June Students of the Month

Catherine H.

​Thank you, Ms. Sky, for the nomination. I, Catherine Haynes, am very honored to be selected to be the Student of the Month at Orpheus. I would like to thank my teachers and parents for their support and coaching. I love singing and hope that it will always be a part of my life.
- Catherine H.

I nominate Catherine (Cathy/Catt) Haynes as student of the month.  She always has a positive attitude at our lessons!  She practices with intention, as well as focuses during our lessons.  She communicates what goals she met during the week and any questions.  She recently had a beautiful collaboration where she sang "Santa Lucia" with pianist Vanessa Kim for the spring Friendship Concert.  She has also done several performance classes and Musical Journey levels 1 and 2 concerts.  She has recently started to study piano as well.  Congratulations Catt!

I’m so happy to have been nominated! Orpheus has an amazing environment to learn and laugh and I am so grateful that I get to be a part of it! Ms. Chelsea is an amazing teacher and it’s been great working with her!
- Moukthika N.

It is my great pleasure to nominate Moukthika for Student of the Month! She has such a great attitude and radiates excitement in all her lessons. She's always the first to sign up for any event, often even volunteering to help out with the setup and execution, beyond just performing, and she is so open and quick to implement feedback. It's been such a joy to see how much she's grown over the years, no doubt due to her hard work and motivation. Keep up the great work! Thank you for making music with me!

Matt X.

It's an incredible honor on being nominated for Students of the Month. Music is my true passion and I am happy to take on new challenges and push myself to new heights, constantly seeking excellence. Being recognized for my dedication feels absolutely amazing.
- Matt X.

​Matt is developing a great musical ear and efficient guitar technique. His reading, writing and performance skills express his intellect and hard work and his energy showcases his desire to learn. Matt was able to adapt to an impromptu change in a recital and still gave a great performance. Keep up the awesome work!

Sofia M.

Thank you, Ms. Joanna, for nominating me! Music is my happy place, and I have fun in our Friday lessons singing and playing piano duets with you. I am so lucky to get to learn from you.
- Sofia M.

Sofia is a hard working, determined, and intelligent student. She shows me her love of music by eagerly over-preparing the songs we’ve learned together in her lesson, adding cool ostinatos and modulations to pieces like Los Pollitos and Alouette. She also loves to sing while she plays, and as a voice and piano teacher that brings me lots of joy! Thanks for being such a joy to work with, Sofia. Sending positive vibes to you and your family! 
- Ms. Joanna
