RSL Certified · Student achievements
People don't always understand the amount of effort it takes to learn an instrument — the tedium and frustration, coming face-to-face with your own weaknesses, and the investment of time that nobody sees.
I'd like to tip my hat to these students, who undertook that journey and arrived at one of the destinations along the way. Each grade listed here represents internationally recognised certification through RSL Awards London — earned through preparation, discipline, and a willingness to be assessed.
This list reflects students I've taught in the Netherlands. It doesn't capture the full picture of exam results from my students in South Africa, whose hard work and dedication I would also like to acknowledge.
