Dear Manhattan Piano Academy Community,

As we start a new school year, we hope you had a fun summer holiday and are ready to push forward with the rest of the year. Please see the details of the August news below.

1. Calendar
We are looking forward to another year full of music with all of you beautiful people within Manhattan Piano Academy Community.

Please mark your calendar for our school recital and rehearsals this year and make sure to attend as many informal performances as you can.

We are looking forward to our next informal performance day in August.

4. Teacher’s News

As many of you know already, teacher Gabriel is moving on with his new

career as a school counselor, something he has been studying the last couple of years.

As much as we are happy to see him moving forward in his life with his

personal and professional goals, we will definitely miss having him at Golden Key Piano School.

Gabriel has been working with us since 2016 and after a year of living in Paris, he came back to the Bay Area and rejoined our teacher’s team. Gabriel has grown a lot as a teacher during these years and has been on our Examiner Faculty team since before his Paris stay and after.

The good news is that Gabriel is still living close by and he said he will stop

by to say hi and maybe even help us with substituting in summer times.

As we are wishing Gabriel the best in his new career we are hoping to see him back in one way or another.

5. Students’ News

We would like to congratulate Eileen for passing her Level 6 exam at the Royal Conservatory of Music.

We cannot wait to see how much farther you will go.

6. Referral System

Many thanks for referrals!

We have been registering students who were referred to us by current or former students of Golden Key Piano School. Believe it or not, we have even had referrals from those who are just starting their own lessons at Golden Key Piano School. We are flattered and grateful for the confidence that our students and their families have in our ability to teach.

To return the favor, for each student that is referred, we will:

• Add $50 to our scholarship fund to make our quality lessons available to a wider community.
• Waive the $30 registration fee for your friend as a welcome gift to our school.
• Send you a thank you gift.
