University Student Reflections
The following comments are selected from anonymous university course evaluations.
“I developed a LOT of technical piano skills I had never learned or been taught before. I also learned practicing, performing, and memorizing strategies that completely changed the way I approach learning new music.”
“Dr. Park worked with me on aspects of my musicianship I hadn't thought about before. She helped me improve the areas I knew were weaknesses as well as things she noticed could be developed. It was exciting to keep discovering new things to learn.”
“I learned how to practice outside of class in order to see the most improvement. I am learning how to train my ear to listen to my own playing to identify weaknesses and work on them rather than developing bad habits.”
“As this was a very individual, one-on-one course, Dr. Park did a fantastic job of catering towards my personality and learning style. She was very encouraging and non-judgmental, which helped me a lot because I am already overly self-critical.”
“She had amazing energy at each session and made me want to improve and practice more. She emphasized progress and technical development more than anything. The lessons always went by so fast, a testament to having fun and learning a lot!”
“Professor Park was very encouraging and proactive during lessons. She pushed me to practice more and helped shape my playing to be more musical while also focusing in on technical ideas.”
