AMEB Success
Congratulations all 2022 AMEB exam students! A+ grades were achieved at every level examined this year in violin and cello: Grade 5, 6, 7 and Certificate
I have been teaching Suzuki Method and AMEB violin and cello to students aged 3+ in beautiful Armidale New South Wales, Australia since 2008.
All Heart Strings students enjoy a high level of dedicated, nurturing guidance to achieve outstanding AMEB results (9/9 A+ grades in 2020), Suzuki Graduation levels, outstanding achievement at local Eisteddfods and successful applications to nationally recognised orchestral programs such as the Australian Chamber Orchestra Academy in both violin and cello and The Australian Youth Orchestra Young Symphonists.

I attended the PLC String Soiree last night and just wanted to congratulate you on the the quality of work from your studio. Your students were so very well prepared and most of all, I loved listening to and watching the engagement with the works they were playing.
Your students are all so well prepared and set up behind their instruments but the fact that their musical understanding is clearly a priority speaks volumes for what you must be teaching them.
I can’t thank you enough for all the time, care and attention you put into my visit. I so much enjoyed hearing your students. You are a very gifted teacher with a vocation for bringing music to children and what you are achieving is really wonderful.
Your teaching skills and insistence on high standards saw a marked improvement in your students’ performances. Thank you for ‘raising the bar’.
Thanks for everything you do to make this whole experience so much more than just learning how to play for Laura and I. I really feel blessed to be a part of it all.
Congratulations on yet another magnificent concert. The students are your glory! You really shine through them. You are lovely with each of the children and I see so clearly that you care for every one of them. It’s delightful to watch you interacting with the children. We are so grateful for your gentleness and humility…
