I would like to extend a HUGE Thank You 
to all my students and their parents.

You have all done extremely well in exams this year.
This is due to your practise, persistence, and patience 
(especially with the new general knowledge requirements).

I am especially proud of the senior students that have done their 
AMEB 7th Grade and 8th Grade exams this year. 
The LOWEST mark attained was HONOURS.

Here are some comments made by different examiners from 
three different AMEB series, as well as the AIM exams, and our own exams.

Thank you for making my teaching so enjoyable and worthwhile!

A conscientious approach to your piano studies is obvious, 
and the playing technically assured. There was always musical meaning in the presentation. Enjoyable playing, showing intelligence and care.
