Review for Fine Arts Chamber Players / Basically Beethoven, Dallas, TX, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I am a member of the FACP teaching staff. I have had the privilege to teach at some of the finest universities in the country but I have never had a more rewarding teaching experience than instructing beginning violin students through the FACP program at Lowe Elementary.English is the second language for most of the students at Lowe and some of the students struggle academically.Happily we have succeeded in teaching the violin to students at all levels of academic competence, often to the astonishment of their other teachers.We give these children pride as well as the ability to make music, perform on a stage and work with one another.They are the Lowe community of violinists.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

seeing the respect given to the 3rd and 4th grade children by the teachers and administrators at the school when they visit our classroom. The children can do something that the adults cannot.It is very satisfying for everyone.

Ways to make it better...

I had to comply with fewer DISD rules.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

funding
