Suzanne Tapley is a piano parent from my own studio in East Texas. Her daughter, Ashlynn, showed an interest in the arts as a young child. Suzanne gave her opportunities to experience the arts in many areas: art, ballet, band, piano, etc.
Piano lessons have helped Ashlynn overcome shyness by performing in piano recitals and school talent show and other activities. This will serve her well as she grows and must present reports in college and professionally.
A word of advice for new piano parents:
Don’t let your child quit too soon.
Finish your commitments.
Frustration is okay. If something is worth learning, it is worth working for.
