Parent Testimonials
Mrs. Pat maintains open communication with her students’ parents about their student’s cellistic growth.
“Mrs. Pat was our son’s first cello teacher. She was kind, patient, and very attuned to our son’s needs. She recognized his strengths right away and always made lessons fun. Mrs. Pat is still our son’s favorite teacher and he now attends one of the nation’s top performing arts high schools as a cellist. She nurtured his love of music from an early age and we are so grateful to have found her.”
“Mrs. Pat is my son’s first cello teacher. She was fun, loving, and patient. My son loved her ‘Sock Awards’ (as a ‘knocking-her-sock-off award’. She had definitely lit the fire for my son’s love for the cello!”
“I highly recommend Pat as a cello teacher because of her high level of experience and amazing personality. She was not the first teacher for my daughter but by far the best one. It truly depends on a teacher and their ability to teach if the child will pursue music in the future. If not for Pat and her strong commitment to my daughter, my daughter wouldn’t be able to play at weddings and church worship groups right now. Pat has this musical aura that is contagious. I wish each child would have such a great cello mentor like my daughter does. Thank you Mrs.Pat for your dedication to my daughter’s success.”
“Pat was my daughter’s cello teacher during her middle school and high school. Pat was always welcoming and invited parents to sit in the lesson if they wished to. During the lessons, I could see, hear and feel her love of music as well as her patience with her students.
During my daughter’s stay in the hospital, she went above and beyond to bring her electric cello to the hospital to comfort her and spend time with her. She even taught her lessons outside of music, such as crocheting and brought her many books to read to keep her occupied. We really appreciate her deep empathy my daughter during our most difficult time. The way Pat has impacted our lives goes far beyond music and we are so grateful for all that she has done for us.”
