Music Quote by Nick Ambrosino
““While you may see yourself as a teacher of the subject music, you are so much more! You are a teacher of people; that is your true specialization, not just the subject of music. Yes, when students come to you, they want to learn a special set of skills but, as an imperative compliment to that specific skill set, you teach them how to learn, how to grow. What an incredible gift that is!””
