| “It is indeed amazing to see fate bringing two people together. My mentor, I met you for the first time in my violin lesson. I remember clearly that you have encouraged me to forge ahead bravely and assured me that you would support me at my back no matter what has happened. I am really touched. To me, you are not only my elder and my friend but also a mentor worthy of all people’s commendation.” | “My mentor, thank you for helping me pursue my dream. I have always loved playing the piano and had the intention to work in this field. Mentor, after knowing my intention, you shared with me some information on music and helped me find the solutions when I had problems. I am grateful for your kindness of playing the roles of my friend and my mentor in my life and accompanying me to progress towards my goal.” |
