"Just wanted to say a huge thank you for yesterday’s course. It was indeed very helpful for me, as I discovered new techniques, material and ideas. Although I have preciously attended a workshop on the Taubman approach for piano, your teaching yesterday refreshed and clarified some areas for me. I’m excited about sharing these concepts with my students. I appreciate all the hard work you put into yesterday’s sessions and the printouts were beautifully set out. The workshop yesterday both inspired me and helped me to be an even better teacher. For that I am so thankful."
