Thank you so much for teaching me over the past few years, you’ve been a wonderful teacher and without you I certainly wouldn’t have done so incredibly well in my music exams! I am so grateful to you for pushing me in my lessons yet keeping them so enjoyable! I am also so thankful for the time you have taken to direct the harp ensemble, as I have really loved being part of it. It’s been such an amazing experience to play and perform a piece I arranged as well! Thank you so much!

Thank you for everything! I don’t know where I’d be without you but there’s no doubt that I wouldn’t be where I am today. The support that you’ve given me over the past 3 years has given me the courage to pursue my dreams and you’ve helped me to achieve things that I never would have thought possible! As I leave for university I will never forget the amazing times I’ve had with you and with the harp ensemble. I have had so much fun performing with everyone and my confidence in my solo playing has improved so much with you! I will be forever grateful for everything you’ve done for me and I can’t wait to come back and cheer on the harp ensemble next year!
Thank you for everything!
