Greetings,

I want to say that I am grateful that Ms. Dorothy Roffman is in the profession of helping others. For us teachers, sacrifice and patience are essential to achieve success, the greater talant.

Her daughter, Sharon Roffman, taught me how to read music at Kean University in fall of 2006 and spring of 2007.

Despite supporting my mother, who is a single parent, and my siblings, Sharon was very understanding of my concerns and my apparent inability to practice for my lessons.

You know what's hard, is practicing 8 hours a day and being able to play anything and not getting a job because your Jewish!

I was only speaking as someone who can play the violin at the highest level. Not someone who is commited to teaching small children probably because she can't play the violin at a professional level.

I would like to admit that I am ignorant of her. I congratulate her experience with small children. She proves that you don't have to be able to play at a concert soloist level to be a good teacher. It's too bad that people like me who can play anything at the highest level are considered ignorant and garbage.

I beg your pardon. I am not familiar with her. She could have a great reputation and be a great violinist. But, the way she flipped her fingers (too much wasted motion), I could'nt tell if she was serious. I would like to hear her Pagannini Caprices.
