, gracious, supportive, understanding, and caring…”

Dear Ms. Mary,
I am beyond appreciative of your expertise and support! I can not express how much you have made an impact on me. I am absolutely grateful that I learned how to play the piano and am STILL playing the piano! From when I was a tiny toddler to now, you have been so positive, gracious, supportive, understanding, and caring! You are such an inspiration and bring so much positive energy! I know that every time I look at a piano, I will think of you, and the amazing things that you taught me. Thank you for all that you have done for me and my family over the past 11-12 years.

“Your influence in their little lives has been profound”.

“Dear Mary,
Our musical journey started so long ago. It was meant to be that you came into our lives. I can’t thank you enough for loving my kids and having so much patience. Your influence in their little lives has been profound.”

“…you helped me grow as a musician overall…”

Dear Mary,
I will be leaving for Peabody this Saturday and want to thank you for all your support over the years. Even though I will major in harp, I am ever so grateful to have been your student because of how much you helped me grow as a musician overall. I truly would not have been able to accomplish what I have without you, so from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
