'Just want to say THANK YOU for the lessons. You have solved problems that have been bugging me for the past 16 years. You are the best teacher that I have come across to date.'

‘Thank you for teaching me to have good posture (occasionally) and to put pressure on muscles most people don't know exist. Oh, and to sing the same note going down as going up. Loudly. And nicely. Did I forget anything? Oh yes, not to conduct myself. I hope you always keep your healthy sense of humour and sense of fun - the best qualities in a good teacher. I always do enjoy my lessons, even when I spend some of them avoiding having my hair pulled or foot being stepped on, in the interests of … science.'
