STUDENTS OF THE MONTH

Susan B., piano
 
"My favorite part of taking piano lessons is getting to visit with Mrs B and Larry every Monday morning via FaceTime. Mrs B gave me a book of Hymns which is my favorite to learn new songs from. The songs are encouraging and uplifting just like Mrs B is! 
 
I started playing the piano at 10 years old and quit a few years later. A good friend who was taking lessons from Mrs. B encouraged me to start taking lessons at 52 years old and I’m so glad I did! It is the highlight of my week! Mrs. B is so encouraging and motivates me to play songs I never thought I could. If I could play another instrument it would be the guitar. 
 
If I could meet any musician it would be Bono from U2. Playing the piano is my greatest joy! I’m so happy to have found Mrs B and Music Makers! "
