February 2025 Students of the Month

Meera D.

"I am thrilled to recognize Meera as a Student of the Month! Meera recently achieved a major milestone with her performance debut at our Friendship Concert. She overcame her stage fright with courage and determination, delivering a beautiful performance and truly enjoying the process. 

She also hasn't missed a chance to be a super practicer since day one. Week after week, Meera demonstrates consistent focus and discipline, making steady progress in her musical journey. What really makes Meera shine is how she tackles challenges. She’s always ready to take on difficult pieces and approaches them with determination and a “can-do” attitude. No matter how tricky a piece might be, she doesn’t back down and keeps working until she masters it.

Congratulations, Meera—you’ve accomplished so much, and we can’t wait to see what’s next on your musical journey!" — Ms. Yujung

"I’m so excited to be a student of the month at Orpheus! Ms. Yujung has helped me complete my goals and get through the challenging parts of piano. She is an awesome teacher and never gives up on me. I was really worried about my first friendship concert with my brother, but she helped me through it, and it was so fun!" — Meera D.

Rowen B.

"I’m excited to nominate Rowen as a student of the month! She has been playing piano for 3 years now and her growth as a pianist/musician has been such a joy to watch and be part of! Her love for music is evident in her excitement not only to continue learning new and more complicated repertoire but also in sharing it with others, especially as sweet surprises to her family.

​Rowen is determined, resilient, and passionate, characteristics I’ve seen flourishing in her musical journey and as a person. I’m very proud of all her hard work and I am excited to see what she’ll accomplish next!" — Ms. Gloria

​"I am honoured that Ms. Gloria nominated me for student of the month. It is very exciting for me. Ms. Gloria is funny, kind, and supportive if I make a mistake. I am very glad that she is my teacher and I love playing piano with her. It makes me feel so happy and it's even better when Ms. Gloria is teaching it." — Rowen B.

Reyansh A.

"Reyansh has been studying with me since last July and has demonstrated remarkable improvement and dedication to music during this time. He worked diligently and passed his Musical Journey exam with excellent grades. Over the break, he continued to work on his musical project and is fully prepared to begin learning new music in January.

Reyansh brings sunshine to my studio with his vibrant spirit and positive attitude. I have always admired his eagerness to learn and his strong commitment to growth. It has been a joy to guide him on his musical journey, and I am truly proud to be a part of his progress here at Orpheus." – Ms. Faith

"Thank you so much Ms. Faith for your nomination. I’m very happy to have you as my music teacher. You are always very nice, forgiving, patient, and joyful during our lessons. Thank you for all the help during my musical journey exam. You are the best teacher in the whole wide world." — Reyansh A.
