Starting out with the Young Music Teacher Program, I was immediately drawn to the amazing mentorship and the supportive environment for learning. I was given the opportunity to understand how I can provide a strong foundation for students learning piano in both private and group lesson settings. Throughout the program, I’ve received

consistent feedback and support to help me start my teaching journey. The Young Music Teacher Program has allowed me to channel my passion for music while becoming more familiar with piano pedagogy.
