Student of the Week - Sarah Orr
Sarah Orr is this week’s Student of the Week! 

“I have loved the sound of the piano for such a long time. I took 2 years of lessons in high school and didn’t get very far with it. Piano felt so unachievable — until I came across Ridley Academy and felt incredibly inspired. It was the day before my birthday, so I decided to treat myself and purchase the program. It had been years since I’d played!
“Ridley Academy has given me both the confidence and hope that I can play the piano again. Sharing my videos in the Ridley Academy Facebook Community has really been a huge step for me and it has built the confidence needed to also share my videos with friends — which is something I never did before. The encouragement and support really keep me going when I start to feel stuck.
“I’ve realized it’s not just about discipline. With the right teaching methods, I know I can go far and the Ridley teaching method makes such a huge difference. I now feel free to let my creativity soar with the skills Ridley Academy has taught me. I’m truly enjoying this process of musical growth.”
