I began studying piano after I was six. I’m eight now. In our family, we love music. It has grow to be an enormous a part of our household ever since my older brother, Henry, and I began taking part in piano. We prefer to play within the mornings earlier than college, and generally we even play for our canine, Brutus—he’s an awesome listener! Henry has been taking piano classes at South Shore Conservatory with Mr. Jeff for 3 years. He additionally performs cello.

I made a decision to study the piano as a result of my brother performs and I assumed it appeared actually enjoyable… And it was! The first-class I took at South Shore Conservatory was Summer Piano in July of 2024. Then I began taking Piano FUNdamentals with Ms. Anne, who makes studying piano enjoyable. Her class makes everybody really feel glad, particularly once we play video games. In her class, I discovered the notes on the piano, how one can learn some music, how one can hold a beat, and how one can play “Ode to Joy.” It was enjoyable as a result of all of us discovered collectively, and it made me excited to come back each week.

After I discovered fundamental abilities, we knew it was time for me to maneuver on to non-public piano classes. Since I had tagged alongside to so lots of my brother’s classes, Mr. Jeff and I already knew one another, so it made sense to take classes from him as properly. Watching Henry play made me excited to begin studying with Mr. Jeff too. Where I had already discovered lots from Ms. Anne’s class, making the soar to one-to-one classes was easy. The songs had been straightforward firstly after which acquired more difficult as I turned a greater participant.

Mr. Jeff is a good trainer and makes classes enjoyable. He teaches me new songs that problem me, however he additionally helps me when one thing is difficult. I additionally take pleasure in performing in scholar recitals. Mr. Jeff encourages me to play each time there’s one developing. This previous March, I participated within the SSC Spotlight Celebration at Barnes & Noble Derby Street Shops. I performed two songs in entrance of an viewers, which was a rewarding expertise. Afterward, I acquired to purchase a ebook, which made the expertise even higher!

I wish to hold getting higher so I can play songs for a crowd in the future. I take pleasure in entertaining individuals. I actually wish to study extra Beethoven. I might advocate college students take FUNdamentals courses earlier than committing to non-public classes as a result of it’s a good way to study the fundamentals, make associates, and see should you take pleasure in piano.
