TESTIMONIALS

Theresa

“I was a piano student of Mrs. Williams for eight years, progressing from Grade 3 to successfully completing my RCM Grade 10 examination with 1st Class Honours. Mrs. Williams is patient and encouraging, teaching not only the practical aspects of piano playing, but also the joy of making music. She is a punctual, thorough, and organized teacher who communicates clearly, is easy to talk to and open to the student’s questions and music preferences. Her endless creative suggestions for practicing helped me to understand and enjoy exploring the character and style of each piece. I always felt well-prepared for the RCM exams, including the technical requirements and ear training portions, which we would practice and test frequently before the exam. Her private studio recitals introduced all her students to performance practice and gave us an avenue to share our music. Studying with Mrs. Williams has increased my passion for music, which I continue to share with the community today as a professional musician.”

“I started Piano when I was in grade five. From the very start I found myself in very comfortable environment that not only encouraged musical enjoyment, but also an exploration of a creative passion. In my classes with Mrs. Williams I discovered the beautiful artwork of music, and it has stuck with me for all of these years. Under this warm and welcoming piano experience, I have found that I have always been very eager to play the piano, not only each week in lessons, but also at home. Mrs. Williams has always encouraged music from the heart, and that has made all of the difference when learning, when playing. It has always been about putting ourselves into the music, putting our own heart into the music that we want to hear and play. But beyond that, there is a technique of friendliness that prepares us for recitals, and exams. These lessons are new and exciting each week, and they bring out the best musicians that each of us can be; whether it is classical, country or Broadway, there is music for each of us here.”

“Suzanne has created a love of music and a joy of playing the piano in both of our children. Suzanne has a very kind and patient way of teaching that encourages each students’ unique talent and interest. She has created in our home a lifelong appreciation of music and the piano is a place to relax and express yourself at. We would highly recommend Suzanne as a piano instructor to others.”

Piano has been a part of my life for a long period of time and for many of those years, it has been under the watchful eye of Ms. Williams. In this time, I have come to know her patience, her ability to understand and her passion for piano and music. I will be the first to admit that I definitely struggle to find time to practice but Ms. William’s never ending support and encouragement continues to help me challenge myself to gradually improve. Piano will definitely continue to be a part of my life and I will carry the skills I have learned on with me for years to come. I contribute this all to Ms. Williams and her evident passion for passing on her love of piano to her students.
