March Students of the Month

Maria S.

I want to thank Ms. Margarita for nominating me. I really enjoy playing the piano, and I hope to continue for a long time. I also really enjoy being at Orpheus, I have learned so much!
- Maria S.

Maria is a respectful, well-educated, intelligent, and hardworking student. She is always prepared for the lesson and takes into account all my recommendations. Recently she prepared for the audition in a short time and successfully passed it. One of the works that she prepared was Bach, Two-note Invention in B flat major. Maria had never played polyphonic works before and achieved impressive results in a short period. All these are thanks to her diligence, persistence, and interest in the result. I am very proud of Maria and it is a pleasure to share my experience with her.

​Vihaan V.

Music makes me feel calm and happy. It gives me a lot of joy to see my family smile and clap to my tune, when I play guitar at home. I love playing the guitar and look forward to my lessons with Mr. Brendon every week. I feel lucky to be nominated as student of the month.
- Vihaan V.

Vihaan is a bright, hard working and joyful young musician.  He comes prepared for every single lesson and is always eager to learn the next song or concept.  One of my favorite things about our lessons is that he has a wonderful sense of humor, so we laugh and play our way through the books each week, and always have a great time making progress! Congrats, Vihaan - you’re doing terrific work!

Olivia Y.

I’m really happy and excited about this nomination. I can’t wait to see my picture on the bulletin board. This nomination means that if I keep working hard on my violin skills, I could reach my goal of getting a scholarship for college one day. I’m so proud. I would also like to thank Ms. Makenzie for being such an encouraging teacher to me. She’s the best!
- Olivia Y.

I really enjoy lessons with Olivia! She works hard, is incredibly curious, and I’m so proud of the progress she is making. She has recently performed in her first recital and I am so proud of her and having the courage to do so. I can’t wait to see what beautiful music we play next!

Akshar V.

I'm very happy that I have been selected as the Student of the month. Mr. Andrew always gives me good feedback and great songs to learn. He encourages me to try new things which makes learning more interesting.
- Akshar V.

Akshar is an outstanding student! He has a reputation of inspiring other students to practice (solely based off of how apparent it is that he practices when he plays). He is always over-prepared for every lesson, having worked on more than was asked, and he loves to perform. He has written and recorded songs and arranged music for guitar. He is very eager to push his own abilities and never gets burned out. He also loves playing with other musicians and has a streak of playing the friendship concert each semester. As a teacher, it motivates me to work to get other students to his level!
- Mr. Andrew
