My students go to an inner city project LIFT school in Charlotte, North Carolina. This is my third year at this school and I have some incredibly talented students who are very excited to learn about music! I have been fortunate to see them grow as students over the past two years, and I have certainly learned a lot as their music teacher. Having out-dated and not enough instruments to work with certainly presents it's challenges, which is why I rely on generous donors to help give my students the music education they deserve.
