One of the best things about my job as a guitar teacher is getting to know children as they grow into young adults. For my most committed students, I get to watch in weekly installments as they develop into truly wonderful people. I have had to say goodbye to many as they finish up high school and head off to college, but none has been a part of my life for as long as Chiara. She’s been consistent week in, week out for the past 11 years — since she was six and I was still relatively new to teaching. She has grown into not only a competent guitarist who uses her skills to serve the children at her church, but a warm, service-oriented young lady with plans to go into the nursing profession. I have deep respect for anyone willing to do that job and am so glad that there are people like her in the world.
Congratulations on all of your accomplishments and best of luck in your college and nursing endeavors, Chiara!
