My Project

As a choir director with over a decade of experience fostering musical excellence and collaboration, I am proud that our school has integrated beginner piano instruction into our curriculum. These classes serve as a foundational tool for developing music literacy, pitch recognition, and rhythm comprehension.

To enhance the learning experience, we seek funding to provide individual headphones for each student in our beginner piano classes.

Access to quality headphones would allow students to focus on their individual practice, reduce classroom noise, and create an environment where they can confidently develop their skills at their own pace.
