Music Vibes - Keep Culture Alive

Funded May 3, 2022

My students loved the "guitar experience"! My students were excited to try something new and destress after the end of the year exams. When they finished assignments, I would have mini lessons and introduce them to guitar playing. They enjoyed learning chords and strum patterns that sparked a new love for playing an instrument. I could immediately see which students would continue this new passion through the years.

The students were thrilled to know they were able to begin to use the guitars when they first arrived. The guitars arrived with all the essential tools like tuners, straps, sheet notes and picks, therefore the students were ready to learn about how to play the guitar as well as care for them. The students were able to practice responsibility as well as play an instrument. From cleaning to tuning to playing the guitars, my students learned a lot.

The next step is endless since my future students will all be able to enjoy the guitars donated by the donors as well. This hopefully instilling a new passion in students to pick up an instrument and explore their own musical interests and talent.
