February 2026 Students of the Month

Astrid M.

"I’m so excited to nominate Astrid for Student of the Month! Her progress this semester has been truly astonishing — even though she has always been such a strong, reliable student. This time, something really clicked. Her chamber music skills especially stood out and one of my favorite things this semester was seeing how genuinely excited she became about learning the classical music she loves. Watching her light up and really connect with the pieces has been such a joy for me as a teacher. I’m so proud of her hard work, positive attitude, and beautiful musicianship. Astrid absolutely deserves this recognition!" — Ms. Yujung

​"I am so excited to be nominated student of the month by Ms. Yujung! Every week after my lesson with her, I feel that my musical knowledge has grown. Ms. Yujung has had a huge impact on me and inspires me to become a better musician. Thanks for being an AMAZING teacher, Ms. Yujung!" — Astrid M.

Miles G.

"Miles just passed his Level 2 Musical Journey test with flying colors and gave a holiday-themed house concert to earn his Level 2 trophy! I'm especially proud of how Miles is always excited to take on new challenges, and I look forward to his continued success!" — Mr. Byron

​“I’m so happy to be a student of the month. I love to learn new songs and new scales. Mr. Byron is really good at playing guitar and teaching me how to get better. I’m glad he’s my teacher because he is funny and nice.”  — Miles G.

Chaitra K.

"Chaitra is student of the month because of her consistent hard work and growth as a musician! She just completed her Kinder Musical Journey recital at Orpheus and beautifully memorized and performed eight songs. She turned five this fall and has demonstrated fantastic musicianship skills given her young age. She brings forward curiosity, a positive attitude, and eagerness to learn at each and every lesson. She has incredible musical aptitude and potential as a pianist and I can’t wait to see her growth continue!" — Ms. Madeline

​"Thank you so much, Ms. Madeline! I feel very happy and proud to be the Student of the Month. I really enjoy learning new songs and playing the piano each week. Thank you for teaching me and helping me learn more. I am excited to play many new songs." — Chaitra K.

Rishaan C.

"Rishaan is a very smart and enthusiastic student who has shown a lot of determination since the beginning of his piano lessons. He loves to be challenged and he not only succeeds in those challenges, he goes even further, showing eagerness to learn more and to play more. Well done, Rishaan, I am very excited to see what would come from this path that you have started so strong!" — Mrs. Dalia

​"I feel really happy and proud to be chosen as Student of the Month. I love learning piano and trying new challenges because it helps me get better. Thank you to Mrs. Dalia and the school for supporting me—I’m excited to keep learning and playing more piano!" — Rishaan C.
