Testimonials

My 6 years old son is a natural actor – like, I’m sure, almost every kid of his age. But I myself was very shy when I was a child and hated being on stage. Probably that’s why I was always thinking about a theatre class for my boy. I believe this class will help him prevent and overcome performance anxiety in the future – and it’s so important to be a good performer to have a successful career and happier life nowadays! Tatyana is an amazing teacher – I’m happy we have joined this class! (Ekaterina)

“Я всегда мечтала о занятиях театром для сына. И когда узнала, что в Канате скоро открывается такой курс, сомнений не было – мы записываемся! Татьяна Петровна – талантливый и вдохновленный преподаватель. Занятия помогают ребенку раскрепоститься, развивают речь. В частности, ребенок полюбил скороговорки, которыми я не могла заинтересовать его раньше. В первом семестре они читали по ролям “Балладу о королевском бутерброде”, и сын был королем 🙂 На каждом занятии дети учатся правильно двигаться на сцене, танцуют и даже успевают нарисовать небольшой рисунок. Горячо рекомендую этот курс всем знакомым родителям.” (Екатерина)

“My daughter has been with the Ottawa Fine Arts since September 2016 and she absolutely loves it. She is much more social, remembers things better, and has much more courage in front of a group. She asks me everyday if it’s time for dance class. She adores Miss April.” (Julie)

My kids love Ottawa Fine Arts! They always look forward to their art and violin classes. I have seen their appreciation and love for the arts grow so much. And I am absolutely positive it is because of their art and violin classes. We look forward to continuing with Ottawa Fine Arts in their young and formative years. (Doreen)

I’m an adult violin beginner who has been working with Anna Baksheeva for several months now, and it’s my pleasure to write this testimonial for her. Anna brings such energy and passion to music, and her enthusiasm is both contagious and inspiring. Every lesson I learn how to make my favourite songs sound better. At my age, I will never become a professional musician but Anna strikes the right balance between advancing my musical confidence/skills/theory knowledge and simply enjoying the journey. I always look forward to our lessons and am so happy that violin has become a regular part of my life. (Sharon)
