Music is a gift for all individual, regardless of background. Music brings a joy and makes people smile. My goals are to assist students to develop musical skills with strong foundation, grow interest, build motivation, and share how to enjoy music. 

Having a good  communication with your teachers helps to make a realistic plan and reach your goal. Once you start taking lessons, regular practice is required. Start from small amount, and gradually establish your practice habit. If you do not see the immediate progress, you will see it later. Performance opportunity is an exciting part of the learning process. Keep sharing your sound and expression with your families, friends, and people in the world. Enjoy your musical journey! - Kanako K. Hitchcock
