Student Letter of Thanks
Dear Mrs. Clement,
Thank you so much for being my piano teacher for so many years. You have taught me so much! My favorite thing to learn was scales. I love memorizing the sharps and flats required for all the different scales. I love playing sonatinas and songs with cool dynamics. One of my favorite things you taught is to NEVER give up on a piece, even when it seems too hard to play. Although some lessons have been [better] than others, I am so glad you never took it easy on me and you always helped me reach my full "piano potential." Now I am practicing some pop songs and Disney songs as well as hymns to play for seminary this fall. Everything you've taught me helps me play more and more. Thank you! ~Ayla Hamblin, Bountiful
Darlene Thomas from Bountiful says...
"Linda produces concert quality players, clear communication and reward system. We've been with her studio for about 4 years and both our boys have excelled under her instruction. Linda genuinely cares about each student's success."
Excellent Communication with Parents
"Linda has been an outstanding teacher to my son. She personalizes the lessons to fit his level and needs. She teaches in a constructive way. She emphasizes skills in theory and technique which strengthen performance. Her studio is well structured and she is excellent at communicating with parents." ~Catherine Van Dam, Bountiful
Clear reward system
"I appreciate Ms. Clement’s strong music education; her focus on teaching sight reading, theory, and technique; and the time she takes to accommodate my son's learning style. She is very kind and patient, yet direct on what she expects from him. She has been easy to work and communicate with, manages the time well and has a very clear reward system that inspires my young pianist." ~Emily Thiriot, Bountiful
Student experiences the joy of playing
"My daughter has attended for four years and we have been very happy with our experience. Her piano teacher is professional and very educated. I also admire Mrs. Clement's passion in the playing of the piano. She takes it to another level of not just "playing" but truly experiencing the feeling of each and every piece. Because of this my daughter feels joy when she plays the piano. I appreciate the fact that theory and technique are focused on. This has greatly helped my daughter improve in her skills and I am sure she will be able to continue to grow. Sight reading is also emphasized as well as group practices that allow the students to interact with each other. Sometimes they learn through piano theory games or they perform for each other. This helps them become stronger in their ability to perform when they have their recitals. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for a qualified piano teacher that can share in the joy of learning as your child discovers the piano.“ ~Jody Neeley, Bountiful
Fortunate to find Linda Clement
"Our teacher is personable, organized and keeps the parents [informed.] She takes the time to teach basic theory, helps set goals for the student and uses the lesson time to fine tune and improve pieces the student thinks he/she knows already. There are regular opportunities to perform in front of other students. We feel very fortunate in finding Linda Clement. She MORE than fulfills our wishes for our granddaughter and has a wonderful relationship with our granddaughter who adores her and listens to her. Mrs. Clements is very gentle but expects a lot from her students. She listens to the student and guides her to be better. She teaches theory as well as proper technic in playing pieces. We are very happy with her and would recommend her highly.“
~Ruth Radmall, Bountiful
