## Meet your expert

### My story

Hey, we’re The Academy of Music - music’s been our thing since 1990. Mrs. Samantha D’Costa, our principal, got a shoutout from Trinity College London for two decades of arts work, which was pretty cool. We see music as more than notes, it’s about joy, discipline, and creativity. Our 'Togetherness Initiative' takes students to play for elders, mixing English classics and Hindi hits like 'Pal Pal Pal Pal.' Smiles everywhere, that’s what keeps us going.

### My work

- **Music Lessons for All Ages**: We teach piano, guitar, keyboards, vocals - online or at home, kids and adults both welcome.
- **Trinity College Exam Coaching**: We prep students for Trinity College music exams - Classical, Jazz, Rock & Pop, from Initial to Grade 8.
- **Performance Opportunities**: Our students perform at school, church, and community events - confidence grows on stage.
- **Joyful Learning**: It’s not just about exams. We help students master pieces they love, just for the fun of it.
