“Dayton started Brighter Minds in September. He enjoys the lobby Smarties when he comes for lessons, his teacher knows how to motivate and encourage him and Brighter Minds has a multitude of opportunities for kids to engage with music at their level. His first concert was fantastic and we’re looking forward to many more. Dayton is eager to earn trophies as he progresses and is reading music more quickly than I could have ever imagined!”
I would like to nominate Dayton Becker for the student spotlight. He is a delight to work with. He is very focused and motivated. He comes to lessons with a great attitude. He always knows his piano pieces very well and remembers to add dynamics and phrasing. Keep up the great work Dayton!
